Ecclesiastes 6
1 There is an euill, which I sawe vnder the sunne, and it is much among men:
Ani aduudhaa gaditti waan hamaa biraa argeera; kunis akka malee namatti ulfaata:
2 A man to whom God hath giuen riches and treasures and honour, and he wanteth nothing for his soule of all that it desireth: but God giueth him not power to eate thereof, but a strange man shall eate it vp: this is vanitie, and this is an euill sicknesse.
Waaqni akka namni waan garaa isaatti hawwu tokko iyyuu hin dhabneef qabeenya, badhaadhummaa fi ulfina isaaf kenne; Waaqni garuu akka inni itti gammadu hin goone; qooda namichaa nama ormaatu itti gammada. Kun waan faayidaa hin qabnee dha; hammina nama gaddisiisuudhas.
3 If a man beget an hundreth children and liue many yeeres, and the dayes of his yeeres be multiplied, and his soule be not satisfied with good things, and he be not buried, I say that an vntimely fruite is better then he.
Namni tokko ijoollee dhibba qabaatee waggoota baayʼee jiraachuu dandaʼa; inni hamma fedhe jiraatu illee yoo qabeenya isaatti gammaduu baatee awwaala gaariis argachuu baate, ani, “Isaa mannaa gatata wayya” nan jedha.
4 For he commeth into vanitie and goeth into darkenesse: and his name shall be couered with darkenesse.
Inni akkasumaan dhufa; dukkana keessa bada; maqaan isaas dukkanaan haguugama.
5 Also he hath not seene ye sunne, nor knowen it: therefore this hath more rest then the other.
Inni yoo aduu arguu baate iyyuu yookaan yoo homaa beekuu baate iyyuu boqonnaa namichi sun argatu caalaa boqonnaa qabaata.
6 And if he had liued a thousand yeeres twise tolde, and had seene no good, shall not all goe to one place?
Inni waggaa kuma yeroo lama jiraatu illee yoo jireenya gaarii hin jiraatin, namni hundi idduma tokko dhaqa mitii?
7 All the labour of man is for his mouth: yet the soule is not filled.
Dadhabbiin nama hundaa afaanuma isaatiif; fedhiin isaa garuu yoom iyyuu hin guutu.
8 For what hath the wise man more then the foole? what hath the poore that knoweth how to walke before the liuing?
Ogeessi maaliin gowwaa caala? Hiyyeessi akka itti fuula namootaa dura jiraatu beekuudhaan faayidaa maalii argata?
9 The sight of ye eye is better then to walke in ye lustes: this also is vanitie, and vexation of spirit.
Hawwiidhaan jooruu mannaa waan iji argu wayya. Kunis bubbee ariʼuu malee faayidaa hin qabu.
10 What is that that hath bene? the name thereof is nowe named: and it is knowen that it is man: and he cannot striue with him that is stronger then he.
Waan jiru hundaaf duraanuu maqaan baʼeera; maalummaan namaas beekamaa dha; namni tokko iyyuu nama isa caalaa humna qabuun morkachuu hin dandaʼu.
11 Surely there be many things that increase vanitie: and what auaileth it man?
Dubbiin akkuma baayʼatuun faayidaa dhaba; yoos wanni sun akkamiin nama kam iyyuu fayyada?
12 For who knoweth what is good for man in the life and in the nomber of the dayes of the life of his vanitie, seeing he maketh them as a shadowe? For who can shewe vnto man what shall be after him vnder the sunne?
Bara jireenya namaa kan inni akkuma gaaddisaatti keessa baʼee darbu gabaabaa faayidaa hin qabne kana keessa eenyutu waan namaaf gaarii taʼe beeka? Waan erga inni deemee booddee aduudhaa gaditti taʼus eenyutu isatti himuu dandaʼa?
