< Ecclesiastes 2 >

1 I said I in heart my come! please let me put to [the] test you with pleasure and look on good and there! also it [was] futility.
Hoy izaho anakampo: Aoka mba hizahako toetra amin’ ny hafaliana ianao, ka dia mifalia amin’ ny fahitana ny fahafinaretana; kanjo, indro, zava-poana koa izany.
2 Of laughter I said [it is] folly and of pleasure what? this [is it] doing.
Hoy izaho, miantso ny fihomehezana: Fahadalana, ary ny fifaliana hoe: Mahefa inona?
3 I searched in heart my to gratify with wine flesh my and heart my [was] guiding with wisdom and to take hold on folly until that I saw where? this [is] good for [the] children of humankind which they will do under the heavens [the] number of [the] days of lives their.
Nisaina tato am-poko hamalifaly ny nofoko tamin’ ny divay aho (ny foko anefa mbola hitondra azy amin’ ny fahendrena ihany) ary hitana ny fahadalana, mandra-pahitako izay tsara ho an’ ny zanak’ olombelona ka tokony hataony atỳ ambanin’ ny lanitra amin’ ny andro vitsy iainany.
4 I made great works my I built for myself houses I planted for myself vineyards.
Nanao asa lehibe ho ahy aho, nanao trano, nanao tanim-boaloboka,
5 I made for myself gardens and parks and I planted in them tree[s] of every fruit.
nanao tanimboly sy saha aho ka namboly hazo fihinam-boa samy hafa karazana tao;
6 I made for myself pools of water to water from them a forest sprouting of trees.
nanao kamory aho handemana ny ala be zana-kazo;
7 I acquired [male] slaves and female slaves and sons of house he belonged to me also livestock herd[s] and flock[s] [surely] a multitude belonged to me more than all who were before me in Jerusalem.
nahazo ankizilahy sy ankizivavy aho sady nanana ompikely; ary nanana fananana be aho, dia omby sy ondry aman’ osy mihoatra noho izay rehetra talohako teto Jerosalema.
8 I gathered for myself also silver and gold and treasure of kings and provinces I acquired for myself male singers and female singers and [the] delights of [the] children of humankind breast and breasts.
Nihary volafotsy sy volamena koa aho ary fanaka tsara fananan’ ny mpanjaka sy izay avy amin’ ny tany samy hafa; ary nahazo mpihiralahy sy mpihiravavy aho mbamin’ izay mahafinaritra ny zanak’ olombelona, dia vady sy vaditsindrano betsaka.
9 And I became great and I increased more than any who was before me in Jerusalem also wisdom my it remained to me.
Dia efa nisandratra mihoatra noho izay rehetra talohako teto Jerosalema aho; ary ny fahendreko anefa dia mbola tato amiko ihany.
10 And all that they asked eyes my not I withheld from them not I restrained heart my from any pleasure for heart my [was] joyful from all toil my and this it was reward my from all toil my.
Ary na inona na inona nirin’ ny masoko dia tsy nisy narovako taminy; tsy nisakana ny foko tamin’ izay mety ho fifaliana aho; fa nahazo hafaliana avy tamin’ ny fisasarako rehetra ny foko; ary izany no anjarako avy tamin’ ny fisasarako rehetra.
11 And I turned I on all works my that had done hands my and on the toil that I had toiled to do and there! everything [was] futility and striving of wind and there not [was] profit under the sun.
Kanefa nitodika aho nandinika ny asa rehetra nataon’ ny tanako sy ny fisasarana izay nisasarako, ka, indreo, zava-poana sy misambo-drivotra foana izany rehetra izany, fa tsy nisy nahasoa tatỳ ambanin’ ny masoandro.
12 And I turned I to consider wisdom and madness and folly for - what? [is] the person who will come after the king [that] which already people have done it.
Ary nitodika aho hijery ny fahendrena sy ny fahaverezan-tsaina ary ny fahadalana; fa inona no hataon’ ny olona izay handimby ny mpanjaka? Izay efa natao hatramin’ ny ela ihany.
13 And I saw I that there [is] advantage of wisdom more than folly like [the] advantage of light more than darkness.
Dia hitako fa ny fahendrena dia tsara’ noho ny fahadalana, toy ny fahatsaran ny mazava noho ny maizina.
14 The wise [person] eyes his [are] in head his and the fool in darkness [is] walking and I knew also I that fate one it will happen to all of them.
