< Ikrisiasatis 12 >
1 Kasefa vahe'ma mani'nenante tro'ma hugante'nea Anumzanka'amofona antahineminka monora hunto. Hagi henkama havi knafima ufresunka nagra mani'zanigura musena osue hunka hugahane.
Let your mind be turned to your Maker in the days of your strength, while the evil days come not, and the years are far away when you will say, I have no pleasure in them;
2 Zagene ikane, hanafi'mofo masamo'ma kavurgare'ma rehanintirima nosnigeno, ko'ma nerigeno'ma negia hampomo'ma rehanintirima osu'nesire Anumzamofona antahimio.
While the sun, or the light, or the moon, or the stars, are not dark, and the clouds come not back after the rain;
3 Hagi ana knafina tamazamo'a hanavemo'a omanena tamahirahi nerenkeno, osi'a tamave nemenkeno, tamavua asu hugahie.
In the day when the keepers of the house are shaking for fear, and the strong men are bent down, and the women who were crushing the grain are at rest because their number is small, and those looking out of the windows are unable to see;
4 Kagesamo'ma ankani orenesigenka eri'zama enerisaza agasasama nentahisante Anumzamofona antahimio. Hagi menina ese nama ageru arigenka onetine. Hianagi ana maka namaramimofo agerumo'a agerura rume vuno ome osi huno taganegahie.
When the doors are shut in the street, and the sound of the crushing is low, and the voice of the bird is soft, and the daughters of music will be made low;
5 Agonaregama mareri zanku'ma koroma osuge, ra'naregama uramizanku'ma koro'ma osuge, almoni zafa amosre gna huno kazokamo efeke osuge, fri'zama nehia kenumo'ma hagagi hagagi'ma nehiaza osuge, vea zama hu kavesi'zamo'ma evuoramige'ma hu'nenire Anumzamofona antahimio. Mani vava kuma mati'matitegama vurava'o osuge, vogisifama omase'nenankeno vahe'mo'ma zavima ote'nenire Anumzanka'amofona antahimio.
And he is in fear of that which is high, and danger is in the road, and the tree is white with flower, and the least thing is a weight, and desire is at an end, because man goes to his last resting-place, and those who are sorrowing are in the streets;
6 Kasefa vahe'ma mani'nenante Anumzanka'amofona antahimio. Hagi silva nofimo akampru osunenigeno, golireti'ma tro'ma hu'naza kavomo'ma takoma osu'nenire tro'ma hugante'nea Anumzamofona antahimio. Avega ante'negeno tinkavomo'a takora huge, kavore'ma rente'nea nofi'ma avreno tinkerifima uneramia nofimo'a havizana osino.
Before ever the silver cord is cut, or the vessel of gold is broken, or the pot is broken at the fountain, or the wheel broken at the water-hole;
7 Ana'ma hanigeno'a kugusopamo'a eteno moparega vinkeno, tami'nea netega avamutimo'a Anumzamofontega ete vugahie.
And the dust goes back to the earth as it was, and the spirit goes back to God who gave it.
8 Mika zamo'a agafa'a omane'ne huno rempi humi' ne'mo'a hu'ne. Tamage huno ana maka zamo'a agafa'a omane'ne.
All things are to no purpose, says the Preacher, all is to no purpose.
9 Rempi humi ne'mo'a knare antahi'zana nagrike suzane huno osu'neanki, maka zama antahino keno'ma hu'nea zana vahetmina rempi huzmi'ne. Vahe'mofo knare antahi'zana antahino keno hu so'e huteno, isa'are erinte fatgo hutere huno krente'ne.
And because the Preacher was wise he still gave the people knowledge; searching out, testing, and putting in order a great number of wise sayings.
10 Hagi rempi humi ne'mo'a haganentake nanekema huama'ma hunakura hakeno keno erifore huteno, ana antahi'zana knare huno tamage nanekea eriama huno krente'ne.
The Preacher made search for words which were pleasing, but his writing was in words upright and true.
11 Knare antahi'zane vahe'mofo nanekemo'a, sipisipi afu azeri fatgo nehia agona azotagna hu'ne. Hagi knare antahi'zane vahe'mofo nanekema eri atruma hu'zamo'a, rama'a nirireti zafa ahentroko higeno hankavetino meankna hugahie.
The words of the wise are pointed, and sayings grouped together are like nails fixed with a hammer; they are given by one guide.
12 Hianagi mofavrenimoka mago'ene kavumro nanekea kasamigahue, rama'a avontafe'ma kre zankura kva huo. Na'ankure avontafe'ma kre'zamo'a atumpa'a omnegeno, avontafe'ma hamprino antahi'zama erizamo'a kazeri kavresra hugahie.
And further, my son, take note of this: of the making of books there is no end, and much learning is a weariness to the flesh.
13 Hago ana maka nanekea huvagaroe. Hagi amanage hu'na vagare nanekea hugahue, Anumzamofonku korora huntenka agoraga'a nemaninka kasege'a avaririo, na'ankure e'i ana maka vahe'mo'ma amage antesia ke me'ne.
This is the last word. All has been said. Have fear of God and keep his laws; because this is right for every man.
14 Hagi maka zantmima oku'a nehuna zane, knare tavutva nehuna zane, havi tavutva nehuna zantera Anumzamo'a keaga huranteno refko hugahie.
God will be judge of every work, with every secret thing, good or evil.
