Ecclesiastes 11
1 Cast thy bread-corn, upon the face of the waters, —for, after many days, shalt thou find it:
Ka jefa burodinka a bisa ruwaye, gama bayan kwanaki masu yawa, za ka sāke samunsa.
2 Give a portion to seven, yea even to eight, —for thou canst not know, what there shall be of misfortune, 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 filled with a downpour, upon the earth, will they empty themselves, and, if a tree fall in the south or in the north, in the place where the tree falleth, there will it be found.
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, will not sow, —and, he that watcheth the clouds, will 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 Just as thou knowest not what is the way of the spirit, when the body is in the womb of her that is with child, even, so, canst thou not know the work of God, who maketh all.
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, until evening, do not withhold thy hand, —for thou knowest not—whether shall thrive, either this or that, or whether, both alike, shall be fruitful.
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 Truly sweet is the light, —and, pleasant to the eyes, to see the sun:
Haske da yana da kyau, abu mai kyau ne kuma idanu su dubi rana.
8 But, though, many years, a man live, through them all, let him rejoice; yet let him remember the days of darkness, for many they may be, all that cometh, may be 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 gladden thee in the days of thine early manhood, and walk thou—in the ways of thine own heart, and in that which is seen by thine own eyes, —yet know, that, for all these things, will God 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 thou vexation from thy heart, and put away discomfort from thy flesh, —for, youth and dawn, 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.
