< Ecclesiastes 11 >

1 Cast thy bread upon the waters: for thou shalt find it after many days.
Oasr soakas se fahk mu, “Pahtkakunla ma nom fin kof u, na tukun len pus kom ac fah sifil konauk.”
2 Give a portion to seven, and also to eight; for thou knowest not what evil shall be upon the earth.
Sang kutu ma oasr yurum nu sin mwet itkosr ku oalkosr, mweyen kom koflana etu lah ongoiya fuka ac sikyak nu sum fin faclu.
3 If the clouds be full of rain, they empty [themselves] upon the earth: and if the tree fall toward the south, or toward the north, in the place where the tree falleth, there it shall be.
Acn se na ma soko sak ac topla nu we, ac oanna in sac. Pacl se pukunyeng uh sroalsroalla, na ac afi.
4 He that observeth the wind shall not sow; and he that regardeth the clouds shall not reap.
El su tuni yen eng uh tuku we me pa ac etu pacl tia fal in yok; ac el su tuni pukunyeng uh pa ac etu pacl tia fal in kosrani.
5 As thou knowest not what [is] the way of the spirit, [nor] how the bones [do grow] in the womb of her that is with child: even so thou knowest not the works of God who maketh all.
God El orala ma nukewa, ac kom tia ku in kalem ke ma El oru, oana ke kom tia ku in kalem ke mutaweyen moul lun sie tulik insien sie mutan pitutu.
6 In the morning sow thy seed, and in the evening withhold not thine hand: for thou knowest not whether shall prosper, either this or that, or whether they both [shall be] alike good.
Oru yok lom an ke lotutang ac oayapa ke eku. Kom tia ku in etu lah nufonna ac kapak wo, ku sie fwil uh ac kapak wo liki ma se ngia.
7 Truly the light [is] sweet, and a pleasant [thing it is] for the eyes to behold the sun:
Sie mwe insewowo ke kut liye kalem wolana lun len uh.
8 But if a man live many years, [and] rejoice in them all; yet let him remember the days of darkness; for they shall be many. All that cometh [is] vanity.
Engankin yac nukewa ma kom moul uh. Finne loes moul lom, esam lah misa lom fah loes liki. Ma nukewa ma ac sikyak faclu meet liki kom misa, ma na lusrongten.
9 Rejoice, O young man, in thy youth; and let thy heart cheer thee in the days of thy youth, and walk in the ways of thine heart, and in the sight of thine eyes: but know thou, that for all these [things] God will bring thee into judgment.
Mwet fusr, kowos in engankin moul in mwet fusr lowos an. Kowos in insewowo ke kowos srakna fusr. Oru ma kowos lungse oru an, ac suk ma kowos liye mu wo uh. Tusruktu esam lah God El ac nununkekowos ke kutena ma kowos oru.
10 Therefore remove sorrow from thy heart, and put away evil from thy flesh: for childhood and youth [are] vanity.
Finne oasr mwe akasorye kowos ku mwe akngalye kowos, nimet kowos fosrnga, mweyen pacl in fusr lowos ac mutaweyen moul lowos uh ma lusrongten.
