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 turned and saw all the oppressions which take place under the sun; and, behold, there were the tears of the oppressed, and they had no comforter; and from the hand of their oppressors there was violence, and 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 been long ago 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 both of them is he who hath not yet been, who hath not seen the evil work which 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.
And I saw all labor, and all success in work, that for this a man is envied by his neighbor. This also is vanity, and 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 foldeth his hands together and eateth 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 hand full of quietness, than both hands full of weariness and striving after wind.
7 Na da osobo bagade esalusu ganodini, eno hamedei liligi ba: i dagoi.
Then I turned and saw other 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 who is alone, and no one with him; yea, he hath neither son nor brother; yet is there no end to all his labor, and his eye is not satisfied with riches. “For whom, then [[saith he]], do I labor and deprive myself of good?” This also is vanity; yea, it is an evil thing!
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 his fellow up; but woe to him who is alone when he falleth, and hath not another to help 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 heat; 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 an enemy prevail against one, two shall withstand him; and a threefold cord is not quickly broken.
Better is a child poor but wise, than a king old and foolish, who will no more be admonished.
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 out of prison cometh forth such a one to reign; for in his own kingdom he was born a poor man.
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 that all the living, who walk under the sun, were with the child 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 to all the people before whom he went forth; yet they that come afterwards shall not rejoice in him. This also is vanity, and striving after wind.
