اَلْجَامِعَةِ 8

١ 1 مَنْ كَٱلْحَكِيمِ؟ وَمَنْ يَفْهَمُ تَفْسِيرَ أَمْرٍ؟ حِكْمَةُ ٱلْإِنْسَانِ تُنِيرُ وَجْهَهُ، وَصَلَابَةُ وَجْهِهِ تَتَغَيَّرُ.

Who? [is] like the wise [person] and who? [is] knowing [the] interpretation of a matter [the] wisdom of anyone it makes shine face his and [the] strength of face his it is changed.

٢ 2 أَنَا أَقُولُ: ٱحْفَظْ أَمْرَ ٱلْمَلِكِ، وَذَاكَ بِسَبَبِ يَمِينِ ٱللهِ.

I [the] mouth of a king keep and on [the] cause of [the] oath of God.

٣ 3 لَا تَعْجَلْ إِلَى ٱلذَّهَابِ مِنْ وَجْهِهِ. لَا تَقِفْ فِي أَمْرٍ شَاقٍّ، لِأَنَّهُ يَفْعَلُ كُلَّ مَا شَاءَ.

May not you be hasty from before him you will go may not you stand in a matter evil for all that he will desire he will do.

٤ 4 حَيْثُ تَكُونُ كَلِمَةُ ٱلْمَلِكِ فَهُنَاكَ سُلْطَانٌ. وَمَنْ يَقُولُ لَهُ: «مَاذَا تَفْعَلُ؟».

In that a word of a king [is] mastery and who? will he say to him what? are you doing.

٥ 5 حَافِظُ ٱلْوَصِيَّةِ لَا يَشْعُرُ بِأَمْرٍ شَاقٍّ، وَقَلْبُ ٱلْحَكِيمِ يَعْرِفُ ٱلْوَقْتَ وَٱلْحُكْمَ.

[one who] keeps A command not he will know a thing evil and an appropriate time and custom it will know a heart wise.

٦ 6 لِأَنَّ لِكُلِّ أَمْرٍ وَقْتًا وَحُكْمًا. لِأَنَّ شَرَّ ٱلْإِنْسَانِ عَظِيمٌ عَلَيْهِ،

For for every matter there [is] an appropriate time and a custom for [the] trouble of humankind [is] great on him.

٧ 7 لِأَنَّهُ لَا يَعْلَمُ مَا سَيَكُونُ. لِأَنَّهُ مَنْ يُخْبِرُهُ كَيْفَ يَكُونُ؟

For not he [is] knowing what? that will it be that just as it will be who? will he tell to him.

٨ 8 لَيْسَ لِإِنْسَانٍ سُلْطَانٌ عَلَى ٱلرُّوحِ لِيُمْسِكَ ٱلرُّوحَ، وَلَا سُلْطَانٌ عَلَى يَوْمِ ٱلْمَوْتِ، وَلَا تَخْلِيَةٌ فِي ٱلْحَرْبِ، وَلَا يُنَجِّي ٱلشَّرُّ أَصْحَابَهُ.

There not [is] anyone having mastery over the wind to restrain the wind and there not [is] mastery over [the] day of death and there not [is] discharge in the battle and not it will rescue wickedness owners its.

٩ 9 كُلُّ هَذَا رَأَيْتُهُ إِذْ وَجَّهْتُ قَلْبِي لِكُلِّ عَمَلٍ عُمِلَ تَحْتَ ٱلشَّمْسِ، وَقْتَمَا يَتَسَلَّطُ إِنْسَانٌ عَلَى إِنْسَانٍ لِضَرَرِ نَفْسِهِ.

All this I have seen and I have given heart my to every deed which it is done under the sun a time when he domineers person over a person for evil of him.

١٠ 10 وَهَكَذَا رَأَيْتُ أَشْرَارًا يُدْفَنُونَ وَضُمُّوا، وَٱلَّذِينَ عَمِلُوا بِٱلْحَقِّ ذَهَبُوا مِنْ مَكَانِ ٱلْقُدْسِ وَنُسُوا فِي ٱلْمَدِينَةِ. هَذَا أَيْضًا بَاطِلٌ.

And in such I have seen wicked [people] being buried and they came and from a place of holy they went and they may be forgotten in the city where right they had done also this [is] futility.

