Propovjednik 6

1 I vidjeh: ima još jedno zlo pod suncem i teško tišti ljude.

There [is] an evil which I have seen under the sun and [is] great it on humankind.

2 Nekomu Bog udijeli bogatstvo i blago i počasti te ima sve što mu duša poželi, ali mu ne udijeli da to i uživa, nego uživa tuđinac. To je ispraznost i grdna nevolja.

Anyone whom he gives to him God wealth and riches and honor and not he [is] lacking to appetite his - any of all that he desires and not he gives power him God to eat from it for a man foreign he eats it this [is] futility and [is] an affliction an evil it.

3 I velim: bolje je nedonošče od onoga koji bi rodio stotinu djece i živio mnogo godina, a sam se ne bi naužio dobra niti bi imao pogreba;

If he will father anyone one hundred [children] and years many he will live and [will be] many - [that] which will be [the] days of years his and self his not it will be satisfied from the good and also burial not it belonged to him I say [is] good more than him the miscarriage.

4 jer je nedonošče uzalud došlo i u tamu otišlo i ime mu je tamom pokriveno;

For in futility it came and in darkness it will go and in darkness name its it is covered.

5 sunca čak ne vidje niti spozna - a spokojnije je od onoga.

Also [the] sun not it saw and not it knew rest [belongs] to this one more than this one.

6 Pa kad bi takav živio i dvije tisuće godina, a svojeg dobra ne bi uživao, zar ne odlaze obojica jednako na isto mjesto?

And if he lived a thousand years two times and good not he saw ¿ not to a place one [are] all going.

7 Čovjek se trudi samo da bi jeo, a želudac njegov nikad da se nasiti.

All [the] toil of humankind [is] for mouth his and also the appetite not it will be filled.

8 Jer po čemu je mudrac bolji od luđaka i što reći o siromahu koji se umije držati pred ljudima?

For what? advantage [belongs] to the wise person more than the fool what? [belongs] to the poor [person] [who] knows to walk before the living.

9 Bolje je očima vidjeti nego duhom lutati. I to je ispraznost i pusta tlapnja.

[is] good [the] sight of Eyes more than going desire also this [is] futility and striving of wind.

10 Što je već bilo, ime ima; i zna se što je čovjek; i on se ne može parbiti s jačim od sebe.

Whatever [that] which has been already it has been named name its and [is] known [that] which he humankind [is] and not he is able to contend with ([one] who [is] mighty *Q(K)*) more than him.

11 Što više riječi, to veća ispraznost svega, i koja je od toga korist čovjeku?

For there [are] words certainly they increase futility what? advantage [belongs] to person.

12 Tko zna što je dobro čovjeku u životu njegovu, za ono malo dana koje tako isprazno živi, koji mu prolaze kao sjena? Tko će kazati čovjeku što će biti poslije njega pod suncem?

For who? [is] knowing what? [is] good for person in life [the] number of [the] days of [the] life of futility his and he spends them like shadow that who? will he tell to person what? will it be after him under the sun.
