Ecclesiastes 11
1 Cast your bread upon the waters, for after many days you will find it again.
Ka jefa burodinka a bisa ruwaye, gama bayan kwanaki masu yawa, za ka sāke samunsa.
2 Divide your portion among seven, or even eight, for you do not know what disaster may befall the land.
Ka raba abin hannunka ga mutum bakwai, I, har ma takwas, gama ba ka san bala’in da zai auko wa ƙasar ba.
3 If the clouds are full, they will pour out rain upon the earth; whether a tree falls to the south or to the north, in the place where it falls, there it will lie.
In gizagizai sun cika da ruwa, sukan zub da ruwan sama bisa duniya. Itace ya fāɗi, ko wajen kudu ne, ko wajen arewa, inda ya fāɗi a nan zai kwanta.
4 He who watches the wind will fail to sow, and he who observes the clouds will fail to reap.
Duk mai la’akari da iska, ba zai yi shuka ba, mai la’akari da gizagizai kuma, ba zai yi girbi ba.
5 As you do not know the path of the wind, or how the bones are formed in a mother’s womb, so you cannot understand the work of God, the Maker of all things.
Kamar yadda ba ka san hanyar iska ba, ko yadda aka siffanta jiki a cikin mahaifiya, haka ba za ka fahimci aikin Allah Mahaliccin dukan abubuwa ba.
6 Sow your seed in the morning, and do not rest your hands in the evening, for you do not know which will succeed, whether this or that, or if both will equally prosper.
Ka shuka irinka da safe, da yamma kuma kada ka janye hannunka, gama ba ka san wanda zai yi albarka ba, ko wannan ko wancan, ko kuma duka biyunsu su yi albarka.
7 Light is sweet, and it pleases the eyes to see the sun.
Haske da yana da kyau, abu mai kyau ne kuma idanu su dubi rana.
8 So if a man lives many years, let him rejoice in them all. But let him remember the days of darkness, for they will be many. Everything to come is futile.
Kome tsawon rayuwar mutum, bari yă more su duka. Amma bari kuma yă tuna da kwanakin duhu, gama su ma za su yi yawa. Duk abin da zai faru ba shi da amfani.
9 Rejoice, O young man, while you are young, and let your heart be glad in the days of your youth. Walk in the ways of your heart and in the sight of your eyes, but know that for all these things God will bring you to judgment.
Ka yi murna, kai matashi, a ƙuruciyarka, bari zuciyarka kuma tă yi farin ciki a kwanakin ƙuruciyarka. Ka bi shawarar zuciyarka da kuma duk abin da idanunka suka gani, amma ka sani fa, cikin dukan al’amuran nan Allah zai shari’anta ka.
10 So banish sorrow from your heart, and cast off pain from your body, for youth and vigor are fleeting.
Saboda haka, ka fid da tsoro daga zuciyarka ka kakkaɓe duk wani abin da ya dami rayuwarka, gama ƙuruciya da ƙarfi ba su da amfani.
