Da:i Dione Dawa:i Olelesu 11
1 Dia muni amo ga fi ilia bidi lasu hou hamoma: ne ima. Eso enoga di da muni dabua eno ligi ba: mu.
Cast thy bread upon the running waters: for after a long time thou shalt find it again.
2 Dia muni dabua eno ligi ba: ma: ne, sogebi bagohame amoga bidi lasu hou hamoma. Bai di da dima se nabasu hou misunu hame dawa:
Give a portion to seven, and also to eight: for thou knowest not what evil shall be upon the earth.
3 Ifa da habodili muwane dasea, e da ea sa: i sogebi amogaiwane dialumu. Mu mobi da nabai galea, gibu da sa: imu.
If the clouds be full, they will pour out rain upon the earth. If the tree fall to the south, or to the north, in what place soever it shall fall, there shall it be.
4 Di da ouesaleawane, fo amola gibu ea hou defele fawane hawa: bugimusa: dawa: sea, di da hamedafa bugimu amola hamedafa gamimu.
He that observeth the wind, shall not sow: and he that considereth the clouds, shall never reap.
5 Gode da liligi huluane hahamoi. Amola di da mano dudubu gaheabolo hahamobe abula agui uda ea hagomo ganodini amo hame dawa: , amo defele di da Gode Ea hamobe hamedafa dawa:
As thou knowest not what is the way of the spirit, nor how the bones are joined together in the womb of her that is with child: so thou knowest not the works of God, who is the maker of all.
6 Di da hahabe ha: i manu bugima! Amola daeya amolawane bugima! Di da amo bugi da noga: le heda: mu o bugi amoga afae da noga: le heda: sa amola oda da wadela: mu amo di da hamedafa dawa:
In the morning sow thy seed, and In the evening let not thy hand cease: for thou knowest not which may rather spring up, this or that: and if both together, it shall be the better.
7 Wali esoha amo hahawane nodomu da defea.
The light is sweet, and it is delightful for the eyes to see the sun.
8 Ode huluane dia esalebeba: le, nodoma. Habowali di da esalea, noga: le dawa: ma. Dia bogole dialumu eso da dia esalebe eso baligi ba: mu. Fa: no misunu hou amoma nodomu da hamedei.
If a man live many years, and have rejoiced in them all, he must remember the darksome time, and the many days: which when they shall come, the things past shall be accused of vanity.
9 Ayeligi dilia! Dilia ayeligi eso amoga hahawane nodoma! Dilia da goi gogawane nodoma! Dilia hanaiga hamoma! Be dawa: ma! Dilia hamobe huluane amoga Gode da fofada: nanu, dabe imunu.
Rejoice therefore, O young man, in thy youth, and let thy heart be in that which is good in the days of thy youth, and walk in the ways of thy heart, and in the sight of thy eyes: and know that for all these God will bring thee into judgment.
10 Dilia hou huluane ba: sea, mae da: i dioma amola se nabasea, mae dawa: ma! Dilia da eso bagahame fawane goi esalumu.
Remove anger from thy heart, and put away evil from thy flesh. For youth and pleasure are vain.
