Ecclesiastes 9
1 For all this I have given to heart my and to make clear all this that the righteous and the wise and deeds their [are] in [the] hand of God both love as well as hatred not [is] knowing humankind everything [is] before them.
Nga nunak yohk ke ma inge nukewa ke pacl na loeloes, ac nga liye lah God pa nununku mukuikui lun mwet lalmwetmet ac mwet suwoswos, finne nu ke lungse lalos ac srunga lalos. Wangin sie mwet etu lah mea oan meeto.
2 All [is] just as for all fate one [belongs] to the righteous and to the wicked to the good (and to the evil *X*) and to the clean and to the unclean and to the [one who] sacrifices and to [one] who not he [is] sacrificing as the good [person] as the sinner the [one who] swears an oath just as an oath [one] fearing.
Oana sie ma nukewa. Lumah sefanna ac tuku nu sin mwet suwoswos ac mwet sesuwos, nu sin mwet wo ac nu sin mwet koluk, nu sin mwet alu ac nu sin mwet tia alu, nu sin mwet orek kisa ac mwet tia orek kisa. Ma su sikyak nu sin sie mwet wo ac sikyak pacna nu sin sie mwet koluk. Sie mwet su orek wulela nu sin God el oapana mwet se ma tia orek wulela nu sin God.
3 This - [is] an evil in all that it is done under the sun for fate one [belongs] to everyone and also [the] heart of [the] children of humankind [is] full evil and madness [is] in heart their in lives their and after it to the dead.
Saflaiyen moul lun mwet nukewa ac oana sie, ac ma se inge tiana suwohs. Ke lusenna moul lun mwet uh, nunak lalos sessesla ke nunak koluk ac wel, na elos misa.
4 For who? [is [the] one] who (he is united *Q(K)*) to all the living there [is] hope for to a dog living it [is] good more than the lion dead.
Tusruktu kutena mwet su moul inmasrlon ma moul uh, oasr finsrak yorolos. Soko kosro ngalngul ma moul, wo liki soko lion ma misa.
5 For the living [are] knowing that they will die and the dead not they [are] knowing anything and not still [belongs] to them a reward for it is forgotten memory their.
Aok, mwet moul etu lah elos ac misa, a mwet misa wangin ma elos etu. Wangin mwe usru elos ac sifil eis. Mulkinyukla na pwaye elos.
6 Both love their as well as hatred their as well as envy their already it has perished and a portion not [belongs] to them again for ever in all that it is done under the sun.
Lungse lalos, srunga lalos, kena lalos, nufonna welulos na misa. Ac fah tia sifilpa oasr ma kunalos ke kutena ma su sikyak fin faclu.
7 Go eat with gladness food your and drink with a heart good wine your for already he has taken pleasure in God deeds your.
Ouinge kom in kang mongo nom ac engan. Nim wain nimom ke inse pwar. God El nuna oaki in ouinge.
8 At every time let them be clothes your white and oil on head your may not it be lacking.
Pacl nukewa kom in naweyukla ac akmusrala in fal nu ke pacl in engan.
9 See life with a wife whom you love all [the] days of [the] life of futility your which he has given to you under the sun all [the] days of futility your for that [is] portion your in life and in toil your which you [are] a laborer under the sun.
Engankin moul lom yurin mutan kiom su kom lungse, ke lusenna moul lusrongten ma God El sot nu sum fin faclu. Engankin kais sie len lusrongten inge, mweyen pa na ingan ma kom ac eis ke orekma kemkatu nukewa lom.
10 All that it finds hand your to do with strength your do for there not [is] work and explanation and knowledge and wisdom in Sheol where you [are] going there towards. (Sheol h7585)
Kutena ma kom oru, oru ke kuiyom mweyen ac fah wangin mukuikui, wangin nunak, wangin etauk, wangin lalmwetmet in facl sin mwet misa, tuh pa ingan acn se kom ac som nu we uh. (Sheol h7585)
11 I returned and I saw under the sun that not [belongs] to the swift the race and not [belongs] to the mighty [men] the battle and also not [belongs] to wise [people] food and also not [belongs] to the understanding wealth and also not [belongs] to the knowledgeable favor for time and chance it happens to all of them.
Oasr sie pac ma nga akilen ke moul lasr faclu: mwet mui uh tia eis kutangla pacl nukewa, ac mwet pulaik uh tia eis kutangla ke mweun pacl nukewa. Mwet lalmwetmet uh tia eis kasrpalos pacl nukewa, mwet usrnguk uh tia kasrup pacl nukewa, ac mwet ma fas ke orekma tia eis wal fulat pacl nukewa. Ma ongla ouiya uh sikyak nu sin mwet nukewa.
12 For also not he knows humankind time his like fish that [are] caught in a net evil and like birds that are caught in snare like them [are] ensnared [the] children of humankind to a time evil when that falls on them suddenly.
Kom tia ku in etu lah pacl lom uh ac tuku ngac. Oana won ma sremla ke sruhf in kitin pacl na, ku oana ik ma sremla ke kwa, kut ac sremla pac ke sie pacl na koluk ma kut tiana etu kac.
13 Also this I have seen wisdom under the sun and [was] great it to me.
Oasr pac sie ma nga liye, sie mwe srikasrak na wo ke nunkeyen lalmwetmet uh sin mwet faclu.
14 A city small and men in it [were] few and he came against it a king great and he surrounded it and he built on it siege works great.
Oasr sie siti srisrik ma mwet na pu muta we. Na sie tokosra na ku tuku mweuni acn sac. El kuhlusya ac akoo in fokolak pot uh ac utyak.
15 And someone found in it a man poor wise and he delivered he the city by wisdom his and anyone not he remembered the man poor (that. *L(abh)*)
Oasr sie mukul wi muta in acn sac. El sukasrup, tuh el lalmwetmet, ac el ku na in molela siti sac. Tusruktu wanginna mwet lohang nu sel.
16 And I said I [is] good wisdom more than strength and [the] wisdom of the poor [person] [is] despised and words his not they [are] listened to.
Nga fahk pacl nukewa lah lalmwetmet uh wo liki ku, tusruktu wangin mwet nunku mu mwet sukasrup ku in lalmwetmet, pwanang elos tiana lohang nu ke ma mwet sukasrup uh fahk.
17 [the] words of Wise [people] in quietness [are] heard more than [the] cry of a ruler among fools.
Wo in porongo pusra fisrasr lun sie mwet lalmwetmet, liki pusren wowoyak lun sie mwet kol inmasrlon mwet lalfon.
18 [is] good Wisdom more than weapons of war and a sinner one he will destroy good much.
Yohk ma wo tuku ke lalmwetmet liki na kufwen mwe mweun, tusruk sie mwet koluk el ku in forteya ma wo puspis.
