Prædikeren 8
1 Hvo er som den vise? og hvo forstaar Sagens Udtydning? Menneskens Visdom opklarer hans Ansigt, og hans Ansigts Haardhed forandres.
Who? [is] like the wise [person] and who? [is] knowing [the] interpretation of a matter [the] wisdom of anyone it makes shine face his and [the] strength of face his it is changed.
2 Jeg siger: Agt paa Kongens Mund, og det formedelst Eden til Gud.
I [the] mouth of a king keep and on [the] cause of [the] oath of God.
3 Vær ikke hastig til at gaa bort fra hans Ansigt, bliv ikke staaende ved en slet Sag; thi han kan gøre alt, hvad han har Lyst til,
May not you be hasty from before him you will go may not you stand in a matter evil for all that he will desire he will do.
4 efterdi Kongens Ord er et Magtsprog; og hvo tør sige til ham: Hvad gør du?
In that a word of a king [is] mastery and who? will he say to him what? are you doing.
5 Hvo som holder Budet, skal intet ondt forfare, og den vises Hjerte kender Tid og Ret.
[one who] keeps A command not he will know a thing evil and an appropriate time and custom it will know a heart wise.
6 Thi for enhver Idræt er der Tid og Ret; thi Menneskets Ulykke hviler svar over ham.
For for every matter there [is] an appropriate time and a custom for [the] trouble of humankind [is] great on him.
7 Thi han ved ikke, hvad der skal ske: Thi hvo kan tilkendegive ham, hvorledes det skal vorde?
For not he [is] knowing what? that will it be that just as it will be who? will he tell to him.
8 Mennesket har ikke Magt over Aanden til at holde Aanden tilbage og ingen Magt over Dødens Dag og kan i Striden ikke undslippe, og Ugudelighed kan ikke redde sin Ejermand.
There not [is] anyone having mastery over the wind to restrain the wind and there not [is] mastery over [the] day of death and there not [is] discharge in the battle and not it will rescue wickedness owners its.
9 Alt dette har jeg set, og jeg har lagt Mærke til al den Gerning, som gøres under Solen; der er en Tid, da Mennesket hersker over et Menneske til dettes Ulykke.
All this I have seen and I have given heart my to every deed which it is done under the sun a time when he domineers person over a person for evil of him.
10 Og da saa jeg de ugudelige at begraves og komme hjem og at gaa bort fra den Helliges Sted og at glemmes i Staden efter at have gjort saaledes; ogsaa dette er Forfængelighed.
And in such I have seen wicked [people] being buried and they came and from a place of holy they went and they may be forgotten in the city where right they had done also this [is] futility.
11 Efterdi der ikke fældes en Dom, haster Ondskabens Gerning; derfor er Menneskenes Børns Hjerte inden i dem fuldt af at gøre ondt.
That not it is done [the] sentence of [the] deed of the evil quickly there-fore it is full [the] heart of [the] children of humankind in them to do evil.
12 Lad endog en Synder gøre hundrede Gange ondt og leve længe! thi jeg ved dog, at det skal gaa dem vel, som frygte Gud, og som frygte for hans Ansigt.
That a sinner [is] doing evil a hundred [times] and [he is] prolonging for himself for also [am] knowing I that it will belong good to [those] fearing God that they fear from to before him.
13 Men det skal ikke gaa den ugudelige vel, og han skal ikke leve længe, han skal gaa bort ligesom en Skygge, fordi han ikke frygter for Guds Ansigt.
And good not it will belong to the wicked and not he will prolong days like shadow that not he he has feared from to before God.
14 Der er en Forfængelighed, som sker paa Jorden: At der er retfærdige, hvem det rammer efter de ugudeliges Gerning, og at der er ugudelige, hvem det rammer efter de retfærdiges Gerning; jeg sagde, at ogsaa dette er Forfængelighed.
There [is] futility which it is done on the earth that - there [are] righteous [people] whom [it is] happening to them according to [the] deed[s] of wicked [people] and there [are] wicked [people] [to] whom [it is] happening to them according to [the] deed[s] of righteous [people] I said that also this [is] futility.
15 Og jeg prisede Glæden, efterdi et Menneske intet bedre har under Solen end at æde og at drikke og at være glad; og saadant følger ham for hans Arbejde i hans Livsdage, som Gud har givet ham under Solen.
And I commend I gladness that not good [belongs] to humankind under the sun that except to eat and to drink and to be happy and that it will accompany him in toil his [the] days of life his which he has given to him God under the sun.
16 Eftersom jeg gav mit Hjerte hen til at forstaa Visdom og til at se den Møje, som man gør sig paa Jorden, at der er den, som hverken Dag eller Nat ser Søvn i sine Øjne:
When I gave heart my to know wisdom and to see the task which it is done on the earth for also in day and in night sleep in view his not he [is] seeing.
17 Da saa jeg al Guds Gerning, at et Menneske ikke kan udfinde den Gerning, som sker under Solen, idet Mennesket arbejder paa at udgranske den uden at kunne finde den; og selv om den vise vilde sige sig at forstaa den, kan han dog ikke finde den.
And I saw all [the] work of God that not he is able humankind to find out the work which it is done under the sun in that that he toils humankind to seek and not he will find out and also if he will say the wise [person] to know not he will be able to find out.
