Ikrisiasatis 11
1 Kagra rama'a kaziga eri'zana e'nerinka, henka'a knare miza erigahane.
Cast your bread on the waters; for you shall find it after many days.
2 Zago fenonka'a 7ni'afino 8'afino refako hunka atregeno erizana erino. Na'ankure okima ama mopafima havizama fore'ma hania knazana ontahi'nane.
Give a portion to seven, yes, even to eight; for you don’t know what evil will be on the earth.
3 Hagi hampomo'ma ome knama nehuno'a, ko tagiramino nerie. Hagi zafama antagi atregeno'ma noti kazigo, sauti kazigama umasere anante nemane.
If the clouds are full of rain, they empty themselves on the earth; and if a tree falls towards the south, or towards the north, in the place where the tree falls, there shall it be.
4 Hanki kagrama zahoku'ene hampo koku'ma avegama antesunka avimzana hankrenka hoza ovasgegahane.
He who observes the wind won’t sow; and he who regards the clouds won’t reap.
5 Zaho'mofo kama kenka antahinka osuge, osi mofavrema areranku'afima fore'ma nehiazama kenka antahinka osanaza hunka, Anumzamo'ma e'neria eri'zane, maka zama tro'ma nehia zana kenka antahinka osugahane.
As you don’t know what is the way of the wind, nor how the bones grow in the womb of her who is with child; even so you don’t know the work of God who does all.
6 Nanterana avimza avinka'a nehankrenka, kinaganena avimza avina hankro. Na'ankure mago avimzamo'ma havizama hanigeno'a, mago avimzamo'a knare hugahie. Huge anantarega avimzamokea knare hugaha'e.
In the morning sow your seed, and in the evening don’t withhold your hand; for you don’t know which will prosper, whether this or that, or whether they both will be equally good.
7 Masa zamo'a haganentake hu'neankino, vahe'mo'za muse hu'za zagea negaze.
Truly the light is sweet, and it is a pleasant thing for the eyes to see the sun.
8 Hagi mago vahe'mo'ma rama'a kafu zagema manino vunaku'ma hanuno'a, ana maka knafina muse huno manino vino. Hianagi ana knaramimpina rama'a havi knaramina me'neanki, agera okanino. Ana maka zama esnia zana agafa'a omne'ne.
Yes, if a man lives many years, let him rejoice in them all; but let him remember the days of darkness, for they shall be many. All that comes is vanity.
9 Kasefa vahe'ma mani'zana knare hu'neanki, kasefa vahe'moka maka kna muse hunka nemaninka, nazano hunaku'ma hanana zana amne huo. Hianagi kagera okanio, maka zama hanana zana Anumzamo'a keaga huganteno refko hugahie.
Rejoice, young man, in your youth, and let your heart cheer you in the days of your youth, and walk in the ways of your heart, and in the sight of your eyes; but know that for all these things God will bring you into judgement.
10 E'ina hu'negu krimpa ahezana netrenka, kavufga kegava hunka manio. Na'ankure kasefa kavufgane hihamukanena amneza me'neankino agafa'a omane'ne.
Therefore remove sorrow from your heart, and put away evil from your flesh; for youth and the dawn of life are vanity.
