1 “ Behold, my eye has seen all this. My ear has heard and understood it.

Bal eega, waxan oo dhan ishaydu waa aragtay, Dhegtayduna waa maqashay oo way garatay.

2 W hat you know, I know also. I am not inferior to you.

Wixii aad taqaaniin, anna waan aqaan sidoo kale, Anigu idinkama liito innaba.

3 “ Surely I would speak to the Almighty. I desire to reason with God.

Sida xaqiiqada ah waxaan doonayaa inaan Ilaaha Qaadirka ah la hadlo, Oo waxaan jeclahay inaan Ilaah la xaajoodo.

4 B ut you are forgers of lies. You are all physicians of no value.

Laakiinse idinku waxaad tihiin kuwa beenta hindisa, Oo dhammaantiin waxaad tihiin dhakhtarro aan waxtar lahayn.

5 O h that you would be completely silent! Then you would be wise.

Bal maad iska aamustaan! Taasu xigmad bay idiin ahaan lahayd.

6 H ear now my reasoning. Listen to the pleadings of my lips.

Haddaba bal xaajadayda maqla, Oo baryootanka bushimahayga dhegaysta.

7 W ill you speak unrighteously for God, and talk deceitfully for him?

War ma Ilaah aawadiis baad xaqdarro wax ugu odhanaysaan, Oo ma isaga aawadiis baad khiyaano ugu hadlaysaan?

8 W ill you show partiality to him? Will you contend for God?

War ma isagaad u eexanaysaan? Oo ma Ilaah aawadiis baad u diriraysaan?

9 I s it good that he should search you out? Or as one deceives a man, will you deceive him?

War miyey idiin wanaagsan tahay inuu idin baadho? Mase sida nin loo khiyaaneeyo ayaad isaga u khiyaanaynaysaan?

10 H e will surely reprove you if you secretly show partiality.

Sida xaqiiqada ah haddaad qarsoodi dadka ugu kala eexatan Isagu wuu idin canaanan doonaa.

11 S hall not his majesty make you afraid, And his dread fall on you?

War sow sarraysnaantiisu idin cabsiin mayso? Oo sow baqdintiisu idinku dhici mayso?

12 Y our memorable sayings are proverbs of ashes, Your defenses are defenses of clay.

Hadalkiinna xusuusta lahu waa maahmaahyo dambas ah, Oo dhufaysyadiinnuna waa dhufaysyo dhoobo ah.

13 “ Be silent, leave me alone, that I may speak. Let come on me what will.

Haddaba iska aamusa, oo iska kay daaya aan iska hadlee, Oo wixii dhici lahaaba ha igu dheceen.

14 W hy should I take my flesh in my teeth, and put my life in my hand?

Haddaba hilibkayga ayaan ilkahayga ku qaadayaa, Oo noloshaydana gacantaydaan ku ridayaa.

15 B ehold, he will kill me. I have no hope. Nevertheless, I will maintain my ways before him.

Oo in kastoo uu i dilo, weli waan rajaynayaa, Habase yeeshee hortiisaan kula xaajoonayaa.

16 T his also shall be my salvation, that a godless man shall not come before him.

Oo weliba kaasu wuxuu ahaan doonaa badbaadadayda, Waayo, nin aan cibaado lahaynu hortiisa iman maayo.

17 H ear diligently my speech. Let my declaration be in your ears.

Hadalkayga aad u dhegaysta, Oo warramiddaydu dhegihiinna ha gasho.

18 S ee now, I have set my cause in order. I know that I am righteous.

Bal eega, hadda xaalkayga waan soo hagaajiyey, Oo waan ogahay in xaq layga dhigayo.

19 W ho is he who will contend with me? For then would I hold my peace and give up the spirit.

Bal yuu yahay kan ila doodayaa? Waayo, hadda waan iska aamusayaa oo naftuna waa iga dhacaysaa.

20 “ Only don’t do two things to me; then I will not hide myself from your face:

Laba waxyaalood oo keliya ha igu samayn, Oo anna markaas nafsaddayda wejigaaga ka qarin maayo.

21 w ithdraw your hand far from me; and don’t let your terror make me afraid.

Gacantaada iga fogee, Oo waxyaalahaaga laga cabsadona yaanay i bajin.

22 T hen call, and I will answer; or let me speak, and you answer me.

Oo markaas ii yeedh, oo anna waan kuu jawaabi doonaa, Amase anigu aan hadlo oo adigu ii jawaab.

23 H ow many are my iniquities and sins? Make me know my disobedience and my sin.

Bal xumaatooyinkayga iyo dembiyadaydu waa immisa? Bal xadgudubkayga iyo dembigayga i ogeysii.

24 W hy hide you your face, and hold me for your enemy?

Bal maxaad wejigaaga u qarinaysaa, Oo aad iigu haysataa sidii mid cadow kuu ah?

25 W ill you harass a driven leaf? Will you pursue the dry stubble?

Ma waxaad dhibaysaa caleen iska bidaysa? Oo ma waxaad eryanaysaa xaab engegay?

26 F or you write bitter things against me, and make me inherit the iniquities of my youth:

Waayo, waxyaalo qadhaadh baad iga qortaa, Oo waxaad i dhaxalsiisaa xumaatooyinkii dhallinyaranimadayda.

27 Y ou also put my feet in the stocks, and mark all my paths. You set a bound to the soles of my feet,

Oo weliba cagahayga waxaad gelisaa jeebbooyin, Oo jidadkayga oo dhanna waad wada fiirisaa, Cagahaygana xad baad u dhigtaa.

28 t hough I am decaying like a rotten thing, like a garment that is moth-eaten.

Oo waxaan la mid ahay wax qudhmay oo baabba'aya, Iyo sida dhar aboor cunay oo kale.
