< Ecclesiastes 8 >

1 Who [is] as the wise? And who knows the interpretation of a thing? The wisdom of man causes his face to shine, and the hardness of his face is changed.
Iza knare antahi'zane vahera mani'neno, maka zamofo agafa'ama eri ama'ma hu'zana antahine? Knare antahizamo'a vahe'mofo avugosafi remsa higeno, avugosamo'a rumsa huno nevie.
2 I [counsel]: keep the command of a king, even for the sake of an oath [to] God.
Kini ne'mofo ke antahinka amage anto hu'na nagra negasamue. Na'ankure kagra ko Anumzamofo avuga ke'a amage antegahue hunka huvempa hu'nane.
3 Do not be troubled at his presence, you may go, do not stand in an evil thing, for all that he pleases he does.
Ame'amara hunka kini ne'mofo avugatira eri'zanka'a atrenka vunka kini ne'mofoma ha'ma renentaza vahe'enena kea ome hu hageorafio. Na'ankure kini ne'mo'a nazano agri'ma avesinia zana amane hugahie.
4 Where the word of a king [is] power [is], and who says to him, “What do you do?”
Kini ne'mofo kemo'a, hihamu'a me'ne. Mago vahe'mo'a agenoka huno, na'a nehane hunora osugahie.
5 Whoever is keeping a command knows no evil thing, and time and judgment the heart of the wise knows.
Hiankino kini ne'mofo kema amage'ma antea vahe'mo'a, knazana e'origahie. Knare antahi'zane vahe'mo'a maka zama hania knane, maka'zama eri fore'ma hania kna fatgoa keno antahino hugahie.
6 For to every delight there is a time and a judgment, for the misfortune of man is great on him.
Na'ankure vahe'mofona hazenke zama'amo'a marerigahianagi, maka zamofona kna'a metere higeno kankamuma'a metere hu'ne.
7 For he does not know that which will be, for when it will be who declares to him?
Tamagerfa huno okima fore'ma hania zana, mago vahe'mo'a keno antahinora osu'neankino, okima fore'ma hania zamofona, iza huamara huno tasamigahie?
8 There is no man ruling over the spirit to restrain the spirit, and there is no authority over the day of death, and there is no discharge in battle, and wickedness does not deliver its possessors.
Mago vahe'mofona hihamu'a omane'neankino, fri'zama nehanigeno asimu'amo'ma atre'zama nehanigeno'a aze'origahie. Anahu kna huno fri'zana mago vahe'mo'a aze'origahie. Ha'ma hu knafima sondia vahe'ma hunonteankna huno, kefo avu'ava zamo'a magore huno kefo avu'ava'ma nehia vahera atresigeno ovugahie.
9 All this I have seen so as to give my heart to every work that has been done under the sun; a time that man has ruled over man to his own evil.
Maka zama ama mopafima fore'ma nehia zanku'ma antahintahima hufintira, mago zama kena eri fore'ma huana, vahe'mo'ma vahe'ma azeri haviza hu'zanke me'nege'na ke'noe.
10 And so I have seen the wicked buried, and they went in, even from the Holy Place they go, and they are forgotten in the city whether they had so done. This [is] also vanity.
Kefo avu'ava'ma nehia vahe'ma frige'za, antahimi'za knare'za hu'za asezamantazage'na zamage'noe. Ana'ma hu'za asentete'za, ete ana ne'mo'ma hazenkema eri hakarema nehia rankumapima ne-eza, ana ne'mofo agia ahentesga nehaze. E'inahu avu'ava zamo'a agafa'a omane'ne.
11 Because sentence has not been done [on] an evil work speedily, therefore the heart of the sons of man is full within them to do evil.
Hagi hazenkema nehaza vahe'ma keagazmima ame hu'zama refko'ma hu'za knama nozamizage'za, zamagrama zamagesama antahi'zana hazenkema hu'zana knare'za nehune nehu'za huvava huza nevaze.
12 Though a sinner is doing evil one hundred [times], and prolonging [himself] for it, surely also I know that there is good to those fearing God, who fear before Him.
Hianagi kefo avu'ava'ma nehaza vahe'mo'zama 100'a zupama hazenkema nehu'za za'za knama mani'za nevazage'na, nagrama antahi'na ke'nama huana Anumzamofoma koro'ma hunte'za agoraga'ama nemani'za vahe'mo'za zamagatere'za knare zantfa hu'za manigahaze.
13 And good is not to the wicked, and he does not prolong days as a shadow, because he is not fearing before God.
Hagi kefo avu'ava'ma nehaza vahe'mo'zama maka zama hanaza zamo'a, knarera huno hageno mareorigahie. Na'ankure Anumzamofona korora hunontazanki'za, knama mani'zama vanaza knamo'a kinaga zagemo'ma ufregeno vahe amema'amo'ma fanene nehiankna hu'za fanene hugahaze.
14 There is a vanity that has been done on the earth, that there are righteous ones to whom it is coming according to the work of the wicked, and there are wicked ones to whom it is coming according to the work of the righteous. I have said that this [is] also vanity.
Hagi agafa'a omne zama mago'ma ama mopafima eri fore'ma nehiana, knare vahetmina kefo avu'ava'ma nehaza vahe'ma huzmantaza kna avu'ava hunezmante'za, kefo avu'ava'ma nehaza vahera knare vahetmima huzmantaza kna avu'ava hunezmantaze. E'inahu avu'ava zamo'enena agafa'a omne'ne.
15 And I have praised mirth because there is no good to man under the sun except to eat and to drink, and to rejoice, and it remains with him of his labor the days of his life that God has given to him under the sun.
E'ina hu'negu ama mopafina magora knare zana omne'neanki, ne'zane tinema neneno musema huno'ma mani nomani'zamoke knarera hu'ne. E'ina'ma hanu'za Anumzamo'ma eri'zama zamige'za ama mopafima amuhoma hu'za eri fore'ma nehaza zantami nene'za musena hugahaze.
16 When I gave my heart to know wisdom and to see the business that has been done on the earth (for there is also a spectator in whose eyes sleep is not by day and by night),
Hagi knare antahi'za erisue nehu'na, ama mopafi vahe'mo'zama knazama e'neriza zama koana, vahe'mofona avumase zana omane'neanki, feru'ene kenage'enena vahe'mo'a eri'zana eri vava nehige'na ke'noe.
17 then I considered all the work of God, that man is not able to find out the work that has been done under the sun, because though man labor to seek, yet he does not find; and even though the wise man speak of knowing he is not able to find.
Anama hige'na nagrama ke'na antahi'nama huana, maka zama ama mopafima Anumzamo'ma tro nehia zana, mago vahe'mo'a keno antahinora osugahie. Knare antahi'zane vahe'mo'enena nagra knare hu'noanki'na, Anumzamo'ma tro'ma nehia zana amne ke'na antahina hugahue huno hugahianagi, ana maka zana keno antahinora osugahie.
