< Ecclesiastes 1 >

1 The words of the preacher, the son of David, king of Jerusalem.
Rempi humi ne' Deviti nemofo Jerusalemi kumate kini ne' Solomoni naneke.
2 Vanity of vanities, saith the preacher, vanity of vanities; all [is] vanity.
Rempi humi ne'mo'a huno, Mika zamofona agafa'a omaneno! Agafa'a omanegeno, ana maka zamo'a agafa'a omnetfa hu'ne.
3 What profit hath a man of all his labor, which he taketh under the sun?
Vahe'mo'za tusi amuho hu'za ama mopafina eri'zana e'nerizanagi, ana eri'zampintira na'a erifore hugahaze?
4 [One] generation passeth away, and [another] generation cometh: but the earth abideth for ever.
Vahera efore huno frino nevanigeno, ru vahera ete efore huno frino nevianagi, ama mopamo'a mevava huno ne-e.
5 The sun also riseth, and the sun goeth down, and hasteth to his place where he arose.
Maka nanterana zagemo'a hanatiteno evuno kinagama segeno'a ufreteno, ete agareno anama hanati'nere enevie.
6 The wind goeth towards the south, and turneth about to the north; it whirleth about continually, and the wind returneth again according to its circuits.
Hagi zaho'ma eriana sauti kazigati erino vuno ome arugagino, ete noti kaziga vuno ome arugagino, zahora erino kagigagi nehie.
7 All the rivers run into the sea; yet the sea [is] not full; to the place from whence the rivers come, thither they return again.
Hagi maka timo'za kampui hanatite'za vu'za hagerimpinke unefrazanagi, hagerimo'a avira note. Hagi ana timo'za hagerimpima vute'za, ete anama hanati'nazareti eme aru hanati'za ete hagerimpina nevaze.
8 All things [are] full of labor; man cannot utter [it]: the eye is not satisfied with seeing, nor the ear filled with hearing.
Maka ama mopafi zantaminku'ma antahintahima hu'zamo'a, tusiza huno tavesra nehiankita hu amara hugara nosune. Tavumo'a rama'a zantmi negeanagi, mago'ane ke'nia agesage nehie. Anahukna huno tagesamo'a rama'a keaga nentahianagi, mago'ane antahinia agesage nehie.
9 The thing that hath been, it [is that] which shall be; and that which is done [is] that which shall be done: and [there is] no new [thing] under the sun.
Hakare zama menima fore'ma nehia zana, korapa fore hu'nea zamo fore nehie. E'ina hu'neankino ama mopafima fore'ma nehia zantamina magora kasefa zana forera nosianki, korapa fore hu'nea zantmi fore nehie.
10 Is there [any] thing of which it may be said, See, this [is] new? it hath been already of old time, which was before us.
Mago'mo'a huno amazana kasefaza fore nehianki keho huno osugahie. Na'ankure mika'zana korapa fore osu'nonkeno fore hu'neaza ete fore nehie.
11 [There is] no remembrance of former [things]; neither shall there be [any] remembrance of [things] that are to come with [those] that shall come after.
Korapama fore'ma hu'nea zantaminkura antahintahia osu zamagenekanize. Hanki henkama fore'ma hanaza vahe'mo'za menima nehu'na zantaminkura zamage akanigahaze.
12 I the preacher was king over Israel in Jerusalem.
Nagra Rempi huzmi ne'mo'na Jerusalemi kumate mani'ne'na, Israeli vahe kinia mani'na kegava huzmante'noe.
13 And I gave my heart to seek and search out by wisdom concerning all [things] that are done under heaven: this grievous labor hath God given to the sons of man to be exercised with it.
Ama mopafima me'nege'zama maka zama nehaza zana, nagra knare antahi'zanteti, refako hu'na ke'na antahi'nama huana Anumzamo'a tusi knaza vahe'mofona kofintegeno, knazana e'nerize.
14 I have seen all the works that are done under the sun; and behold, all [is] vanity and vexation of spirit.
Mika zana ama mopafima nehaza zama koana, agafa'a omane'za nehazanki'za, zaho'ma avararizankna nehaze.
15 [That which is] crooked cannot be made straight: and that which is wanting cannot be numbered.
Kazakinesia zana azeri fatgo osugahane. Hagi omne'nenia zana ohamprigahane.
16 I communed with my own heart, saying, Lo, I have come to great estate, and have gained more wisdom than all [they] that have been before me in Jerusalem: and my heart had great experience of wisdom and knowledge.
Nagra'agura amanage hu'na hu'noe, mika Jerusalemi kumate'ma efore'ma hu'za kinima mani'ne'za vahe'ma kegavama huzmante'naza, kini vahetmina zamagatere'na nagra knare antahi'zana eri'noe. Kote'ma mani'zama e'naza kini vahetmina zamagatere'na, rama'a knare antahi'zane, antahintahizanena eri'noe.
17 And I gave my heart to know wisdom, and to know madness and folly: I perceived that this also is vexation of spirit.
Ana hute'na ete knare antahi'zane neginagi antahi'zane erinte'na refko hu'na ke'noanagi, e'i ana zampinti'ma ke'na eri fore'ma huana, e'i ana zamo'enena zaho'ma arotagoma hiankna hu'ne.
18 For in much wisdom [is] much grief: and he that increaseth knowledge increaseth sorrow.
Na'ankure rama'a knare antahintahima eri zamo'a rama'a kasu zampi manigahane, mago'anema rama'a antahintahi zama eri'zamo'a anahukna hunka mago'ane mareri agatere kasunku zampi manigahane.
