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 waters, for thou shalt find it after many days.
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:
Divide a portion into seven, yea, even into 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 of rain, they empty themselves upon the earth; and if a tree fall in the south, or in the north, in the place where the tree falleth, 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 regardeth the clouds shall not 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 wind, nor how the bones do grow in the womb of her that is with child; even so thou knowest not the work of God who doeth all things.
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 withhold not thy hand; for thou knowest not which shall prosper, whether this or that, or whether they both shall be alike good.
7 Wali esoha amo hahawane nodomu da defea.
And the light is sweet, and a pleasant thing it is for the eyes to behold 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.
For if a man live many years, let him rejoice in them all, and remember the days of darkness, for they shall be many. All that cometh is 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, O young man, in thy youth; and let thy heart cheer thee in the days of thy youth, and walk in the ways of thy heart, and in the sight of thine eyes; but know thou, that for all these things 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.
Therefore remove vexation from thy heart, and put away evil from thy flesh; for childhood and youth are vanity.
