< Ecclesiastes 2 >

1 I said in mine heart, Goe to nowe, I will proue thee with ioy: therefore take thou pleasure in pleasant things: and beholde, this also is vanitie.
Keile kei ka kihouvin, “Hung in nopsahna patep hitin, hinkhoa thilpha phaho vehite,” kati ahi. Hinlah hiche jong hi ajeh-beihel tobangbep ahiti, keiman kamu doh in ahi.
2 I saide of laughter, Thou art mad: and of ioy, What is this that thou doest?
Hiti chun keiman, “Nui jong hi ngolhoi ahi bouvin, nopsahna hol jong hin ipi phatna ahinsodoh em,” kati.
3 I sought in mine heart to giue my selfe to wine, and to leade mine heart in wisdome, and to take holde of follie, till I might see where is that goodnesse of the children of men, which they enioy vnder the sunne: the whole nomber of the dayes of their life.
Lunggel tampi gel jouvin, keiman judonna lungthim kipasah ding in kagel in ahi. Chule chihna ka holhol laijin, ngolhoithu jong kagel in ahi. Hiti hin keiman hiche vannoija hi chomcha ahinsunguva, mi atamjon kipana tah ahol hol-u chu kahetdoh nom in ahi.
4 I haue made my great workes: I haue built me houses: I haue planted me vineyards.
Hiti hin keiman chenna ding in-len tahtah sah’a chule lengpilei hoi tahtah ho semdoh a kon hin, hinlona jeh hidiham tin kanagel in ahi.
5 I haue made me gardens and orchards, and planted in them trees of all fruite.
Keiman hon tampi le kicholdona mun tampi kasem in, theiphung jat tintang kaphut dimin ahi.
6 I haue made me cisternes of water, to water therewith the woods that growe with trees.
Keiman thingphung mang keikoija ahung um doh theinan twichapna ding in twikhol khomna ding tampi jong kasem in ahi.
7 I haue gotten seruants and maides, and had children borne in the house: also I had great possession of beeues and sheepe aboue all that were before me in Ierusalem.
Keiman soh pasal hole soh numeiho jong ka chon chule ka-in muna pengden soh phabep jong ka neijin ahi. Chule keiman masanga Jerusalema ana cheng leng ana umsa ho sang in jong, gancha hole gan lentah tah ho geijin jong kanei tam jon ahi.
8 I haue gathered vnto me also siluer and gold, and the chiefe treasures of Kings and prouinces: I haue prouided me men singers and women singers, and the delites of the sonnes of men, as a woman taken captiue, and women taken captiues.
Keiman lengtampi ho le agam sung uva dangka tamtah le sana tamtah ho ka kholkhom in ahi. Keiman numei hole pasal ho lah’a lasathem kidangtah tah kaki thalah in chule melhoitah tah thaikem ho jong ka neijin, pasal khat in alung’a adeichat chan chu ka neisoh kei jin ahi.
9 And I was great, and increased aboue all that were before me in Ierusalem: also my wisedome remained with me.
Hiti chun keima ka masanga Jerusalema ana cheng ho jouse sang in ka loupi jon, chule ka chihna’n keima eidalha pon ahi.
10 And whatsoeuer mine eyes desired, I withheld it not from them: I withdrew not mine heart from any ioy: for mine heart reioyced in al my labour: and this was my portion of all my trauaile.
Kalunga ka ngaichat chan kakilah ji'e. Nopsahna kiti pouva chun ka noplou na aum poi. Na hahsa toh jeng’a jong ka tha nom lheh in, katoh gimna jousea tohman ka kimu cheh in ahi.
11 Then I looked on all my workes that mine hands had wrought, and on the trauaile that I had laboured to doe: and beholde, all is vanitie and vexation of the spirit: and there is no profite vnder the sunne.
Hinlah kana tohna jouse hi kavetna ahileh bulhit molso kiti hi ahahlheh in, ajeh bei ngensen ahi-huinung gahdel tobangbep ahi. Hoilai mun hijong leh aphachom dihtah kiti hi aum deh poi.
12 And I turned to beholde wisedome, and madnes and follie: (for who is the man that will come after the King in things, which men nowe haue done?)
Hitia hi keiman chihna hitoh ki ngolsah nale ngolna hi ka tekah in ahileh (ajeh chu keima Lengpa tah’in kabol banga hi koiyin abolthei ding ham?)
13 Then I saw that there is profite in wisdome, more then in follie: as the light is more excellent then darkenes.
“Khovah hi muthim sanga aphatjoh bang in, chihna hi ngolna sang in apha joi, tin ka gel in ahi.
