Ecclesiastes 1
1 These are the words of the Teacher, the son of David, king in Jerusalem:
Rempi humi ne' Deviti nemofo Jerusalemi kumate kini ne' Solomoni naneke.
2 “Futility of futilities,” says the Teacher, “futility of futilities! Everything is futile!”
Rempi humi ne'mo'a huno, Mika zamofona agafa'a omaneno! Agafa'a omanegeno, ana maka zamo'a agafa'a omnetfa hu'ne.
3 What does a man gain from all his labor, at which he toils under the sun?
Vahe'mo'za tusi amuho hu'za ama mopafina eri'zana e'nerizanagi, ana eri'zampintira na'a erifore hugahaze?
4 Generations come and generations go, but the earth remains forever.
Vahera efore huno frino nevanigeno, ru vahera ete efore huno frino nevianagi, ama mopamo'a mevava huno ne-e.
5 The sun rises and the sun sets; it hurries back to where it rises.
Maka nanterana zagemo'a hanatiteno evuno kinagama segeno'a ufreteno, ete agareno anama hanati'nere enevie.
6 The wind blows southward, then turns northward; round and round it swirls, ever returning on its course.
Hagi zaho'ma eriana sauti kazigati erino vuno ome arugagino, ete noti kaziga vuno ome arugagino, zahora erino kagigagi nehie.
7 All the rivers flow into the sea, yet the sea is never full; to the place from which the streams come, there again they flow.
Hagi maka timo'za kampui hanatite'za vu'za hagerimpinke unefrazanagi, hagerimo'a avira note. Hagi ana timo'za hagerimpima vute'za, ete anama hanati'nazareti eme aru hanati'za ete hagerimpina nevaze.
8 All things are wearisome, more than one can describe; the eye is not satisfied with seeing, nor the ear content with hearing.
Maka ama mopafi zantaminku'ma antahintahima hu'zamo'a, tusiza huno tavesra nehiankita hu amara hugara nosune. Tavumo'a rama'a zantmi negeanagi, mago'ane ke'nia agesage nehie. Anahukna huno tagesamo'a rama'a keaga nentahianagi, mago'ane antahinia agesage nehie.
9 What has been will be again, and what has been done will be done again; there is nothing new under the sun.
Hakare zama menima fore'ma nehia zana, korapa fore hu'nea zamo fore nehie. E'ina hu'neankino ama mopafima fore'ma nehia zantamina magora kasefa zana forera nosianki, korapa fore hu'nea zantmi fore nehie.
10 Is there a case where one can say, “Look, this is new”? It has already existed in the ages before us.
Mago'mo'a huno amazana kasefaza fore nehianki keho huno osugahie. Na'ankure mika'zana korapa fore osu'nonkeno fore hu'neaza ete fore nehie.
11 There is no remembrance of those who came before, and those yet to come will not be remembered by those who follow after.
Korapama fore'ma hu'nea zantaminkura antahintahia osu zamagenekanize. Hanki henkama fore'ma hanaza vahe'mo'za menima nehu'na zantaminkura zamage akanigahaze.
12 I, the Teacher, was king over Israel in Jerusalem.
Nagra Rempi huzmi ne'mo'na Jerusalemi kumate mani'ne'na, Israeli vahe kinia mani'na kegava huzmante'noe.
13 And I set my mind to seek and explore by wisdom all that is done under heaven. What a heavy burden God has laid upon the sons of men to occupy them!
Ama mopafima me'nege'zama maka zama nehaza zana, nagra knare antahi'zanteti, refako hu'na ke'na antahi'nama huana Anumzamo'a tusi knaza vahe'mofona kofintegeno, knazana e'nerize.
14 I have seen all the things that are done under the sun, and have found them all to be futile, a pursuit of the wind.
Mika zana ama mopafima nehaza zama koana, agafa'a omane'za nehazanki'za, zaho'ma avararizankna nehaze.
15 What is crooked cannot be straightened, and what is lacking cannot be counted.
Kazakinesia zana azeri fatgo osugahane. Hagi omne'nenia zana ohamprigahane.
16 I said to myself, “Behold, I have grown and increased in wisdom beyond all those before me who were over Jerusalem, and my mind has observed a wealth of wisdom and knowledge.”
Nagra'agura amanage hu'na hu'noe, mika Jerusalemi kumate'ma efore'ma hu'za kinima mani'ne'za vahe'ma kegavama huzmante'naza, kini vahetmina zamagatere'na nagra knare antahi'zana eri'noe. Kote'ma mani'zama e'naza kini vahetmina zamagatere'na, rama'a knare antahi'zane, antahintahizanena eri'noe.
17 So I set my mind to know wisdom and madness and folly; I learned that this, too, is a pursuit of the wind.
Ana hute'na ete knare antahi'zane neginagi antahi'zane erinte'na refko hu'na ke'noanagi, e'i ana zampinti'ma ke'na eri fore'ma huana, e'i ana zamo'enena zaho'ma arotagoma hiankna hu'ne.
18 For with much wisdom comes much sorrow, and as knowledge grows, grief increases.
Na'ankure rama'a knare antahintahima eri zamo'a rama'a kasu zampi manigahane, mago'anema rama'a antahintahi zama eri'zamo'a anahukna hunka mago'ane mareri agatere kasunku zampi manigahane.