Ny mason’ ny hendry dia eo an-dohany; fa ny adala kosa mandeha amin’ ny maizina; nefa hitako fa mitovy ihany ny manjo azy roa tonta.
15 And I said I in heart my like [the] fate of the fool also me it will happen to me and why? have I become wise I then excessively and I said in heart my that also this [is] futility.
Dia hoy izaho anakampo: Mitovy amin’ ny manjo ny adala ihany ny manjo ahy, koa nahoana ary no nanan-tombom-pahendrena aho? Dia hoy izaho anakampo: zava-poana koa izany.
16 For there not [is] remembrance of the wise man with the fool for a long time in that already the days coming everything it has been forgotten and how! he will die the wise [person] with the fool.
Fa samy tsy misy fahatsiarovana mandrakizay na ny hendry na ny adala; fa amin’ ny andro ho avy dia samy ho hadino ela izy. Indrisy! samy ho faty na ny adala na ny hendry.
17 And I hated life for [was] evil on me the work that was done under the sun for everything [is] futility and striving of wind.
Dia efa halako ny aina, satria nataoko ho ratsy ny asa atao atỳ ambanin’ ny masoandro; fa zava-poana sy misambo-drivotra foana izy rehetra.
18 And I hated I all toil my that I [was] a laborer under the sun that I will leave it to the person who will be after me.
Eny, efa halako ny fisasarako rehetra izay nisasarako tatỳ ambanin’ ny masoandro, fa havelako ho an’ ny olona izay handimby ahy izany,
19 And who? [is] knowing ¿ a wise [person] will he be or? a fool so he may have power over all toil my that I have toiled and that I worked skillfully under the sun also this [is] futility.
ary iza no mahalala na ho hendry na ho adala izy? Nefa izy no ho tompon’ izay rehetra nisasarako sy nataoko tamin’ ny fahendreko tatỳ ambanin’ ny masoandro. Zava-poana koa izany.
20 And I turned I to make despair heart my on all the toil that I have toiled under the sun.
Dia nitodika aho hampamoy ny foko amin’ ny fahakiviana ny amin’ ny fisasarana rehetra izay nisasarako tatỳ ambanin’ ny masoandro.
21 If there [was] a person who toil his [was] with wisdom and with knowledge and with skill and to a person who not he toiled in it he will give it portion his also this [is] futility and an evil great.
Fa misy olona izay misasatra amin’ ny fahendrena sy ny fahalalana ary ny fahaizana, nefa ny olona izay tsy nisasatra tamin’ izany akory no tsy maintsy hamelany azy ho lovany. Zava-poana sy faharatsiana lehibe koa izany.
22 For what? [is] becoming to the person in all toil his and in [the] striving of heart his that he [was] a laborer under the sun.
Fa inona no azon’ ny olona amin’ ny fisasarany rehetra sy amin’ ny fikatsahan’ ny fony, izay nisasarany tatỳ ambanin’ ny masoandro?
23 For all days his [are] pains and [is] vexation task his also in the night not it rests heart his also this [is] futility it.
Fa ny androny rehetra dia fanaintainana avokoa, ary ny fisasarany dia fahasorisorena; eny, na dia amin’ ny alina aza dia tsy manam-pitsaharana ny fony. Zava-poana koa izany.
24 There not [is] good for person that he will eat and he will drink and he will show self his good in toil his also this I have seen I that [is] from [the] hand of God it.
Tsy misy mahasoa ny olona mihoatra noho ny mihinana sy misotro ary ny mampahafinaritra ny tenany amin’ ny fisasarany. Izany koa aza dia efa hitako fa avy amin’ ny tànan’ Andriamanitra
25 For who? will he eat and who? will he enjoy outside from me.
(fa iza no mahalany, ary iza no mahazo manaram-po mihoatra noho izaho?).
26 For to anyone who [is] good before him he gives wisdom and knowledge and joy and to the sinner he gives a task to gather and to collect to give [it] to a [person] good before God also this [is] futility and striving of wind.
Fa ny olona izay ankasitrahan’ Andriamanitra dia omeny fahendrena sy fahalalana ary fifaliana; fa ny mpanota kosa ampiasainy hanangona sy hamory, mba hisy homeny izay ankasitrahan’ Andriamanitra. Zava-poana sy misambo-drivotra foana koa izany.
