Ecclesiastes 9

1 All these things have I considered in my heart, that I might carefully understand them: there are just men and wise men, and their works are in the hand of God: and yet man knoweth not whether he be worthy of love, or hatred:

Ana hige'na ama ana maka zama rezaganena koana, fatgo avu'ava'ma nehia vahe'mo'ene knare antahi'zane vahe'mo'enema, maka zama neha'a zamo'a Anumzamofo azampi me'ne. E'ina hu'neankino mago vahe'ma avesintege avesra huntege'ma hu'zana vahe'mo'a keno antahinora osu'ne.

2 But all things are kept uncertain for the time to come, because all things equally happen to the just and to the wicked, to the good and to the evil, to the clean and to the unclean, to him that offereth victims, and to him that despiseth sacrifices. As the good is, so also is the sinner: as the perjured, so he also that sweareth truth.

Maka fatgo avu'ava'ene vahero, kefo avu'ava'ene vahero, knare vahero, havi vahero, agruhu vahero, agru osu vahero, mono vahero, mono ontahi vahera, ana maka vahe'mo'a mago'zahu kanteke vugahie. Hagi Anumzamofonte'ma huvempama nehaza vahete'ene Anumzamofonte'ma huvempama huzankuma koroma nehaza vahete'enena mago zahu zanke fore hugahie.

3 This is a very great evil among all things that are done under the sun, that the same things happen to all men: whereby also the hearts of the children of men are filled with evil, and with contempt while they live, and afterwards they shall be brought down to hell. (questioned)

Ana maka vahe'motare'ma mago zahu'zama fore'ma nehia zamo'a knarera nosie. E'ina hu'negu vahe'mo'za zamagra'a kegava hu'neza knare avu'avara nosazanki'za zamagra'a zamavesi'zamofo amage'nente'za, ome havizana nehaze. Hagi ana amefira mago'zana omane'neanki, fri'za nevaze.

4 There is no man that liveth always, or that hopeth for this: a living dog is better than a dead lion.

Hianagi kasefa'ma hu'za mani'naza vahe'mokizmia amuha zazmia me'ne. Na'ankure zamagra amanage hu'za nehaze, kasefa huno mani'nea kramo'a fri'nea laionia agatere'ne hu'za nehaze.

5 For the living know that they shall die, but the dead know nothing more, neither have they a reward any more: for the memory of them is forgotten.

Hagi kasefa'ma huta mani'nona vahe'mota, frigahune huta antahi'none. Hianagi fri'naza vahe'mo'za magozankura zamagesa ontahige, mago zamofo antahintahimo'a antahintahi zamifina nomanege'za, vahe'mo'zanena antahi nozamize.

6 Their love also, and their hatred, and their envy are all perished, neither have they any part in this world, and in the work that is done under the sun.

Ana vahe'ma fri'zageno'a vahe'ma zamavesi nezmante'za, zamavaresrama hunezmante'za, kezmanunuma nehaza antahintahi zamo'enena ana maka fanene nehie. Ana hu'neankiza ete ru'enena ama mopafima fore'ma nehia zantamina nege'za, antahintahia osugahaze.

7 Go then, and eat thy bread with joy, and drink thy wine with gladness: because thy works please God.

E'ina hu'negu muse nehunka vunka nezanka'a ome nenenka, waini tinka'a ome no, na'ankure Anumzamo'a ko e'inahuzana hugahane huno hu izo hugante'ne.

8 At all times let thy garments be white, and let not oil depart from thy head.

Maka zupa knare'nare kukena nehunka, masavena kanuntera fre vava huo.

9 Live joyfully with the wife whom thou lovest, all the days of thy unsteady life, which are given to thee under the sun, all the time of thy vanity: for this is thy portion in life, and in thy labour wherewith thou labourest under the sun.

Ama mopafima agafa'a omne knama maninka vanana kna'afina, Anumzamo'ma kamigenka avesima nentana a'ka'anena muse hunka manio. Na'ankure ama mopafima amuhoma hunka maninka vanana zamofo mizama'a kami'ne.

10 Whatsoever thy hand is able to do, do it earnestly: for neither work, nor reason, nor wisdom, nor knowledge shall be in hell, whither thou art hastening. (Sheol h7585)

Inanknahu eri'zama ama mopafima erisanana maka hankaveka'reti hunka erio. Na'ankure frinka matitega vananana eri'zana ome e'orige, eri'za antahintahia ome retro huge, antahi'zana erige knare antahi'zanena erigera osugahie. (Sheol h7585)

11 I turned me to another thing, and I saw that under the sun, the race is not to the swift, nor the battle to the strong, nor bread to the wise, nor riches to the learned, nor favour to the skillful: but time and chance in all.

Hagi ete mago zama ama mopafima koana, tusi zama huno agama nerea vahe'mo'a agare zokago'ma reana, vahera zamagaterekera nosigeno, hankave ha' vahe'mo'za hara huzmagateregara nosaze. Anahukna huno knare antahi'zane vahe'mo'a agakura nehigeno, maka zama knare huno tro'ma nehia vahe'mo'a feno vahera nomanigeno, knare huno avonoma huno antahi'zama eria vahe'mofo nomani' zama'amo'a knarera nosie. Hianagi knare kankamunte'ma ruhiza'ma huterema nehaza vahe'mo'za knarera nehaze.

12 Man knoweth not his own end: but as fishes are taken with the hook, and as birds are caught with the snare, so men are taken in the evil time, when it shall suddenly come upon them.

Na'ankure mago vahe'mo'a knazama avate'ma esiankna antahino keno osu'neankino, kukomo nozame azerigeno antri nehiaza huge, krifumo nama azerigeno antri nehiankna huno hazenke zamo'a vahetera ame huno ne-e.

13 This wisdom also I have seen under the sun, and it seemed to me to be very great:

Hagi ama mopafima fore'ma nehia zantmima negogeno'ma, mago knare antahintahima nenamino nazeri musema hiana ama'ne,

14 A little city, and few men in it: there came against it a great king, and invested it, and built bulwarks round about it, and the siege was perfect.

mago osi kumapina osi'a vahe mani'nazageno, hihamu'ane kini ne'mo'a sondia vahe'ane eno kuma keginamofo tavaonte mopa kateno ante hihi huno marerino hara huzmante'za hu'ne.

15 Now there was found in it a man poor and wise, and he delivered the city by his wisdom, and no man afterward remembered that poor man.

Hagi ana kumapina mago amunte omne ne' nemania ne'mo'a, knare antahizama'areti ana kumara agu'vazi'ne. Hianagi mago vahe'mo'e huno ana'ma hu'nea zankura antahi omi'naze.

16 And I said that wisdom is better than strength: how then is the wisdom of the poor man slighted, and his words not heard?

Ana higeno knare antahi'zamo'a hankavea agatere'neanagi, amunte omane ne'mofo knare antahizankura vahe'mo'za antahimi'za zazatera novaze.

17 The words of the wise are heard in silence, more than the cry of a prince among fools.

Knare antahi'zane ne'mo'ma akoheno'ma hania ke'ma antahi'zamo'a, neginagi kini ne'mo'ma ranke'ma huno kema nehigeno'ma antahi'zana agatere'ne.

18 Better is wisdom, than weapons of war: and he that shall offend in one, shall lose many good things.

Knare antahi zama eri'zamo ha'zama ante zana agatere'ne. Hianagi kumike ne'mo'a rama'a knare'zantamina eri haviza hugahie.
