Eclesiastes 3
1 Ta adda naituding a tiempo para iti amin a banag, ken panawen para iti tunggal panggep iti baba ti langit.
To every thing there is a season, and a time to every purpose under the heaven:
2 Adda tiempo iti pannakaiyanak ken adda tiempo iti pannakatay, adda tiempo iti panagmula ken tiempo iti panangparut kadagiti mula,
A time to be born, and a time to die; a time to plant, and a time to pluck up that which is planted;
3 adda tiempo iti panangpapatay ken adda tiempo iti pannakapaimbag, adda tiempo iti panangdadael ken adda tiempo iti panangbangon,
A time to kill, and a time to heal; a time to break down, and a time to build up;
4 adda tiempo iti panagsangit ken adda tiempo iti panagkatawa, adda tiempo iti panagladingit ken adda tiempo iti panagsasala,
A time to weep, and a time to laugh; a time to mourn, and a time to dance;
5 adda tiempo iti panangipurwak kadagiti batbato, ken adda tiempo iti panagurnong kadagiti batbato, adda tiempo iti panangarakup kadagiti dadduma a tattao ken adda tiempo iti panagliklik manipud iti pannakaarakup,
A time to cast away stones, and a time to gather stones together; a time to embrace, and a time to refrain from embracing;
6 adda tiempo ti panagbiruk kadagiti banbanag ken adda tiempo ti panagsardeng ti panagbirbiruk, adda tiempo ti panagidulin kadagiti banbanag ken adda tiempo ti panagibelleng kadagiti banbanag,
A time to get, and a time to lose; a time to keep, and a time to cast away;
7 adda tiempo ti panagpigis kadagiti kawkawes ken adda tiempo ti panagisimpa kadagiti kawkawes, adda tiempo ti panagulimek ken adda tiempo ti panagsao,
A time to rend, and a time to sew; a time to keep silence, and a time to speak;
8 adda tiempo ti panagayat ken adda tiempo ti panaggura, adda tiempo para iti gubat ken adda tiempo para iti kappia.
A time to love, and a time to hate; a time of war, and a time of peace.
9 Ania ti magunggona ti trabahador kadagiti pagbanbanoganna?
What profit hath he that worketh in that wherein he laboureth?
10 Nakitakon ti trabaho nga inted ti Dios kadagiti tattao a leppasenda.
I have seen the travail, which God hath given to the sons of men to be exercised in it.
11 Inaramid ti Dios dagiti amin a banbanag a maitutop iti umno a tiempo. Inkabilna pay ti kinaagnanayon kadagiti puspusoda. Ngem saan a maawatan ti sangkatoan dagiti inaramid ti Dios, manipud kadagiti rugrugida agingga kadagiti panagleppasda.
He hath made every thing beautiful in his time: also he hath set eternity in their heart, so that no man can find out the work that God maketh from the beginning to the end.
12 Ammok nga awan ti nasaysayaat para iti siasinoman ngem ti agrag-o ken agaramid iti nasayaat kas agbibiag isuna—
I know that there is no good in them, but for a man to rejoice, and to do good in his life.
13 ken mangan ken uminom koma ti tunggal maysa ken maawatanda koma no kasano a ragsakenda dagiti nasasayaat nga aggapu kadagiti amin a trabahoda. Sagut daytoy manipud iti Dios.
And also that every man should eat and drink, and enjoy the good of all his labour, it is the gift of God.
14 Ammok nga agtalinaed nga agnanayon ti aniaman nga aramiden ti Dios. Awan ti mainayon wenno maikkat iti daytoy, gapu ta ti Dios ti nangaramid iti daytoy tapno umasideg dagiti tattao kenkuana nga addaan iti dayaw.
I know that, whatsoever God doeth, it shall be for ever: nothing can be put to it, nor any thing taken from it: and God doeth it, that men should fear before him.
15 Aniaman nga adda ket addan idi, aniaman nga umaddanto ket addan. Inaramid ti Dios nga agbirok dagiti tattao kadagiti nakalemmeng a banbanag.
That which hath been is now; and that which is to be hath already been; and God requireth that which is past.
16 Ket nakitak nga iti baba ti init, adda ti kinadangkes iti ayan koma ti hustisia, ken iti lugar ti kinalinteg ket masansan a masarakan ti kinadangkes.
And moreover I saw under the sun the place of judgment, that wickedness was there; and the place of righteousness, that iniquity was there.
17 Kinunak iti pusok, “Ukomento ti Dios ti nalinteg ken nadangkes iti umno a tiempo para iti tunggal pasamak ken tunggal aramid.”
I said in mine heart, God shall judge the righteous and the wicked: for there is a time there for every purpose and for every work.
18 Kinunak iti pusok, “Subsuboken ti Dios dagiti tattao tapno ipakitana kadakuada a kasla da la dagiti ayup.”
I said in mine heart concerning the estate of the sons of men, that God might manifest them, and that they might see that they themselves are beasts.
19 Ta agpada a gasat ti mapaspasamak kadagiti tattao a mapaspasamak kadagiti ayup. Kas kadagiti ayup, matay amin a tattao. Masapul nga umangesda amin ti agpada nga angin, tapno iti kasta a wagas awan ti pangatiwan dagiti tattao kadagiti ayup. Saan kadi a kasla laeng napardas nga anges dagiti amin a banag?
For that which befalleth the sons of men befalleth beasts; even one thing befalleth them: as the one dieth, so dieth the other; yea, they have all one breath; so that a man hath no preeminence above a beast: for all is vanity.
20 Maymaysa a lugar ti pappapanan dagiti amin a banag. Naggapu amin iti tapok, ket agsubli amin iti tapok.
All go unto one place; all are of the dust, and all turn to dust again.
21 Siasino ti makaammo no ti espiritu ti sangkataoan ket agpangato ken dagiti espiritu dagiti ayup ket agpababa iti uneg ti daga?
Who knoweth the spirit of man that goeth upward, and the spirit of the beast that goeth downward to the earth?
22 Isu a naamirisko manen nga awan ti nasaysayaat para ti siasinoman ngem ti agragsak iti trabahona, ta dayta ti naituding nga aramidenna. Siasino ti makaisubli kenkuana tapno makitana no ania ti mapasamak kalpasan ti biagna?
Wherefore I perceive that there is nothing better, than that a man should rejoice in his own works; for that is his portion: for who shall bring him to see what shall be after him?
