< Ecclesiastes 9 >
1 I have surely giuen mine heart to all this, and to declare all this, that the iust, and the wise, and their workes are in the hand of God: and no man knoweth eyther loue or hatred of all that is before them.
Ta pinanunotko amin ti maipapan iti daytoy tapno maawatak ti maipapan kadagiti nalilinteg ken nasisirib a tattao ken dagiti aramidda. Addada amin kadagiti ima ti Dios. Awan ti makaammo no ayat wenno gura ti umay iti maysa a tao.
2 All things come alike to all: and the same condition is to the iust and to the wicked, to the good and to the pure, and to the polluted, and to him that sacrificeth, and to him that sacrificeth not: as is the good, so is the sinner, he that sweareth, as he that feareth an othe.
Adda ti agpapada a gasat iti tunggal maysa. Agpada a gasat ti agur-uray kadagiti nalinteg a tattao ken nadangkes, kadagiti nasayaat a tattao ken dakes, kadagiti nadalus ken ti narugit, ken iti agidatdaton ken iti saan nga agidatdaton. Kas matayto dagiti nasayaat a tattao, kastan to met ti managbasol. Kas matayto ti agsapsapata, kasta met ti tao a mabuteng nga agsapata.
3 This is euill among all that is done vnder the sunne, that there is one condition to all, and also the heart of the sonnes of men is full of euill, and madnes is in their heartes whiles they liue, and after that, they goe to the dead.
Adda ti dakes a gasat para iti amin a banag a maar-aramid iti baba ti init, maysa a panungpalan para iti tunggal maysa. Napno iti kinadakes dagiti puso dagiti tattao, ken adda ti kinamauyong kadagiti pusoda kabayatan nga agbibiagda. Isu a kalpasan dayta mapanda iti ayan dagiti natay.
4 Surely whosoeuer is ioyned to all ye liuing, there is hope: for it is better to a liuing dog, then to a dead lyon.
Ta adda pay laeng ti namnama para iti maysa a tao a sibibiag, kas iti sibibiag nga aso a nasaysayaat ngem ti natay a leon.
5 For the liuing knowe that they shall dye, but the dead knowe nothing at all: neither haue they any more a rewarde: for their remembrance is forgotten.
Ta ammo dagiti nabiag a tattao a mataydanto, ngem awan ti ammo ti natay. Awanen ti aniaman a magunggonada gapu ta nalipatanen dagiti pakalaglagipan kadakuada.
6 Also their loue, and their hatred, and their enuie is now perished, and they haue no more portion for euer, in all that is done vnder the sunne.
Nagpukawen iti nabayag dagiti ayat, gura ken apalda. Awanton a pulos iti lugarda manen kadagiti aniaman a maar-aramid iti baba ti init.
7 Goe, eate thy bread with ioy, and drinke thy wine with a cheerefull heart: for God nowe accepteth thy workes.
Inka iti dalanmo, kanem ti tinapaymo nga addaan iti rag-o, ken inumem ti arakmo nga addaan iti naragsak a puso, ta ipalpalubos ti Dios a marambakan dagiti nasayaat nga aramid.
8 At all times let thy garments be white, and let not oyle be lacking vpon thine head.
Kanayon koma a puraw dagiti kawesmo ken napulotan ti ulom iti lana.
9 Reioyce with the wife whom thou hast loued all the dayes of the life of thy vanitie, which God hath giuen thee vnder the sunne all the dayes of thy vanitie: for this is thy portion in the life, and in thy trauaile wherein thou labourest vnder the sunne.
Makipagnaedka a siraragsak iti asawam a babai nga ay-ayatem kadagiti amin nga aldaw iti biagmo nga awan serserbina, dagiti aldaw nga inted ti Dios kenka iti baba ti init kabayatan dagiti aldaw ti kinaawan ti serbim. Dayta ti gunggonam iti biag para iti trabahom iti baba ti init.
10 All that thine hand shall finde to doe, doe it with all thy power: for there is neither worke nor inuention, nor knowledge, nor wisedome in the graue whither thou goest. (Sheol )
Aniaman a masarakan ti imam nga aramiden, aramidem daytoy babaen iti pigsam, gapu ta awan iti trabaho wenno pannakapalawag wenno pannakaammo wenno kinasirib idiay tanem, ti lugar a papanam. (Sheol )
11 I returned, and I sawe vnder the sunne that the race is not to the swift, nor the battell to the strong, nor yet bread to the wise, nor also riches to men of vnderstanding, neither yet fauour to men of knowledge: but time and chance commeth to them all.
Nakakitaak kadagiti sumagmamano a makaay-ayo a banbanag iti baba ti init. Saan a kukua dagiti napapardas a tattao ti lumba. Saan a kukua dagiti napipigsa a tattao ti gubat. Saan a kukua dagiti nasisirib a tattao ti tinapay. Saan a kukua dagiti tattao nga addaan iti pannakaawat dagiti kinabaknang. Saan a kukua dagiti tattao nga addaan iti pannakaamo ti pabor. Ngem ketdi, apektaran amin ida ti tiempo ken gasat.
12 For neither doth man knowe his time, but as the fishes which are taken in an euill net, and as the birdes that are caught in the snare: so are the children of men snared in the euill time when it falleth vpon them suddenly.
Ta awan ti makaammo ti tiempo ti pannakatayna, kas iti lames a naibalod iti iket ti patay, wenno kas kadagiti billit a nasiloan. Kas kadagiti ayup, nakabalod dagiti tattao kadagiti dakes a tiempo a kellaat a nagdissuor kadakuada.
13 I haue also seene this wisedome vnder the sunne, and it is great vnto me.
Nakitak pay ti kinasirib iti baba ti init iti wagas a kasla naindaklan kaniak.
14 A litle citie and fewe men in it, and a great King came against it, and compassed it about, and builded fortes against it.
Adda maysa a bassit a siudad nga addaan laeng ti sumagmamano a tattao, ket immay maibusor iti siudad ti maysa a nabileg nga ari ket rinautda daytoy ken nangipatakderda kadagiti dadakkel a sarikedked.
15 And there was founde therein a poore and wise man, and he deliuered the citie by his wisedome: but none remembred this poore man.
Ita, adda nasarakan iti dayta a siudad a maysa a marigrigat, a nasirib a tao, a babaen iti kinasiribna ket naisalakan ti siudad. Ngem ti saan a nagbayag, awanen ti makalagip iti dayta met laeng a marigrigat a tao.
16 Then said I, Better is wisdome then strength: yet the wisedome of the poore is despised, and his wordes are not heard.
Isu a kinunak, “Nasaysayaat ti kinasirib ngem ti kinapigsa, ngem naumsi ti kinasirib ti marigrigat a tao ken saan a nangngeg dagiti sasaona.”
17 The wordes of the wise are more heard in quietnes, then the crye of him that ruleth among fooles.
Dagiti sasao ti nasirib a tao a naibaga a siuulimek ket ad-adda a mangngeg ngem ti pukkaw ti maysa a mangiturturay kadagiti maag.
18 Better is wisedome then weapons of warre: but one sinner destroyeth much good.
Nasaysayaat ti kinasirib ngem kadagiti igam ti gubat, ngem mabalin a dadaelen ti maysa a managbasol ti adu a kinaimbag.