14 For the wise mans eyes are in his head, but the foole walketh in darknes: yet I know also that the same condition falleth to them all.
Ajeh chu miching hon achena ding aki muchet masat un, hinlah angol chu muthima avah lei. Hinlah miching le mingol jong achanding’u aki banggel in ahi.”
15 Then I thought in mine heart, It befalleth vnto me, as it befalleth to ye foole. Why therefore doe I then labour to be more wise? And I sayd in mine heart, that this also is vanitie.
Keima lunggel’a, “Aniuva thigel ding ahi. Keima mingol banga kichai ding kahijeh in, kachihna jouse hi amanlutna ipi hintem? Hiche hi aboncha ajehbei hisohkei ahije!” kati.
16 For there shalbe no remembrance of the wise, nor of the foole for euer: for that that now is, in the dayes to come shall all be forgotten. And howe dyeth the wise man, as doeth the foole?
Ajeh chu miching le mingol aniuva athigellin ahi. Miching chu mingol sanga aki geldoh ding aumbe dehpoi. Ahung lhung ding nikhohoa aniuva ki geldoh lou ding ahi tauve.
17 Therefore I hated life: for the worke that is wrought vnder the sunne is grieuous vnto me: for all is vanitie, and vexation of the spirit.
Hitia keiman lei hinkho kahotna ajeh chu, hiche nisa noija kibol doh jouse hi lungboina bep ahije. Ijakai hi ajehbei tobang ahi-huinung gahdel tobangbep ahije.
18 I hated also all my labour, wherein I had trauailed vnder the sunne, which I shall leaue to the man that shalbe after me.
Keiman hiche leiset chunga kana toh gimna jouse hi kahin thei chim ahitai, ijeh- iham itileh keiman ka lodoh jouse hi midang ka dalhah peh ding ahije.
19 And who knoweth whether he shalbe wise or foolish? yet shall hee haue rule ouer all my labour, wherein I haue trauailed, and wherein I haue shewed my selfe wise vnder the sunne. This is also vanitie.
Chule keima panmun hinlo dingho chu ching diuha ahilouleh ngoldiu ha kon asei thei ding ham? Hinlah nipi noija keima boltheina le tohgimna jal'a phatchom pina kanei hohi, amahon ahin kimanchah diu ahitai. Itia ajeh bei soh hin tem!
20 Therefore I went about to make mine heart abhorre all the labour, wherein I had trauailed vnder the sunne.
Hitia hi keima, hiche vannoija hi ka tohgimna jouse hi aphatchomna ipi um'em tia lung lha tah’a uma kahi.
21 For there is a man whose trauaile is in wisdome, and in knowledge and in equitie: yet to a man that hath not trauailed herein, shall he giue his portion: this also is vanitie and a great griefe.
Mi phabep chun chingtheile hetna neijin, chule themtah in atongun, amaho chun chutia atohgimgau chu atong louhel khat dinga chu adalhah teidiu ahi. Hiche jong hi ajeh kihe lou ahin, lungnat umtah ahi.
22 For what hath man of all his trauaile and griefe of his heart, wherein he hath trauailed vnder the sunne?
Hitia hi mihon hiche hinkhoa hi atohgim nau jouse le alung gim nau jouseuva hi ipi akimu’u hinam?
23 For all his dayes are sorowes, and his trauaile griefe: his heart also taketh not rest in the night: which also is vanitie.
Atoh gimnau nikhoho chu thohgimna le lungnat nan adim un, jan ahi teng jongleh alung thim-u akicholdo theipoi. Chehi ajehbei tobangbep ahisoh keije.
24 There is no profit to man: but that he eate, and drinke, and delight his soule with the profit of his labour: I saw also this, that it was of the hand of God.
Hiti hin keiman ka gellin mihem in aneh’a chule adonna, anatoh’a lungkimna anei ding sanga phajo aum poi kati. Hiti hin, hiche nopsahna hohi Pathen khutna hungkon ahi, ti keiman ka geldoh in ahi.
25 For who could eate, and who could haste to outward things more then I?
Ajeh chu Amalouva kon aneh’a, ahilou leh nop asah ding hiya ham?
26 Surely to a man that is good in his sight, God giueth wisdome, and knowledge, and ioy: but to the sinner he giueth paine, to gather, and to heape to giue to him that is good before God: this is also vanitie, and vexation of the spirit.
Pathen in chihna, hetna chule thanopna Ana lunglhaiho apeh ahi. Hinlah michonse khat chu neile gou ahaova ahileh hiche ahaona chu Pathen in alahmanga, ama lunglhaiho apeh ding ahi. Hiche jong hi ajeh beihel aphachom lou ding ahibouve.
