< 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.
Hoe iraho an-troko ao, Antao arè, hitso­ek’ azo an-kafaleañe, hahatrea ty soa. Te mone, hakafoahañe avao.
2 Of laughter I said [it is] folly and of pleasure what? this [is it] doing.
Hoe iraho ty amo fiankahafañeo, Hagegeañe! naho ty amo hafaleañeo, Ino ty atao’e?
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.
Kinodebe’ ty ereñereko ty hañonkòñe ty troko ami’ty divay, ie nitehafen-kihitse ty fitsakoreako; naho ty hangazoñako o hadagolàñeo ampara’ te hahatreavako ze mahasoa o ana’ ondatio, hitoloña’e ambanen-dike­rañe atoa amo andron-kaveloma’e tsy ampe’ ampeo.
4 I made great works my I built for myself houses I planted for myself vineyards.
Nitratrañaheko o fitoloñakoo; nandranjy anjomba ho ahy, vaho namboleako tetem-bahe;
5 I made for myself gardens and parks and I planted in them tree[s] of every fruit.
Namboarako goloboñe naho ala-vondro, vaho namboleako ze hene karazan-katae mamoa-voa.
6 I made for myself pools of water to water from them a forest sprouting of trees.
Nihaliako antara hanondrahako o hatae mitiry amy alaio.
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.
Nivily ondevo lahy naho ampela, naho nanañe ondevo terak’ an-trañoko ao; toe nanam-piharo troke naho mpirai-lia maro te amy ze hene taoloko e Ierosa­laime ao.
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.
Natontoko amako ka ty volafoty naho ty volamena naho ty vara’ o mpanjaka naho tane fehekoo; nahazoako mpibeko lahilahy naho ampela, vaho ze mahanembanembañe ty tro’ o ana’ ondatio: sakeza tsifotofoto.
9 And I became great and I increased more than any who was before me in Jerusalem also wisdom my it remained to me.
Aa le nitoabotse, nandikoareko ze hene taoloko e Ierosalaime ao; vaho nifahatse amako i hihikoy.
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.
Tsy eo ty nitanako amo masokoo ze hene naina’e; tsy nikalañeko ami’ty troko ze atao finembanembàñe, fa nahafale ty troko o fitoloñako iabio, izay ty nanambe ahy amo hene tolon-drahakoo.
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.
Ie amy zao hinaraharako ze hene nanoen-tañako naho o fifanehafañe nanoekoo, le ingo fonga hakafoahañe, naho fañeañan-tioke, fa tsy aman-tombo’e ty ambane’ i àndroy.
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.
Aa le nitolike raho hañarahara ty hihitse naho ty hadagolàñe naho ty hagegeañe; fa inom-bao ty hanoe’ ze manonjohy i mpanjakay? Ts’ino naho tsy o fa noeñeo avao.
13 And I saw I that there [is] advantage of wisdom more than folly like [the] advantage of light more than darkness.
Nizoeko amy zao te likoare’ ty hihitse ty hadagolàñe manahake ty andikoara’ ty hazavàñe ty ieñe.
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.
Añambone’e eo ty fihaino’ o mahihitseo, fe mañavelo añ’ieñe ao ty dagola. Nirendreko amy zao te raik’ avao ty toly mifetsak’am’ iereo iaby.
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.
Aa hoe iraho am-batako, Ze mifetsak’ amy dagolay ty hidoñe amako kañe; aa vaho inom-barè ty maha-loho mahihitse ahy? le hoe iraho an-troko ao, hakafoahañe ka ie iaby izay.
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.
Toe tsy eo ty tsy ho modo fitiahiañe ty mahihitse naho i dagola, songa ho haliño amo andro mbe ho avio. sindre hivetrake ty dagola naho i mahihitse.
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.
Aa le nalaim-piaiñe iraho, fa nahangoae ahy ze fonga fanoeñe ambane’ i àndroy, fa hene kafo­ake, fañeañan-tioke avao.
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.
Eka, nihejeko ze fonga fitoloñako nifanehafako ambane’ i àndroy, ie tsy mete tsy hene hengako am’indaty manonjohy ahiy.
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.
Ia ty mahafohiñe, ke t’ie ondaty mahihitse, he dagola? Fe fonga ho fehe’e o nifanehafako naho nisafirie’ ty hihiko ambane’ i androio. Kafoake ka izay.
20 And I turned I to make despair heart my on all the toil that I have toiled under the sun.
Aa le nitolike iraho, nadoko hioremeñe ty troko amo hene tolon-draha nitoloñeko ambane’ i androio,
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.
Eo t’indaty nitoloñe an-kihitse naho hilala naho fahimbañañe, vaho atolo’e amy tsy nitoloñe ama’ey i anjara’ey. Hakafoahañe naho haloloañe!
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.
Ino ty ho azo’ ondaty amo fifanehafa’e iabio naho amo fimanean-tro’e nitoloña’e ambane’ i androio?
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 amo hene andro’eo, le fonga atsa-panaintaiñañe naho hasosorañe o fitoloña’eo; tsy mitofa o fitsakorea’eo ndra te haleñe. Kafoake ka izay.
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 eo ty mahasoa ondatio ta te mikama naho minoñe vaho manao an-tro’e te soa o fitoloña’eo. Izay ka ty nitreako boak’am-pitàn’ Añahare,
25 For who? will he eat and who? will he enjoy outside from me.
amy te ia ty hikama naho ia ty hifale mandikoatse ahy?
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.
Toe toloran’ Añahare hihitse naho hilala vaho hafaleañe ze no’e am-pivazohoa’e eo; f’ie ami’ty mpanao hakeo ro ampitoloña’e fanontonañe naho fampitoboroñañe, hanolora’e amo noron’ Añahareo. Toe hakoahañe ka izay, fañeañan-tioke.
