Ecclesiastes 11
1 Cast thy bread upon the waters, for thou shalt find it after many days.
Ka jefa burodinka a bisa ruwaye, gama bayan kwanaki masu yawa, za ka sāke samunsa.
2 Divide a portion into seven, yea, even into eight; for thou knowest not what evil shall be upon the earth.
Ka raba abin hannunka ga mutum bakwai, I, har ma takwas, gama ba ka san bala’in da zai auko wa ƙasar ba.
3 If the clouds be full of rain, they empty themselves upon the earth; and if a tree fall in the south, or in the north, in the place where the tree falleth, there shall it be.
In gizagizai sun cika da ruwa, sukan zub da ruwan sama bisa duniya. Itace ya fāɗi, ko wajen kudu ne, ko wajen arewa, inda ya fāɗi a nan zai kwanta.
4 He that observeth the wind shall not sow; and he that regardeth the clouds shall not reap.
Duk mai la’akari da iska, ba zai yi shuka ba, mai la’akari da gizagizai kuma, ba zai yi girbi ba.
5 As thou knowest not what is the way of the wind, nor how the bones do grow in the womb of her that is with child; even so thou knowest not the work of God who doeth all things.
Kamar yadda ba ka san hanyar iska ba, ko yadda aka siffanta jiki a cikin mahaifiya, haka ba za ka fahimci aikin Allah Mahaliccin dukan abubuwa ba.
6 In the morning sow thy seed, and in the evening withhold not thy hand; for thou knowest not which shall prosper, whether this or that, or whether they both shall be alike good.
Ka shuka irinka da safe, da yamma kuma kada ka janye hannunka, gama ba ka san wanda zai yi albarka ba, ko wannan ko wancan, ko kuma duka biyunsu su yi albarka.
7 And the light is sweet, and a pleasant thing it is for the eyes to behold the sun.
Haske da yana da kyau, abu mai kyau ne kuma idanu su dubi rana.
8 For if a man live many years, let him rejoice in them all, and remember the days of darkness, for they shall be many. All that cometh is vanity.
Kome tsawon rayuwar mutum, bari yă more su duka. Amma bari kuma yă tuna da kwanakin duhu, gama su ma za su yi yawa. Duk abin da zai faru ba shi da amfani.
9 Rejoice, O young man, in thy youth; and let thy heart cheer thee in the days of thy youth, and walk in the ways of thy heart, and in the sight of thine eyes; but know thou, that for all these things God will bring thee into judgment.
Ka yi murna, kai matashi, a ƙuruciyarka, bari zuciyarka kuma tă yi farin ciki a kwanakin ƙuruciyarka. Ka bi shawarar zuciyarka da kuma duk abin da idanunka suka gani, amma ka sani fa, cikin dukan al’amuran nan Allah zai shari’anta ka.
10 Therefore remove vexation from thy heart, and put away evil from thy flesh; for childhood and youth are vanity.
Saboda haka, ka fid da tsoro daga zuciyarka ka kakkaɓe duk wani abin da ya dami rayuwarka, gama ƙuruciya da ƙarfi ba su da amfani.
