Eklezyas 9
1 Paske, tout sa mwen te pote kon fado nan kè m pou eksplike li; ke moun dwat yo, moun saj yo, avèk tout zèv yo nan men Bondye. Lòm pa konnen si se lanmou, oswa rayisman; nenpòt bagay kapab tann li.
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
2 Se menm bagay la pou tout moun. Gen yon sèl desten pou moun dwat yo ak mechan yo; pou bon an, pou moun san tach la, ak pou enpi a; pou sila ki ofri sakrifis ak sila ki pa ofri sakrifis la. Tankou sila ki dwat ak pechè a menm jan; tankou sila ki fè sèman an, se konsa sila ki refize sèmante a ye.
[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
3 Men yon mal nan tout sa ki konn fèt anba solèy la, ke gen menm desten an pou tout moun. Anplis, kè a fis a lòm yo plen mechanste, e foli rete nan kè yo pandan tout lavi yo. Apre, yo ale kote mò yo.
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
4 Paske, nenpòt moun ki jwenn ansanm ak lòt vivan yo gen espwa; anverite, yon chen vivan pi bon pase yon lyon ki mouri.
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
5 Paske vivan yo konnen ke y ap mouri; men mò yo pa konnen anyen; ni yo pa jwenn rekonpans ankò, paske memwa yo fin bliye nèt.
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
6 Anverite, lanmou yo, rayisman yo, ak fòs kouraj yo deja fin mouri, e yo pa gen pati ankò nan tout sa ki fèt anba solèy la.
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
7 Ale manje pen ou ak kè kontan e bwè diven ak kè plen ak jwa; paske Bondye deja pran plezi nan sa ou fè a.
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
8 Kite tout vètman ou yo rete blan tout tan, e pa kite lwil la manke sou tèt ou.
in/on/with all time to be garment your white and oil upon head your not to lack
9 Fè rejwisans lavi ou ak fanm ke ou renmen pandan tout jou kout lavi ou ke Li te bay ou anba solèy la. Paske sa se rekonpans ou nan lavi ak nan travay di ou konn fè anba solèy la.
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
10 Nenpòt sa ke men ou jwenn pou fè, fè l ak tout kouraj ou. Paske pa gen aktivite, ni plan, ni konesans, ni sajès nan Sejou mò kote ou prale a. (Sheol h7585)
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)
11 Anplis, mwen te wè anba solèy la ke kous la pa pou moun ki rapid la, ni batay la pa pou gwo gèrye yo, ni pen pou saj la, ni richès a sila ki byen konprann nan, ni favè a moun abil; paske tan avèk jan tout bagay dewoule vin genyen yo tout.
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
12 Anplis, lòm pa konnen lè li tankou pwason ki kenbe nan yon filè mechan an, o zwazo ki kenbe nan pèlen an. Se konsa fis a lòm yo sezi nan yon move moman. Epi lanmò an tonbe sou yo sibitman.
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
13 Sa osi, mwen te vin konprann kon sajès anba solèy la, e li te etone panse m.
also this to see: see wisdom underneath: under [the] sun and great: large he/she/it to(wards) me
14 Te gen yon ti vil ak kèk grenn moun ladann. Yon gran wa te parèt sou li, te antoure li, e te konstwi zam syèj kont li.
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
15 Men te twouve ladann yon malere byen saj; li te delivre vil la avèk sajès li. Men pa t gen pèsòn ki te sonje moun malere sila a.
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)*)
16 Konsa mwen te di: “Sajès pi bon pase pwisans.” Men sajès a malere a meprize, e pou pawòl li, pèsòn pa tande yo.
and to say I pleasant wisdom from might and wisdom [the] poor to despise and word his nothing they to hear: hear
17 Pawòl a saj k ap koute lè tout bagay kalm pi bon pase vwa chèf k ap rele fò nan mitan moun ensanse.
word wise in/on/with quietness to hear: hear from outcry to rule in/on/with fool
18 Sajès pi bon ke zam lagè; men yon sèl pechè detwi anpil ki bon.
pleasant wisdom from article/utensil battle and to sin one to perish welfare to multiply
