Ecclesiastes 9
1 But all this I have laid to my heart, so as to clear up the whole of this, that the righteous and the wise, and their works, [are] in the hand of God, neither love nor hatred does man know, the whole [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 The whole [is] as to the whole; one event is to the righteous and to the wicked, to the good, and to the clean, and to the unclean, and to him who is sacrificing, and to him who is not sacrificing; as [is] the good, so [is] the sinner, he who is swearing as he who is fearing an oath.
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] an evil among all that has been done under the sun, that one event [is] to all, and also the heart of the sons of man is full of evil, and madness [is] in their heart during their life, and after it—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 But [to] him who is joined to all the living there is confidence, for to a living dog it [is] better than to the dead lion.
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 living know that they die, and the dead do not know anything, and there is no more reward to them, for their remembrance has been 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 Their love also, their hatred also, their envy also, has already perished, and they have no more portion for all time in all that has been done under the sun.
Nagpukawen iti nabayag dagiti ayat, gura ken apalda. Awanton a pulos iti lugarda manen kadagiti aniaman a maar-aramid iti baba ti init.
7 Go, eat your bread with joy, and drink your wine with a glad heart, for already has God been pleased with your works.
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 your garments be white, and do not let oil be lacking on your head.
Kanayon koma a puraw dagiti kawesmo ken napulotan ti ulom iti lana.
9 See life with the wife whom you have loved, all the days of the life of your vanity, that He has given to you under the sun, all the days of your vanity, for it [is] your portion in life, even of your labor that you are laboring at under the sun.
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 your hand finds to do, with your power do, for there is no work, and plan, and knowledge, and wisdom in Sheol to where you are going. (Sheol h7585)
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 h7585)
11 I have turned so as to see under the sun, that not to the swift [is] the race, nor to the mighty the battle, nor even to the wise bread, nor even to the intelligent wealth, nor even to the skillful grace, for time and chance happen with 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 even man does not know his time; as fish that are taken hold of by an evil net, and as birds that are taken hold of by a snare, the sons of man are snared like these at an evil time when it falls on 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 This also I have seen: wisdom under the sun, and it is great to me.
Nakitak pay ti kinasirib iti baba ti init iti wagas a kasla naindaklan kaniak.
14 A little city, and few men in it, and a great king has come to it, and has surrounded it, and has built against it great bulwarks;
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 has been found in it a poor wise man, and he has delivered the city by his wisdom, and men have not remembered that poor 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 And I said, “Better [is] wisdom than might, and the wisdom of the poor is despised, and his words 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 words of the wise are heard in quiet, More than the cry of a ruler over fools.
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] wisdom than weapons of conflict, And one sinner destroys much good!
Nasaysayaat ti kinasirib ngem kadagiti igam ti gubat, ngem mabalin a dadaelen ti maysa a managbasol ti adu a kinaimbag.
