Maahmaahyadii 18
Somali Bible
18 Kii gooni isu soocaa, wuxuu doondoonaa damaciisa,
Oo xigmadda oo dhanna wuu ku kacaa.
2 Nacasku waxgarashada kuma farxo,
Laakiinse wuxuu ku farxaa uun inuu waxa qalbigiisa ku jira muujiyo.
3 Markii kii shar lahu yimaado waxaa kaloo timaada quudhsasho,
Sharafla'aantana waxaa la timaada ceeb.
4 Nin afkiis erayada ku jiraa waa sida biyo gun dheer,
Oo isha xigmadduna waa sida durdur socda.
5 Ma wanaagsana in kan sharka leh loo eexdo,
Ama in kan xaqa ah garta lagu afgembiyo.
6 Nacaska bushimihiisu waxay keenaan muran,
Oo afkiisuna wuxuu u yeedhaa karbaash.
7 Nacaska afkiisu waa u baabba',
Oo bushimihiisuna naftiisay dabin u noqdaan.
8 Kii xan badan erayadiisu waa sida cunto macaan,
Oo waxay ku degaan meelaha caloosha ugu hooseeya.
9 Kii shuqulkiisa caajis ku ahu,
Wuxuu walaal u yahay kii wax kharriba.
10 Rabbiga magiciisu waa noobiyad xoog leh,
Kii xaq ahu iyaduu ku cararaa, meel sarena wuu ku nabad galaa.
11 Ninkii taajir ah maalkiisu waa u magaalo xoog leh,
Oo waa u derbi dheer sida ay la tahay isaga.
12 Dadka qalbigiisu waa kibraa intaanu baabbi'in ka hor,
Oo sharaftana waxaa ka horraysa is-hoosaysiinta.
13 Kii xaajo ka jawaabaa isagoo aan maqlin,
Waa u nacasnimo iyo ceeb.
14 Nin qalbigiisu waa u adkaysan karaa cudurkiisa,
Laakiinse qalbi jaban bal yaa u dulqaadan kara?
15 Kii miyir leh qalbigiisu wuxuu helaa aqoon,
Oo kuwa caqliga leh dhegtooduna waxay doondoontaa aqoon.
16 Nin hadiyaddiisu meel bay u bannaysaa.
Oo waxay isaga hor keentaa rag waaweyn.
17 Kii dacwaddiisa u hor mara, mid xaq ah baa la moodaa,
Laakiinse deriskiisaa ka daba yimaada oo imtixaama isaga.
18 Saamigu wuxuu joojiyaa murammo,
Oo wuxuu kala kaxeeyaa kuwa xoogga badan.
19 In walaal la xumeeyey la soo celiyo waa ka sii adag tahay in magaalo xoog leh la qabsado,
Oo murammona waa ka xoog badan yihiin qalcad biraheeda.
20 Nin calooshiisu waxay ka buuxsami doontaa midhaha afkiisa,
Oo wuxuu isagu ka dhergi doonaa waxa bushimihiisa u kordha.
21 Geeri iyo nololuba waxay ku jiraan itaalka carrabka,
Oo kuwa jeceluna waxay cuni doonaan midhihiisa.
22 Ku alla kii afo helaa wuxuu helaa wax wanaagsan,
Oo Rabbigana raallinimuu ka helaa.
23 Miskiinku baryootan buu ku hadlaa,
Laakiinse taajirku si qallafsan buu ugu jawaabaa.
24 Ninkii saaxiibbo badsadaa naftiisuu kharribaa,
Laakiin waxaa jira saaxiib walaalkaa kaaga dhow.
Proverbs 18
New International Version
Proverbs 18
New International Version
18 An unfriendly person pursues selfish ends
and against all sound judgment starts quarrels.
2 Fools find no pleasure in understanding
but delight in airing their own opinions.(A)
3 When wickedness comes, so does contempt,
and with shame comes reproach.
4 The words of the mouth are deep waters,(B)
but the fountain of wisdom is a rushing stream.
6 The lips of fools bring them strife,
and their mouths invite a beating.(E)
8 The words of a gossip are like choice morsels;
they go down to the inmost parts.(H)
9 One who is slack in his work
is brother to one who destroys.(I)
11 The wealth of the rich is their fortified city;(L)
they imagine it a wall too high to scale.
12 Before a downfall the heart is haughty,
but humility comes before honor.(M)
13 To answer before listening—
that is folly and shame.(N)
14 The human spirit can endure in sickness,
but a crushed spirit who can bear?(O)
15 The heart of the discerning acquires knowledge,(P)
for the ears of the wise seek it out.
16 A gift(Q) opens the way
and ushers the giver into the presence of the great.
17 In a lawsuit the first to speak seems right,
until someone comes forward and cross-examines.
18 Casting the lot settles disputes(R)
and keeps strong opponents apart.
19 A brother wronged(S) is more unyielding than a fortified city;
disputes are like the barred gates of a citadel.
20 From the fruit of their mouth a person’s stomach is filled;
with the harvest of their lips they are satisfied.(T)
23 The poor plead for mercy,
but the rich answer harshly.
24 One who has unreliable friends soon comes to ruin,
but there is a friend who sticks closer than a brother.(Y)
Proverbs 18
King James Version
Proverbs 18
King James Version
18 Through desire a man, having separated himself, seeketh and intermeddleth with all wisdom.
2 A fool hath no delight in understanding, but that his heart may discover itself.
3 When the wicked cometh, then cometh also contempt, and with ignominy reproach.
4 The words of a man's mouth are as deep waters, and the wellspring of wisdom as a flowing brook.
5 It is not good to accept the person of the wicked, to overthrow the righteous in judgment.
6 A fool's lips enter into contention, and his mouth calleth for strokes.
7 A fool's mouth is his destruction, and his lips are the snare of his soul.
8 The words of a talebearer are as wounds, and they go down into the innermost parts of the belly.
9 He also that is slothful in his work is brother to him that is a great waster.
10 The name of the Lord is a strong tower: the righteous runneth into it, and is safe.
11 The rich man's wealth is his strong city, and as an high wall in his own conceit.
12 Before destruction the heart of man is haughty, and before honour is humility.
13 He that answereth a matter before he heareth it, it is folly and shame unto him.
14 The spirit of a man will sustain his infirmity; but a wounded spirit who can bear?
15 The heart of the prudent getteth knowledge; and the ear of the wise seeketh knowledge.
16 A man's gift maketh room for him, and bringeth him before great men.
17 He that is first in his own cause seemeth just; but his neighbour cometh and searcheth him.
18 The lot causeth contentions to cease, and parteth between the mighty.
19 A brother offended is harder to be won than a strong city: and their contentions are like the bars of a castle.
20 A man's belly shall be satisfied with the fruit of his mouth; and with the increase of his lips shall he be filled.
21 Death and life are in the power of the tongue: and they that love it shall eat the fruit thereof.
22 Whoso findeth a wife findeth a good thing, and obtaineth favour of the Lord.
23 The poor useth intreaties; but the rich answereth roughly.
24 A man that hath friends must shew himself friendly: and there is a friend that sticketh closer than a brother.
