Thuhilpa 1
1 Hiche hi Thuhilpa, Jerusalem’a vaipoa pang, Leng David chapa thuseidoh ho ahi.
Maneno ya Mhubiri, mwana wa Daudi, mfalme huko Yerusalemu:
2 Thuhilpa chun, “Ijakai ajehbei tobang ngen ahi, ajeh bei tobang ngensen ahi sohkeije,” ati.
“Ubatili mtupu! Ubatili mtupu!” Mhubiri anasema. “Ubatili mtupu! Kila kitu ni ubatili.”
3 Nipi noija hi mihon atoh gim jeh’uva hi ipi aki mudoh uvem?
Mwanadamu anafaidi nini kutokana na kazi yake yote anayotaabikia chini ya jua?
4 Khang achemang in, khang ahung lhung kit in, hinlah leiset hin kikhelna aneikha hih laiye.
Vizazi huja na vizazi hupita, lakini dunia inadumu milele.
5 Nisa ahung sohdoh in chule alhum kit jin, chule kinotah’a kipandoh kit ding in akigopai jin ahi.
Jua huchomoza na jua huzama, nalo huharakisha kurudi mawioni.
6 Hui chu lhang lama anung in, chule sah lama ahung kihei jin ahi. Avel kol avelkol in, ahui nun chun akollin ahi.
Upepo huvuma kuelekea kusini na kugeukia kaskazini, hurudia mzunguko huo huo, daima ukirudia njia yake.
7 Vadung ho tuikhanglenna alonglut’uvin, hinlah twikhanglen adim thei deh poi. Chuti chun twi ho chu vadunga ahung kile kit jiuvin chule ahung longdoh un twikhanglenna chun alut kit jiuve.
Mito yote hutiririka baharini, hata hivyo bahari kamwe haijai. Mahali mito inapotoka, huko hurudi tena.
8 Thil ijakai hi seithei lou hellin thachol chol a um'in ahi. Ijat imit uva imu vang un ilungnau achim poi. Ijat ina khang uva ijah jeng vang un ilunglhai jou pouve.
Vitu vyote vinachosha, zaidi kuliko mtu anavyoweza kusema. Jicho kamwe halitosheki kutazama, wala sikio halishibi kusikia.
9 Achesa thusim kivelso kitna ahibouve. Masang peh’a ana kibol chaisa ngensen ahiuve. Nisa noija imacha thil athah tahbeh aum poi.
Kile kilichokuwepo kitakuwepo tena, kile kilichofanyika kitafanyika tena, hakuna kilicho kipya chini ya jua.
10 Khatvei veileh mihon aseijun, “Imacha athah kiti aum poi,” atiuve. Hinlah tahbeh mong in alui ahi bouvin, imacha athah kiti hi aum poi.
Kuna kitu chochote ambacho mtu anaweza kusema, “Tazama! Kitu hiki ni kipya”? Kilikuwepo tangu zamani za kale, kilikuwepo kabla ya wakati wetu.
11 Achesa phatna ipi anasoh em ti igeldoh pouve, chule khang ahung lhung ding hoa jong tua i-thilbol houhi koiman ahetdoh lou ding ahitai.
Hakuna kumbukumbu ya watu wa zamani, hata na wale ambao hawajaja bado hawatakumbukwa na wale watakaofuata baadaye.
12 Keima, Thuhilpa hi Israelte leng kahin, chule Jerusalema chenga kahi.
Mimi, Mhubiri, nilikuwa mfalme wa Israeli katika Yerusalemu.
13 Hetkhen themna holdoh theina ding in keima ka kipum pehdoh jeng in, chule nisa noija na kitongdoh ho chengse hi chihna’a kholdoh ding in ka gel’e. Keiman kahin mudoh chu Pathen in mihemte henga aumna akiphondoh hi ahi.
Nilitumia muda wangu wote kujifunza na kuvumbua kwa hekima yote yanayofanyika chini ya mbingu. Jinsi gani Mungu ameweka mzigo mzito juu ya wanadamu!
14 Keiman nisa noija thil ache jomho ijakai hi kavetna ahileh atahbeh in, abonchan ajeh bei aphachom lou ding tobangbep ahije.
Nimeshaona mambo yote yanayotendeka chini ya jua, hayo yote ni ubatili, hii ni kukimbiza upepo.
15 Adih lou chu aki sudih tahbeh joupon, chule amangsa jong chu akinung mukit tapoi.
Kilichopindika hakiwezi kunyooshwa, kile ambacho hakipo haiwezekani kukihesabu.
16 Keima ka lungthima ka kihoulim in, ka seijin, “Ven, kamasanga Jerusalema leng changho vaihomlai sangin jong ka ching joi. Keima amaho khatpen sangin jong chih john a le hetjohna kaneije,” kati.
Niliwaza mwenyewe, “Tazama, nimekua na kuongezeka katika hekima kuliko yeyote aliyewahi kutawala Yerusalemu kabla yangu. Nimekuwa na uzoefu mkubwa wa hekima na maarifa.”
17 Hiti chun keima ijakai chihna’a konna ngolna chule kingol sahna geija hetdohna ding in ka kalsong doh in ahi. Hinlah keima tah in kahetdoh chu hiche ho jouse hi pannabei thil tobangbep ahije.
Ndipo nilipojitahidi kufahamu kutofautisha hekima, wazimu na upumbavu, lakini nikatambua hata hili nalo ni kukimbiza upepo.
18 Ka chihna akibe cheh le ka gimna akibe cheh in, hetna akalbe cheh le lunggim na akibe cheh bepmin ahi.
Kwa kuwa hekima nyingi huleta huzuni kubwa; maarifa yanapoongezeka, masikitiko yanaongezeka.
