< Ecclesiastes 2 >

1 I said in my heart, "Come now, I will test you with mirth: therefore enjoy pleasure;" and look, this also was vanity.
Nagra amanahu antahintahi hu'noe, Menina muse zampima knare zama me'nesigura refko hu'na kesue hu'noe. Hianagi ana muse zampima koana agafa'a omne'ne.
2 I said of laughter, "It is foolishness;" and of mirth, "What does it accomplish?"
Hagi musema nehuno kiza zokagoma hu'zana agafa'a omne avu'ava zankino, mago knare zana eri forera osugahie hu'na hu'noe.
3 I searched in my heart how to cheer my flesh with wine, my heart yet guiding me with wisdom, and how to lay hold of folly, until I might see what it was good for the sons of men that they should do under heaven all the days of their lives.
Ama mopafima vahe'mo'zama osi'a knafima mani'neza musema nehazaza ke'nue hute'na, waini tina nene'na musena nehu'na, neginagi avu'ava zana hu'noe.
4 I made myself great works. I built myself houses. I planted myself vineyards.
Hanki ra eri'za eri'na tusinasi nontami kinente'na rama'a waini hozaramina nentena,
5 I made myself gardens and parks, and I planted trees in them of all kinds of fruit.
rama'a hoza nente'na, agona agona ruzahu ruzahu zafa ragama renentea zafaramina rama'a kri'noe.
6 I made myself pools of water, to water from it the forest where trees were reared.
Ana nehu'na tintamina ahentragi'na ana tirupinti tina afina zafa hoza tina ami'noe.
7 I bought male servants and female servants, and had servants born in my house. I also had great possessions of herds and flocks, above all who were before me in Jerusalem;
Kazokzo eri'za vene'nene a'nanenena mizasena zamavroge'za nonifina mani'ne'za mofavreramina kase hakare hu'naze. Hagi ko'ma mago'a kini vahe'ma Jerusalemima kinima mani'naza vahera, zamagatere'na rama'a sipisipi afutamine meme afutaminena ante'noe.
8 I also gathered silver and gold for myself, and the treasure of kings and of the provinces. I got myself male and female singers, and the delights of the sons of men—musical instruments, and that of all sorts.
Ana nehu'na kuma'nifintira rama'a silvane golinena zogina eri atru nehu'na, ru kini vahe'mo'zama namiza fenonena rama'a ante'noe. Hagi zavenama nehe'za zagamema hu vahera, vene'nene a'nanenena rama'a zamavroge'za kumanifina emani'naze. Ana nehu'na nagra'a nazeri muse hanufi nehu'na henka a'nanea rama'a knare'nare a'nene eri'noe.
9 So I was great, and increased more than all who were before me in Jerusalem. My wisdom also remained with me.
E'ina'ma nehu'na ko'ma Jerusalemi kumate'ma kinima mani'za e'naza vahetmina zamagatere'na rama'a feno ante'noe. Ana hugeno knare antahi'zamo'a nagri'ene me'ne.
10 Whatever my eyes desired, I did not keep from them. I did not withhold my heart from any joy, for my heart rejoiced because of all my labor, and this was my portion from all my labor.
Ina zanku'ma navesia zana amane e'neri'na, inanknahu musezama hunaku'ma huazana amane hu'noe. Ana nehu'na tusi muse hu'na eri'zana eneri'na, ana eri'zamofo nena'ama efore'ma hiazana ke'noe.
11 Then I looked at all the works that my hands had worked, and at the labor that I had labored to do; and look, all was vanity and a chasing after wind, and there was no profit under the sun.
Hianagi maka zama hankaveniama atre'na erifore hua zantmima koana, ana zantamina agafa'a omane'ne. Amane zahoma avaririankna hu'noe. Mago knare zana ama mopafina kena eri amara osu'noe.
12 I turned myself to consider wisdom, madness, and folly. For what can the man who comes after the king do? Just that which he has already done.
Hanki knare antahi'zane neginagi antahi'zanema erinte'na refkoma hu'na koana, henkama efore hania kini ne'mo'a tro'ma osu'nesua zana, naza tro hugahie? Maka zama tro'ma haniana, nagra ko tro hu'noaza tro hugahie.
13 Then I saw that wisdom excels folly, as far as light excels darkness.
Nagrama nagesama antahuana, masamo'ma hanizama agatereankna huno, knare antahi'zamo'a neginagi antahi'zana agatere'ne.
14 The wise man's eyes are in his head, and the fool walks in darkness—and yet I perceived that one event happens to them all.
Na'ankure knare antahi'zane vahe'mo'a kama neviankana negeno nevianagi, neginagi antahi'zane vahe'mo'a hanimpi nevie. Hagi mago zama keama'ma huana ana taregamokea magozahu hu'na'e.
15 Then said I in my heart, "As it happens to the fool, so will it happen even to me; and why was I then more wise?" Then said I in my heart that this also is vanity.
