Eklezyas 10
1 Mouch mouri bay lwil pafen yon move odè; Se konsa yon ti kras foli gen pouvwa pou depase sajès ak respè.
fly death to stink to bubble oil to mix precious from wisdom from glory folly little
2 Kè a yon moun saj mennen li adwat, men kè a moun san konprann nan mennen l agoch.
heart wise to/for right his and heart fool to/for left his
3 Menm lè ensanse a mache nan lari li manke bon tèt. Li montre tout moun ke se moun fou li ye.
and also in/on/with way: road (like/as which/that fool *Q(K)*) to go: walk heart his to lack and to say to/for all fool he/she/it
4 Si kòlè a wa a vin monte kont ou, pa abandone pozisyon ou; paske rete kalm ka evite gwo ofans.
if spirit: temper [the] to rule to ascend: rise upon you place your not to rest for healing to rest sin great: large
5 Gen yon mal mwen konn wè anba solèy la, tankou yon fot ki sòti nan sila k ap gouvène a——
there distress: evil to see: see underneath: under [the] sun like/as unintentionally which/that to come out: come from to/for face: before [the] domineering
6 Foli plase nan anpil kote byen wo pandan rich yo chita kote ki ba.
to give: put [the] folly in/on/with height many and rich in/on/with poverty to dwell
7 Mwen konn wè esklav ki monte sou cheval ak prens k ap mache atè tankou esklav.
to see: see servant/slave upon horse and ruler to go: walk like/as servant/slave upon [the] land: soil
8 Sila ki fouye fè yon twou ka byen tonbe ladann, e yon sèpan ka mòde gèrye a ki kraze yon miray.
to search pit in/on/with him to fall: fall and to break through wall to bite him serpent
9 Sila ki taye wòch yo ka blese ladann, e sila ki fann gwo bout bwa a kapab an danje.
to set out stone to hurt in/on/with them to break up/open tree: stick to endanger in/on/with them
10 Si rach la pa gen tay, e li pa file pwent li; alò, li va egzije plis fòs. Avantaj a sajès se reyisi!
if be blunt [the] iron and he/she/it not face to lighten and strength to prevail and advantage (to succeed *Q(k)*) wisdom
11 Si sèpan an mòde avan li vin chame, nanpwen pwofi.
if to bite [the] serpent in/on/with not charm and nothing advantage to/for master: [master of] [the] tongue
12 Pawòl ki soti nan bouch sila ki saj la plen ak gras, men pawòl a moun ensanse a fin manje l nèt;
word lip wise favor and lips fool to swallow up him
13 Kòmansman diskou ensanse a se foli, e fen diskou li se plen mechanste ak betiz.
beginning word lip his folly and end lip: word his madness bad: evil
14 Malgre tout sa, moun ensanse a ogmante pawòl li yo. Pèsòn pa konnen sa ki va rive, e kilès kab di li sa ki va rive apre li.
and [the] fool to multiply word not to know [the] man what? which/that to be and which to be from after him who? to tell to/for him
15 Zèv a moun ensanse a tèlman fatige l, ke li pa konnen kijan pou li rive nan vil la.
trouble [the] fool be weary/toil him which not to know to/for to go: journey to(wards) city
16 Malè a ou menm, O peyi ki gen jenn ti gason kon wa; ak prens yo k ap fè fèt granmaten.
woe! to/for you land: country/planet which/that king your youth and ruler your in/on/with morning to eat
17 Beni se ou menm, O peyi ki gen yon fis byen prepare kon wa a ak prens ki manje nan pwòp lè yo, pou bay fòs, e non pou fè banbòch vin sou.
blessed you land: country/planet which/that king your son: child noble and ruler your in/on/with time to eat in/on/with might and not in/on/with drunkenness
18 Akoz parès ak neglijans, twati a vin pann, e nan enpridans kay la vin koule.
in/on/with sluggishness to sink [the] rafter and in/on/with idleness hand to drip [the] house: home
19 Yon gwo tab manje fèt pou yo rejwi yo, diven pou fè kè kontan; epi lajan se repons pou tout bagay.
to/for laughter to make food: bread and wine to rejoice life and [the] silver: money to answer [obj] [the] all
20 Anplis, nan chanm a kouche ou, pa bay wa a madichon; e nan chanm a kouche ou, pa bay yon moun rich madichon. Paske yon zwazo syèl la ka pote bri a, e sa ki gen zèl yo ka fè yo konnen bagay la.
also in/on/with knowledge your king not to lighten and in/on/with chamber bed your not to lighten rich for bird [the] heaven to go: take [obj] [the] voice and master: men (wing *Q(K)*) to tell word: thing
