Mai Hadishi 6
1 Na ga wani mugun abu a duniya, ya kuma nawaita wa mutane ƙwarai.
There is an evil which I have seen under the sun, and it lieth heavy upon men;
2 Allah yakan ba mutum dukiya, da wadata da kuma girma, don kada yă rasa abin da ransa yake so, amma Allah bai ba shi zarafin more su ba, a maimakon haka ma sai baƙo ne yă more su. Wannan ba shi da amfani, mugun abu ne ƙwarai.
a man to whom God hath given riches, wealth, and honor, and nothing is wanting to him of all which he desireth, yet God giveth him not to taste thereof; but a stranger enjoyeth it. This is vanity, yea, a grievous evil.
3 Mutum zai iya kasance da’ya’ya ɗari, yă kuma yi shekaru masu yawa; duk da haka kome daɗewarsa, in bai more wadatarsa ba, bai kuma sami kyakkyawar binnewa ba, na ce, gara wanda aka haife shi gawa.
Though a man have a hundred children, and live many years, and though the days of his years be many, if his soul be not satisfied with good, and he have no burial, I say that an untimely birth is better than he.
4 Haihuwa ba tă amfane wanda aka haifa gawa ba, gama ya zo daga duhu ya koma duhu inda aka manta da shi.
This, indeed, cometh in nothingness, and goeth down into darkness, and its name is covered with darkness;
5 Ko da yake bai ga hasken rana ba, bai kuma san kome ba, duk da haka ya dai huta, fiye da mutumin da bai more wa ransa ba,
it hath not seen the sun, nor known it; yet hath it rest rather than the other.
6 ko da ya yi shekara dubu biyu amma bai more wadatarsa ba. Ba wuri ɗaya dukansu biyu za su tafi ba?
Yea, though he live a thousand years twice told, and see no good, — do not all go to one place?
7 Dukan ƙoƙarin da mutum yake yi, yana yi ne domin bakinsa, duk da haka bai taɓa gamsar da abin da yake marmari.
All the labor of man is for his mouth, and yet his desires are not satisfied.
8 Da me mai hikima ya fi wawa? Wace riba ce matalauci yakan samu don yă iya zama da mutane?
For what advantage hath the wise man over the fool? What advantage hath the poor, who knoweth how to walk before the living?
9 Gara abin da ido ya gani da kwaɗayin da bai sami biyan bukata ba. Wannan ma ba shi da amfani, naushin iska ne kawai.
Better is the sight of the eyes than the wandering of the desire. This also is vanity, and striving after wind.
10 Duk abin da ya kasance, to, yana da suna, kuma duk abin da mutum yake, an riga an sani. Ba mutumin da zai iya ƙarawa da wanda ya fi shi ƙarfi.
That which is was long ago called by name; and it was known that he is a man, and that he cannot contend with Him who is mightier than he.
11 Yadda yawan magana take haka ƙarancin amfaninta, yaya wannan zai amfane wani?
Seeing there are many things which increase vanity, what advantage hath man [[from them]]?
12 Gama wa ya san abin da ya fi dacewa ga mutum a’yan kwanakinsa marasa amfani da sukan wuce kamar inuwa? Wa kuma zai iya faɗa masa abin da zai faru a duniya bayan ya rasu?
For who knoweth what is good for man in life, in all the days of his vain life, which he spendeth as a shadow? For who can tell a man what shall be after him under the sun?