E'inahu'za me'nege'na nagra amanahu antahintahi hu'noe, neginagi vahetema fore'ma hania zamo'a, ana hukna za nagritera fore hugahie. E'ina hu'neanki knare antahi'zamo'a nankna knare'za erifore huramigahie. Knare antahi'zama eri'zamofona agafa'a omane'ne.
16 For of the wise man, even as of the fool, there is no memory for ever, seeing that in the days to come all will have been long forgotten. Indeed, the wise man must die just like the fool.
Na'ankure knare antahi'zane vahe'mo'za neginagi vahe'mo'zama nehazaza hu'za frisage'za zamage akani zamantegahaze. Vahe'mo'zama maniza vanafina, ana tare kevufi vahekura zamage akanizmantegahaze. Ana hanigeno neginagi vahe'ma friaza huno knare antahintahine vahe'mo'ma fri'nige'za zamage akanintegahaze.
17 So I hated life, because the work that is worked under the sun was grievous to me; for all is vanity and a chasing after wind.
E'i zanku asimu'ma erino ama mopafima mani zankura tusi navesra nehie. Na'ankure mika zama hua zamo'a asunku zanke'za avreno eme nenamie. Tusi amuhoma huta maka zama hu'na zamo'a agafa'a omne'neanki, amne zaho'ma avaririankna nehune.
18 I hated all my labor in which I labored under the sun, seeing that I must leave it to the man who comes after me.
E'ina hu'negu maka zama ama mopafima amuho'ma hu'na eri fore'ma nehua zankura, tusi'za huno navresra hie. Na'ankure ete ru vahe azampi maka zama amuho hu'na eri fore'ma hua zantamina atre'na vu'zanku navesra hie.
19 Who knows whether he will be a wise man or a fool? Yet he will have rule over all of my labor in which I have labored, and in which I have shown myself wise under the sun. This also is vanity.
Hagi nagri noma erisia nera, knare antahi'zane nepi, neginagi antahi'zane nepi, nagra antahi'na ke'na osu'noe. Hianagi maka zama amuhoma hu'na eri fore'ma hu'noa zantamina, ana vahe'mo kegava hugahie. Na'ankure ana zantamina knare antahi'zanteti erifore hu'noe. E'inahu zamo'enana agafa'a omne'ne.
20 Therefore I began to cause my heart to despair concerning all the labor in which I had labored under the sun.
E'ina hu'negu ama mopafima tusi amuhoma hu'na eri fore'ma nehua zantaminkura antahintahia hu'na namentintia nosue.
21 For there is a man whose labor is with wisdom, with knowledge, and with skillfulness; yet he shall leave it for his portion to a man who has not labored for it. This also is vanity and a great evil.
Mago'a vahe'mo'za knare antahintahi zamireti'ene antahi'za zamireti'ene maka zantamina eri retro huntete'za, amuho hu'za erifore osu'naza vahetmimofo zamazampi ana zantamina nentaze. Ama ana zama kogeno'a agafa'a omnegeno rankefoza fore nehie.
22 For what has a man of all his labor, and of the striving of his heart, in which he labors under the sun?
E'ina hu'neanki mago'mo'ma amuhoma huno eri'zama eria zampintira naza erifore nehie?
23 For all his days are sorrows, and his travail is grief; yes, even in the night his heart takes no rest. This also is vanity.
Na'ankure maka kna eri'zama eruna zamo'a ata zane, asunku zanena avreno eme neramigeno, kenage'ene feru'enena antahintahi timo'a eri'zana eri vava nehie. E'ina hu'neankino maka zamo'a agafa'a omne'ne.
24 There is nothing better for a man than that he should eat and drink, and make his soul enjoy good in his labor. This also I saw, that it is from the hand of God.
Amuhoma huno erifore'ma hia ne'zama neneno, tima neneno musenkasema hu'zamo'a mago'a zama hu'zana agatere'ne. E'i anama huno musema hu'zama ke'na antahi'nama huana, Anumzamofontegati ana zana ne-e.
25 For who can eat, or who can have enjoyment, apart from him?
Na'ankure Anumzamo'ma azama osanigeno'a mago vahe'mo'a agra'a hankaverera ne'zana erifore huno neneno musena osugahie.
26 For to the man who pleases him, God gives wisdom, knowledge, and joy; but to the sinner he gives travail, to gather and to heap up, that he may give to him who pleases God. This also is vanity and a chasing after wind.
Anumzamo'a agrama musema nehia zama nehaza vahera knare antahintahi zane, muse zanena nezmie. Hianagi kumi vahe'mo'zama feno vahe'ma nesazageno'a Anumzamo'a ana fenozmia erino agri'ma avesia avu'ava'ma nehaza vahe nezmie. E'i ana zamo'enena agafa'a omne'neankino amne zaho avaririaza nehie.
