Ecclesiastes 9
1 for [obj] all this to give: put to(wards) heart my and to/for to explain [obj] all this which [the] righteous and [the] wise and work their in/on/with hand: power [the] God also love also hating nothing to know [the] man [the] all to/for face: before their
Kwa hiyo niliyatafakari yote haya nikafikia uamuzi kwamba waadilifu na wenye hekima na yale wanayoyafanya yako mikononi mwa Mungu, lakini hakuna mtu ajuaye kama anangojewa na upendo au chuki.
2 [the] all like/as as which to/for all accident one to/for righteous and to/for wicked to/for pleasant (and to/for bad: evil *X*) and to/for pure and to/for unclean and to/for to sacrifice and to/for which nothing he to sacrifice like/as pleasant like/as to sin [the] to swear like/as as which oath afraid
Wote wanayo hatima inayofanana, mwadilifu na mwovu, mwema na mbaya, aliye safi na aliye najisi, wale wanaotoa dhabihu na wale wasiotoa. Kama ilivyo kwa mtu mwema, ndivyo ilivyo kwa mtu mwenye dhambi; kama ilivyo kwa wale wanaoapa, ndivyo ilivyo kwa wale wasioapa.
3 this bad: evil in/on/with all which to make: do underneath: under [the] sun for accident one to/for all and also heart son: child [the] man full bad: evil and madness in/on/with heart their in/on/with life their and after him to(wards) [the] to die
Huu ni ubaya ulio katika kila kitu kinachotendeka chini ya jua: Mwisho unaofanana huwapata wote. Zaidi ya hayo, mioyo ya watu, imejaa ubaya na kuna wazimu mioyoni mwao wangali hai, hatimaye huungana na waliokufa.
4 for who? which (to unite *Q(K)*) to(wards) all [the] alive there trust for to/for dog alive he/she/it pleasant from [the] lion [the] to die
Yeyote aliye miongoni mwa walio hai analo tumaini, hata mbwa hai ni bora kuliko simba aliyekufa!
5 for [the] alive to know which/that to die and [the] to die nothing they to know anything and nothing still to/for them wages for to forget memorial their
Kwa maana walio hai wanajua kwamba watakufa, lakini wafu hawajui chochote, hawana tuzo zaidi, hata kumbukumbu yao imesahaulika.
6 also love their also hating their also jealousy their already to perish and portion nothing to/for them still to/for forever: enduring in/on/with all which to make: do underneath: under [the] sun
Upendo wao, chuki yao na wivu wao vimetoweka tangu kitambo, kamwe hawatakuwa tena na sehemu katika lolote linalotendeka chini ya jua.
7 to go: went to eat in/on/with joy food: bread your and to drink in/on/with heart pleasant wine your for already to accept [the] God [obj] deed your
Nenda, kula chakula chako kwa furaha, unywe divai yako kwa moyo wa shangwe, kwa maana sasa Mungu anakubali unachofanya.
8 in/on/with all time to be garment your white and oil upon head your not to lack
Daima uvae nguo nyeupe na daima upake kichwa chako mafuta.
9 to see: enjoy life with woman: wife which to love: lover all day life vanity your which to give: give to/for you underneath: under [the] sun all day vanity your for he/she/it portion your in/on/with life and in/on/with trouble your which you(m. s.) laborious underneath: under [the] sun
Furahia maisha na mke wako, umpendaye, siku zote za maisha ya ubatili uliyopewa na Mungu chini ya jua, siku zote za ubatili. Kwa maana hili ndilo fungu lako katika maisha na katika kazi yako ya taabu chini ya jua.
10 all which to find hand your to/for to make: do in/on/with strength your to make: do for nothing deed: work and explanation and knowledge and wisdom in/on/with hell: Sheol which you(m. s.) to go: went there [to] (Sheol h7585)
Lolote mkono wako upatalo kufanya, fanya kwa nguvu zako zote, kwa kuwa huko kuzimu, unakokwenda, hakuna kufanya kazi wala mipango wala maarifa wala hekima. (Sheol h7585)
11 to return: again and to see: see underneath: under [the] sun for not to/for swift [the] race and not to/for mighty man [the] battle and also not to/for wise food: bread and also not to/for to understand riches and also not to/for to know favor for time and chance to meet [obj] all their
Nimeona kitu kingine tena chini ya jua: Si wenye mbio washindao mashindano au wenye nguvu washindao vita, wala si wenye hekima wapatao chakula au wenye akili nyingi wapatao mali, wala wenye elimu wapatao upendeleo, lakini fursa huwapata wote.
12 for also not to know [the] man [obj] time his like/as fish which/that to grasp in/on/with net bad: evil and like/as bird [the] to grasp in/on/with snare like/as them to snare son: child [the] man to/for time bad: evil like/as which/that to fall: fall upon them suddenly
Zaidi ya hayo, hakuna mwanadamu ajuaye wakati saa yake itakapokuja: Kama vile samaki wavuliwavyo katika wavu mkatili, au ndege wanaswavyo kwenye mtego, vivyo hivyo wanadamu hunaswa na nyakati mbaya zinazowaangukia bila kutazamia.
13 also this to see: see wisdom underneath: under [the] sun and great: large he/she/it to(wards) me
Pia niliona chini ya jua mfano huu wa hekima ambao ulinivutia sana:
14 city small and human in/on/with her little and to come (in): come to(wards) her king great: large and to turn: surround [obj] her and to build upon her siegework great: large
Palikuwa na mji mdogo uliokuwa na watu wachache ndani yake. Mfalme mwenye nguvu akainuka dhidi yake, akauzunguka akaweka jeshi kubwa dhidi yake.
15 and to find in/on/with her man poor wise and to escape he/she/it [obj] [the] city in/on/with wisdom his and man not to remember [obj] [the] man [the] poor ([the] he/she/it *L(abh)*)
Katika mji huo kulikuwepo mtu mmoja maskini lakini mwenye hekima, naye akauokoa ule mji kwa hekima yake. Lakini hakuna aliyemkumbuka yule maskini.
16 and to say I pleasant wisdom from might and wisdom [the] poor to despise and word his nothing they to hear: hear
Kwa hiyo, nikasema, “Hekima ni bora kuliko nguvu.” Lakini hekima ya maskini imedharauliwa, wala hakuna anayesikiliza maneno yake.
17 word wise in/on/with quietness to hear: hear from outcry to rule in/on/with fool
Maneno ya utulivu ya mwenye hekima husikiwa kuliko makelele ya mtawala wa wapumbavu.
18 pleasant wisdom from article/utensil battle and to sin one to perish welfare to multiply
Hekima ni bora kuliko silaha za vita, lakini mwenye dhambi mmoja huharibu mema mengi.
