Eklezyas 7
1 Yon bon non pi bon pase yon pomad swa, e jou mouri pi bon pase jou nou te ne a.
[is] good A name more than ointment good and [the] day of death more than [the] day of being born he.
2 Li pi bon pou ale nan kay k ap fè dèy pase nan kay k ap fè fèt; paske se konsa ke chak moun va fini, e sila ki vivan an pran sa a kè.
[is] good To go to a house of mourning more than to go to a house of a feast in that this [is] [the] end of every person and the living person he will give to heart his.
3 Tristès pi bon pase ri; paske lè figi moun nan tris, kè la vin pi bon.
[is] good Vexation more than laughter for by sadness of face it will be good a heart.
4 Panse a saj la anndan lakay k ap fè dèy; men panse a san konprann nan kay plezi.
[the] heart of Wise people [is] in a house of mourning and [the] heart of fools [is] in a house of gladness.
5 Li pi bon pou koute repwòch a yon nonm saj pase pou yon moun ta koute chanson a moun san konprann yo.
[is] good To listen to [the] rebuke of a wise [person] more than someone [who] listens to [the] song of fools.
6 Paske tankou bwa pikan sèch pete nan dife; se konsa lè yon nonm ensanse ap ri; epi sa anplis se vanite.
For like [the] sound of thorns under the pot so [the] laughter of the fool and also this [is] futility.
7 Paske chantay ka fè yon nonm saj vin fou, e lajan anba tab fè kè vin konwonpi.
For oppression it will make look foolish a wise [person] so it may destroy a heart a bribe.
8 Lè yon bagay fin fèt, li pi bon pase lè l te kòmanse a. Pasyans nan lespri pi bon pase awogans lespri a.
[is] good [the] end of A matter more than beginning its [is] good a [person] patient of spirit more than a [person] proud of spirit.
9 Pa chofè kè ou pou vin fache; paske fache rete nan kè a moun ensanse.
May not you be hasty in spirit your to become angry for anger in [the] bosom of fools it settles.
10 Pa di: “Poukisa jou lontan yo te pi bon pase jodi a”? Paske nanpwen sajès nan kesyon sa a.
May not you say why? was it that the days former they were good more than these for not from wisdom you have asked on this.
11 Sajès ansanm ak eritaj bon, e se yon avantaj pou sila ki konn wè solèy yo.
[is] good Wisdom with an inheritance and [is] an advantage to [those who] see the sun.
12 Paske sajès se yon pwotèj, menm ke lajan se yon pwotèj la; men avantaj a bon konprann nan se ke sajès va prezève lavi a sila ki genyen l.
For [is] a shade wisdom [is] a shade money and [the] advantage of knowledge wisdom it preserves alive owners its.
13 Konsidere zèv Bondye yo, paske se kilès ki ka drese sa ke Li menm te koube?
Consider [the] work of God for who? is he able to straighten [that] which he has bent it.
14 Nan jou bonè yo fè kè kontan; men nan jou malè yo, reflechi—Bondye te fè tou de pou lòm pa dekouvri anyen nan sa k ap swiv li.
On a day of good be in good and on a day of adversity consider also this exactly as this he has made God on reason that not he will find out humankind after him anything.
15 Mwen te wè tout bagay pandan tout jou vanite mwen yo; gen yon nonm dwat ki mouri nan ladwati, ak yon nonm mechan ki fè vi li long ak mechanste li a.
Everything I have seen in [the] days of futility my there [is] a righteous [person] [who] perishes in righteousness his and there [is] a wicked [person] [who] prolongs in evil his.
16 Pa fè eksè nan ladwati, ni pa vin twò saj. Poukisa ou ta detwi pwòp tèt ou?
May not you be righteous greatly and may not you make yourself wise excess why? will you destroy yourself.
17 Pa fè eksè nan mechanste, ni pa vin ensanse. Poukisa ou ta vle mouri avan lè ou?
May not you be wicked greatly and may not you be a fool why? will you die at not time your.
18 Li bon pou ou ta kenbe pran yon bagay san ou pa lage lòt la; paske sila ki gen lakrent Bondye a ap vini ak tou de.
[is] good That you will take hold on this and also from this may not you give rest to hand your for [one] fearing God he will go out all of them.
19 Sajès ranfòse yon nonm saj plis pase dis gwo chèf ki nan yon vil.
Wisdom it gives strength to the wise [person] more than ten rulers who they are in the city.
20 Anverite, nanpwen yon moun dwat sou latè ki fè sa ki bon tout tan, e ki pa janm peche.
For a person there not [is] righteous [person] on the earth who he does good and not he sins.
21 Anplis, pa pran a kè tout pawòl ki pale, sof ke ou ta tande sèvitè ou lè l ap bay ou madichon.
Also to all the words which people speak may not you give heart your that not you will hear servant your cursing you.
22 Paske ou vin konprann ke ou menm tou anpil fwa konn bay moun madichon.
For also times many it knows heart your that also (you *Q(K)*) you have cursed others.
23 Mwen te tante fè tout sa ak sajès e mwen te di: “Mwen va saj”, men sa te chape lwen mwen.
All this I have put to [the] test by wisdom I said let me be wise and it [was] far from me.
24 Sa ki te konn egziste vin lwen, e se yon mistè menm. Se kilès ki ka dekouvri li?
[is] far away Whatever [that] which has been and deep - deep who? will he find out it.
25 Mwen te dirije panse m pou konnen; pou fè ankèt e chache sajès avèk rezon, e pou konnen mechanste se foli; e foli menm rive fè moun fou.
I turned I heart my to know and to examine and to seek wisdom and an explanation and to know wickedness stupidity and the folly madness.
26 Epi mwen te dekouvri pi anmè pase mouri, kè a fanm ki fè pèlen an. Men li yo se tankou chenn. Yon moun ki plè Bondye va chape anba men l, men pechè a va vin kaptire anba l.
And [was] finding I bitter more than death the woman who she [is] snares and [is] nets heart her [are] fetters hands her a [person] good before God he escapes from her and a sinner he is captured by her.
27 “Gade byen, se sa mwen dekouvri,” predikatè a di: “Ajoute yon bagay a yon lòt pou twouve konprann.”
Consider this I have found she said Teacher one to one to find an explanation.
28 Sou sila m toujou ap chache a, men m poko jwenn; mwen te twouve yon nonm pami mil, men mwen pa t jwenn fanm pami tout sa yo.
Which again it has sought self my and not I have found a man one of a thousand I have found and a woman among all these not I have found.
29 Men gade, se sèl sa mwen dekouvri; Bondye te fè lòm kanpe dwat, men yo chache anpil manèv pou vin koube.
Only consider this I have found that he made God humankind upright and they they have sought schemes many.
