< Ecclesiastes 1 >

1 The words of Ecclesiastes, the son of David, king of Jerusalem.
Rempi humi ne' Deviti nemofo Jerusalemi kumate kini ne' Solomoni naneke.
2 Vanity of vanities, said Ecclesiastes vanity of vanities, and all is vanity.
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 hath a man more of all his labour, that he taketh under the sun?
Vahe'mo'za tusi amuho hu'za ama mopafina eri'zana e'nerizanagi, ana eri'zampintira na'a erifore hugahaze?
4 One generation passeth away, and another generation cometh: but the earth standeth for ever.
Vahera efore huno frino nevanigeno, ru vahera ete efore huno frino nevianagi, ama mopamo'a mevava huno ne-e.
5 The sun riseth, and goeth down, and returneth to his place: and there rising again,
Maka nanterana zagemo'a hanatiteno evuno kinagama segeno'a ufreteno, ete agareno anama hanati'nere enevie.
6 Maketh his round by the south, and turneth again to the north: the spirit goeth forward surveying all places round about, and returneth to his circuits.
Hagi zaho'ma eriana sauti kazigati erino vuno ome arugagino, ete noti kaziga vuno ome arugagino, zahora erino kagigagi nehie.
7 All the rivers run into the sea, yet the sea doth not overflow: unto the place from whence the rivers come, they return, to flow again.
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 hard: man cannot explain them by word. The eye is not filled with seeing, neither is the ear filled 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 is it that hath been? the same thing that shall be. What is it that hath been done? the same that shall be done.
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 Nothing under the sun is new, neither is any man able to say: Behold this is new: for it hath already gone before in the ages that were 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 former things: nor indeed of those things which hereafter are to come, shall there be any remembrance with them that shall be in the latter end.
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 Ecclesiastes 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 proposed in my mind to seek and search out wisely concerning all things that are done under the sun. This painful occupation hath God given to the children of men, to be exercised therein.
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 things that are done under the sun, and behold all is vanity, and vexation of spirit.
Mika zana ama mopafima nehaza zama koana, agafa'a omane'za nehazanki'za, zaho'ma avararizankna nehaze.
15 The perverse are hard to be corrected, and the number of fools is infinite.
Kazakinesia zana azeri fatgo osugahane. Hagi omne'nenia zana ohamprigahane.
16 I have spoken in my heart, saying: Behold I am become great, and have gone beyond all in wisdom, that were before me in Jerusalem: and my mind hath contemplated many things wisely, and I have learned.
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 And I have given my heart to know prudence, and learning, and errors, and folly: and I have perceived that in these also there was labour, and vexation of spirit,
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 Because In much wisdom there is much indignation: and he that addeth knowledge, addeth also labour.
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.