١١ 11 لِأَنَّ ٱلْقَضَاءَ عَلَى ٱلْعَمَلِ ٱلرَّدِيءِ لَا يُجْرَى سَرِيعًا، فَلِذَلِكَ قَدِ ٱمْتَلَأَ قَلْبُ بَنِي ٱلْبَشَرِ فِيهِمْ لِفَعْلِ ٱلشَّرِّ.

That not it is done [the] sentence of [the] deed of the evil quickly there-fore it is full [the] heart of [the] children of humankind in them to do evil.

١٢ 12 اَلْخَاطِئُ وَإِنْ عَمِلَ شَرًّا مِئَةَ مَرَّةٍ وَطَالَتْ أَيَّامُهُ، إِلَّا أَنِّي أَعْلَمُ أَنَّهُ يَكُونُ خَيْرٌ لِلْمُتَّقِينَ ٱللهَ ٱلَّذِينَ يَخَافُونَ قُدَّامَهُ.

That a sinner [is] doing evil a hundred [times] and [he is] prolonging for himself for also [am] knowing I that it will belong good to [those] fearing God that they fear from to before him.

١٣ 13 وَلَا يَكُونُ خَيْرٌ لِلشِّرِّيرِ، وَكَٱلظِّلِّ لَا يُطِيلُ أَيَّامَهُ لِأَنَّهُ لَا يَخْشَى قُدَّامَ ٱللهِ.

And good not it will belong to the wicked and not he will prolong days like shadow that not he he has feared from to before God.

١٤ 14 يُوجَدُ بَاطِلٌ يُجْرَى عَلَى ٱلْأَرْضِ: أَنْ يُوجَدَ صِدِّيقُونَ يُصِيبُهُمْ مِثْلَ عَمَلِ ٱلْأَشْرَارِ، وَيُوجَدُ أَشْرَارٌ يُصِيبُهُمْ مِثْلَ عَمَلِ ٱلصِّدِّيقِينَ. فَقُلْتُ: إِنَّ هَذَا أَيْضًا بَاطِلٌ.

There [is] futility which it is done on the earth that - there [are] righteous [people] whom [it is] happening to them according to [the] deed[s] of wicked [people] and there [are] wicked [people] [to] whom [it is] happening to them according to [the] deed[s] of righteous [people] I said that also this [is] futility.

١٥ 15 فَمَدَحْتُ ٱلْفَرَحَ، لِأَنَّهُ لَيْسَ لِلْإِنْسَانِ خَيْرٌ تَحْتَ ٱلشَّمْسِ، إِلَّا أَنْ يَأْكُلَ وَيَشْرَبَ وَيَفْرَحَ، وَهَذَا يَبْقَى لَهُ فِي تَعَبِهِ مُدَّةَ أَيَّامِ حَيَاتِهِ ٱلَّتِي يُعْطِيهِ ٱللهُ إِيَّاهَا تَحْتَ ٱلشَّمْسِ.

And I commend I gladness that not good [belongs] to humankind under the sun that except to eat and to drink and to be happy and that it will accompany him in toil his [the] days of life his which he has given to him God under the sun.

١٦ 16 لَمَّا وَجَّهْتُ قَلْبِي لِأَعْرِفَ ٱلْحِكْمَةَ، وَأَنْظُرَ ٱلْعَمَلَ ٱلَّذِي عُمِلَ عَلَى ٱلْأَرْضِ، وَأَنَّهُ نَهَارًا وَلَيْلًا لَا يَرَى ٱلنَّوْمَ بِعَيْنَيْهِ،

When I gave heart my to know wisdom and to see the task which it is done on the earth for also in day and in night sleep in view his not he [is] seeing.

١٧ 17 رَأَيْتُ كُلَّ عَمَلِ ٱللهِ أَنَّ ٱلْإِنْسَانَ لَا يَسْتَطِيعُ أَنْ يَجِدَ ٱلْعَمَلَ ٱلَّذِي عُمِلَ تَحْتَ ٱلشَّمْسِ. مَهْمَا تَعِبَ ٱلْإِنْسَانُ فِي ٱلطَّلَبِ فَلَا يَجِدُهُ، وَٱلْحَكِيمُ أَيْضًا، وَإِنْ قَالَ بِمَعْرِفَتِهِ، لَا يَقْدِرُ أَنْ يَجِدَهُ.

And I saw all [the] work of God that not he is able humankind to find out the work which it is done under the sun in that that he toils humankind to seek and not he will find out and also if he will say the wise [person] to know not he will be able to find out.
