Da:i Dione Dawa:i Olelesu 4
1 Amalalu, na da defele hame hamobe hou osobo bagadega bu ba: i. Gasa fi dunu da asaboi dunuma nimi bagade hamobeba: le, asaboi dunu da dinanu, fidisu dunu hame ba: i. Bai gasa fi dunu, ili fawane da gasa gala.
Then I returned and saw all the oppressions that are done under the sun. And, behold, the tears of such as were oppressed, and they had no comforter. And on the side of their oppressors there was power, but they had no comforter.
2 Na da bogoi dunu ilima mudasa. Bai bogosu hou da esalusu hou baligisa.
Therefore I praised the dead who have long been dead more than the living who are yet alive.
3 Be dunu amo da hame lalelegei da defele hame hamobe hou osobo bagadega gala, amo hame ba: beba: le, ilia hou da esalebe dunu ilia hou baligisa.
Yea, better than them both is him who has not yet been, who has not seen the evil work that is done under the sun.
4 Hou eno na ba: le, dawa: lai dagoi. Abuliba: le dunu ilia da hawa: gasa bagadedafa hamosala: , amola liligi huluane noga: i enoenoia hahamosala: ? Bai agoane, ilia da ilia na: iyado dunu ilia gagui amo mudale ba: sa. Be amo hou da hamedeidafa. Amo da fo mabe se bobogebe defele gala.
Then I saw all labor and every skilful work, that for this a man is envied by his neighbor. This also is vanity and a striving after wind.
5 Dunu oda ilia da agoane sia: sa, dunu hihia: me hawa: afaewane mae hamone, hina: lobo sogoba: digili udigili esalebeba: le bogomu, agoaiwane dunu da gagaoui dunu.
The fool folds his hands together, and eats his own flesh.
6 Amo sia: da dafawanela: ? Na hame dawa: Be amo na dawa: Fonobahadi fawane gaguli amola dogo olofoiwane esalumu da defea. Be eso huluane fo lamusa: ne, lobo aduna amoga mae helefili hawa: hamonanumu da hamedei liligi agoane.
Better is a handful, with quietness, than two handfuls with labor and striving after wind.
7 Na da osobo bagade esalusu ganodini, eno hamedei liligi ba: i dagoi.
Then I returned and saw vanity under the sun.
8 Dunu afaedafa e da hisuwane fifi lala. E da mano hame amola ea eya ola hamedei, be amowane e da eso huluane hawa: hamonana. Be e da bagade gaguiba: le hame nodosa. E da nowama gasa bagade hawa: hamosala: ? Amola e da abuliba: le hahawane hou higasala: ? Amo hou amola da hamedei liligi. Agoaiwane esalusu da noga: i hame amola da: i dioi agoane.
There is one man who is alone, and he has not a second, yea, he has neither son nor brother. Yet there is no end of all his labor, nor are his eyes satisfied with riches. For whom then, he says, do I labor, and deprive my soul of good? This also is vanity, yea, it is a great travail.
9 Dunu aduna da dafululi hawa: hamomu da defea. Bai dunu aduna da gilisili hawa: hamosea, ela hawa: hamoi da baligili ba: mu.
Two are better than one, because they have a good reward for their labor.
10 Dunu ea sama afae amo dafasea bu ea sama eno amoea fidili lobolele wa: lesimu. Be dunu afae da e hisu dafasea, e da fidisu dunu hame ba: mu.
For if they fall, the one will lift up his fellow, but woe to him who is alone when he falls, and has not another to lift him up.
11 Dunu aduna ela da anegagisia, ela gilisili sogobale gola diasea ela da dogoloi ba: mu. Be dia disu da gola diasea, di da habodane dogolole denesima: bela: ?
Again, if two lie together, then they have warmth, but how can one be warm alone?
12 Dunu afaedafa ea hisu ha lai dunuma gegesea e da hame hasanasimu. Be ha lai dunu ilia adunama doagala: sea, ilia gasaga da ela hame baligimu. Efe gomei osodayale hamoi amoea da hedolo hame damumu.
And if a man prevails against him who is alone, two shall withstand him. And a threefold cord is not quickly broken.
Better is a poor and wise youth than an old and foolish king who does not know how to receive admonition any more.
14 Hame gagui dunu da heda: le, bu hi fifi asi gala ganodini hina bagade hou lamusa: dawa: Amola se dabe iasu diasu hamoi dunu da se dabe iasu diasu fisili, hina bagade hou lamusa: dawa: Be e da da: i hamosea, fada: i sia: ne iasu higasea, e da gagaoui agoai. Ayeligi dunu amo da hame gaguiwane be noga: i dawa: lai, e da amo dunu ea hou baligisa.
For he came forth out of prison to be king, yea, even in his kingdom he was born poor.
15 Na dawa: i dagoi, dunu huluane nowa osobo bagade goe ganodini esalebe, amo fi ganodini da goi ayeligi afae, e da fa: no hina bagade ea sogebi lamu.
I saw all the living who walk under the sun, that they were with the youth, the second, who stood up in his stead.
16 Hina bagade da dunu idimu hamedei amo ouligimusa: dawa: Be e da bogosea, dunu da ea hamobeba: le hame nodomu. Amo hou da bai hamedei. Hamedeiba: le, amo hou da gagaoui dunu fo mabe se bobogebe agoai ba: sa.
There was no end of all the people, even of all those over whom he was. Yet those who come after shall not rejoice in him. Surely this also is vanity and a striving after wind.
