< Ecclesiastes 4 >

1 Again I looked, and I considered all the oppression taking place under the sun. I saw the tears of the oppressed, and they had no comforter; the power lay in the hands of their oppressors, and there was no comforter.
Amalalu, na da defele hame hamobe hou osobo bagadega bu ba: i. Gasa fi dunu da asaboi dunuma nimi bagade hamobeba: le, asaboi dunu da dinanu, fidisu dunu hame ba: i. Bai gasa fi dunu, ili fawane da gasa gala.
2 So I admired the dead, who had already died, above the living, who are still alive.
Na da bogoi dunu ilima mudasa. Bai bogosu hou da esalusu hou baligisa.
3 But better than both is he who has not yet existed, who has not seen the evil that is done under the sun.
Be dunu amo da hame lalelegei da defele hame hamobe hou osobo bagadega gala, amo hame ba: beba: le, ilia hou da esalebe dunu ilia hou baligisa.
4 I saw that all labor and success spring from a man’s envy of his neighbor. This too is futile and a pursuit of the wind.
Hou eno na ba: le, dawa: lai dagoi. Abuliba: le dunu ilia da hawa: gasa bagadedafa hamosala: , amola liligi huluane noga: i enoenoia hahamosala: ? Bai agoane, ilia da ilia na: iyado dunu ilia gagui amo mudale ba: sa. Be amo hou da hamedeidafa. Amo da fo mabe se bobogebe defele gala.
5 The fool folds his hands and consumes his own flesh.
Dunu oda ilia da agoane sia: sa, dunu hihia: me hawa: afaewane mae hamone, hina: lobo sogoba: digili udigili esalebeba: le bogomu, agoaiwane dunu da gagaoui dunu.
6 Better one handful with tranquility than two handfuls with toil and pursuit of the wind.
Amo sia: da dafawanela: ? Na hame dawa: Be amo na dawa: Fonobahadi fawane gaguli amola dogo olofoiwane esalumu da defea. Be eso huluane fo lamusa: ne, lobo aduna amoga mae helefili hawa: hamonanumu da hamedei liligi agoane.
7 Again, I saw futility under the sun.
Na da osobo bagade esalusu ganodini, eno hamedei liligi ba: i dagoi.
8 There is a man all alone, without even a son or brother. And though there is no end to his labor, his eyes are still not content with his wealth: “For whom do I toil and bereave my soul of enjoyment?” This too is futile—a miserable task.
Dunu afaedafa e da hisuwane fifi lala. E da mano hame amola ea eya ola hamedei, be amowane e da eso huluane hawa: hamonana. Be e da bagade gaguiba: le hame nodosa. E da nowama gasa bagade hawa: hamosala: ? Amola e da abuliba: le hahawane hou higasala: ? Amo hou amola da hamedei liligi. Agoaiwane esalusu da noga: i hame amola da: i dioi agoane.
9 Two are better than one, because they have a good return for their labor.
Dunu aduna da dafululi hawa: hamomu da defea. Bai dunu aduna da gilisili hawa: hamosea, ela hawa: hamoi da baligili ba: mu.
10 For if one falls down, his companion can lift him up; but pity the one who falls without another to help him up!
Dunu ea sama afae amo dafasea bu ea sama eno amoea fidili lobolele wa: lesimu. Be dunu afae da e hisu dafasea, e da fidisu dunu hame ba: mu.
11 Again, if two lie down together, they will keep warm; but how can one keep warm alone?
Dunu aduna ela da anegagisia, ela gilisili sogobale gola diasea ela da dogoloi ba: mu. Be dia disu da gola diasea, di da habodane dogolole denesima: bela: ?
12 And though one may be overpowered, two can resist. Moreover, a cord of three strands is not quickly broken.
Dunu afaedafa ea hisu ha lai dunuma gegesea e da hame hasanasimu. Be ha lai dunu ilia adunama doagala: sea, ilia gasaga da ela hame baligimu. Efe gomei osodayale hamoi amoea da hedolo hame damumu.
13 Better is a poor but wise youth than an old but foolish king who no longer knows how to take a warning.
14 For the youth has come from the prison to the kingship, though he was born poor in his own kingdom.
Hame gagui dunu da heda: le, bu hi fifi asi gala ganodini hina bagade hou lamusa: dawa: Amola se dabe iasu diasu hamoi dunu da se dabe iasu diasu fisili, hina bagade hou lamusa: dawa: Be e da da: i hamosea, fada: i sia: ne iasu higasea, e da gagaoui agoai. Ayeligi dunu amo da hame gaguiwane be noga: i dawa: lai, e da amo dunu ea hou baligisa.
15 I saw that all who lived and walked under the sun followed this second one, the youth who succeeded the king.
Na dawa: i dagoi, dunu huluane nowa osobo bagade goe ganodini esalebe, amo fi ganodini da goi ayeligi afae, e da fa: no hina bagade ea sogebi lamu.
16 There is no limit to all the people who were before them. Yet the successor will not be celebrated by those who come even later. This too is futile and a pursuit of the wind.
Hina bagade da dunu idimu hamedei amo ouligimusa: dawa: Be e da bogosea, dunu da ea hamobeba: le hame nodomu. Amo hou da bai hamedei. Hamedeiba: le, amo hou da gagaoui dunu fo mabe se bobogebe agoai ba: sa.
