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.
I turned myself to other things, and I saw the oppressions that are done under the sun, and the tears of the innocent, and they had no comforter; and they were not able to resist their violence, being destitute of help from any.
2 Na da bogoi dunu ilima mudasa. Bai bogosu hou da esalusu hou baligisa.
And I praised the dead rather than the living:
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.
And I judged him happier than them both, that is not yet born, nor hath seen the evils that are 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.
Again I considered all the labours of men, and I remarked that their industries are exposed to the envy of their neighhour: so in this also there is vanity, and fruitless care.
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 foldeth his hands together, and eateth his own flesh, saying:
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 rest, than both hands full with labour, and vexation of mind.
7 Na da osobo bagade esalusu ganodini, eno hamedei liligi ba: i dagoi.
Considering I found also another 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 but one, and he hath not a second, no child, no brother, and yet he ceaseth not to labour, neither are his eyes satisfied with riches, neither doth he reflect, saying: For whom do I labour, and defraud my soul of good things? in this also is vanity, and a grievous vexation.
9 Dunu aduna da dafululi hawa: hamomu da defea. Bai dunu aduna da gilisili hawa: hamosea, ela hawa: hamoi da baligili ba: mu.
It is better therefore that two should be together, than one: for they have the advantage of their society:
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.
If one fall he shall be supported by the other: woe to him that is alone, for when he falleth, he hath none 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: ?
And if two lie together, they shall warm one another: how shall one alone be warmed?
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 prevail against one, two shall withstand him: a threefold cord is not easily broken.
Better is a child that is poor and wise, than a king that is old and foolish, who knoweth not to foresee for hereafter.
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.
Because out of prison and chains sometimes a man cometh forth to a kingdom: and another born king is consumed with poverty.
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 men living, that walk under the sun with the second young man, who shall rise up in his place.
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.
The number of the people, of all that were before him is infinite: and they that shall come afterwards, shall not rejoice in him: but this also is vanity, and vexation of spirit.
