< Ecclesiastes 10 >

1 Dead flies cause a perfumer’s perfume To send forth a stink; The precious by reason of wisdom—By reason of honor—a little folly!
Mnanentake zama nentaza taferopima kosintamimo'zama fri'za mesu'za, kasri'za ana taferopima me'nea mnanentake'zana eri haviza hugahaze. Hagi e'ina hukna huno osi neginagi avu'ava zamo'a, knare antahi'zane knare agima vahe'mofoma amino husgama hunte'zana eri haviza nehie.
2 The heart of the wise [is] at his right hand, And the heart of a fool at his left.
Knare agu'agesane vahe'mo'a knare avu'avaza nehigeno, havi agu'agesane vahe'mo'a, neginagi avu'avaza nehie.
3 And also, when he that is a fool Is walking in the way, his heart is lacking, And he has said to everyone, “He [is] a fool.”
Neginagi vahe'mofona kama vania avu'avate negenka, e'i neginagi vahere hunka hugahane.
4 If the spirit of the ruler goes up against you, do not leave your place, For yielding quiets great sinners.
Hagi kvakamo'ma arimpama aheganteno kema kasanigenka, eri'zana atrenka ovuo. Fru hunka mani'nenka kvakamofo kema antahisankeno'a, mago'ane arimpa aheogantegahie.
5 There is an evil I have seen under the sun, As ignorance that goes out from the ruler,
Hagi mago kefo avu'ava zama ama mopafima koana, ugagota kva vahe'mo'za eri'zana eri havizana nehaze.
6 He has set the fool in many high places, And the rich sits in a low place.
Neginagi vahera marerirfa eri'zanke nezami'za, feno vahera evurami'nea eri'za nezamize.
7 I have seen servants on horses, And princes walking as servants on the earth.
Hagi mago zama koana, kazokazo eri'za vahe'mo'za hosi afu agumpi vano nehazage'za, ugagota kva vahe'mo'za kazokazo eri'za vahekna hu'za mopafi vano nehaze.
8 Whoever is digging a pit falls into it, And whoever is breaking a hedge, a serpent bites him.
Mago vahemo'ma agra'ama kafinte'nesia kerifina agra'a uramigahie. Hagi korapama me'nesia have keginama ahe fragu'ma vazisanana anampintira osifavemo'a kamprigahie.
9 Whoever is removing stones is grieved by them, Whoever is cleaving trees endangered by them.
Hagi mago vahe'mo'ma havema frage eri'zama e'nerisigeno'a, ana havemo'a tamino hazenke amigahie. Hagi mago vahe'mo'ma zafama ape'ma nehanigeno'a, ana zafamo'a hazenkea amigahie.
10 If the iron has been blunt, And he has not sharpened the face, Then he increases strength, And wisdom [is] advantageous to make right.
Hagi osane'nenia sasumereti'ma eri'zama erisanana rama'a hankave atrenka eri'zana erigahane. Hianagi knare antahi'zama erinenia vahe'mo'a knare huno eri'zana erigahie.
11 If the serpent bites without enchantment, Then there is no advantage to a master of the tongue.
Ko'ma osifavemo'ma vahe'ma ampritesigeno'ma ana osifavema azeri agazonema haniana, ana osifavema azeri agazonema hania vahe'mofo eri'zamo'a amnezankna hugahie.
12 Words of the mouth of the wise [are] gracious, And the lips of a fool swallow him up.
Knare antahi'zane vahe'mo'a vahekura asunku hunezamanteno knare mani'zankuke keaga nehie. Hianagi neginagi vahe'mo'a hazenke'za avreno nomani'zama'afima esiankege nehie.
13 The beginning of the words of his mouth [is] folly, And the latter end of his mouth [Is] mischievous madness.
Neginagi vahe'mo'a neginagi kereti agafa huteno, neginagi avu'ava zanteti'ene kefo nanekereti'ene ome hu vagaregahie.
14 And the fool multiplies words: “Man does not know that which is—And that which is after him, who declares to him?”
Naza henka fore hugahie mago vahe'mo'a antahino keno osu'neanagi, neginagi vahe'mo'a rama'a naneke huvava huno vugahie. Hagi henkama fore'ma hania zana iza asamigahie?
15 The labor of the foolish wearies him, In that he has not known to go to the city.
Neginagi vahe'mo'za eri'zana eri'sazanagi tusi zamavaresragu hugahaze. Na'ankure nozamiregama nevaza kana ke'za eri forera osugahaze.
16 Woe to you, O land, when your king [is] a youth, And your princes eat in the morning.
Mago osi mofavremo'ma kini manino kegavama hu'nesia mopafima nemanisaza kva vahe'mo'za nanterama ne'zama kre'za nene'za musema hanaza mopafi vahe'mota, razampi haviza hugahazanki kva hiho.
17 Blessed are you, O land, When your king [is] a son of nobles, And your princes eat in due season, For might, and not for drunkenness.
Mareri vahe'mofo mofavremo'ma kinima manino kegavama hu'nesia mopafi kva vahe'mo'za kna fatagore neginagi osu'are nezama nenesaza mopafi vahe'mota muse hugahaze.
18 By slothfulness is the wall brought low, And by idleness of the hands the house drops.
Eri'za e'ori feru vahe'mofo nomo'ma varivarima nehanigeno ko'ma eri so'ema osanigeno'a varivari huno nomofo agu'afi efreno eri haviza hugahie.
19 For mirth they are making a feast, And wine makes life joyful, And the silver answers with all.
Rama'a ne'zama kreno ne'zamo'a kiza zokagoma nehuno musenkasema huno mani'za avreno ne-enigeno, waini tima nezamo'a museza avreno neanagi, zagoretike makazana tro hugahane.
20 Even in your mind do not revile a king, And in the inner parts of your bed-chamber do not revile the rich: For a bird of the heavens causes the voice to go, And a possessor of wings declares the word.
Antahizanka'afina kini nera antahi havizana huonto. Nemsampinka maninenka feno vahera huhavizana huonto. Na'ankure osi namamo'a ana nanekeka'a erino ana vahera ome asmi'nigura ontahi'nane.
