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.

Remember also your Creator in the days of your youth, before the evil days come, and the years draw near, 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.

Before the sun, the light, the moon, and the stars are darkened, and the clouds return 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 shall tremble, and the strong men shall bow themselves, and the grinders cease because they are few, and those who look out of the windows are darkened,

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.

and the doors shall be shut in the street; when the sound of the grinding is low, and one shall rise up at the voice of a bird, and all the daughters of music shall be brought 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.

Also, they are afraid of heights, and of terrors in the way; and the almond tree blossoms, and the grasshopper is burdened, and the caper bush fails; because man goes to his everlasting home, and the mourners go about 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 the silver cord is severed, or the golden bowl is broken, or the pitcher is broken at the spring, or the wheel broken at the cistern,

7 Ana'ma hanigeno'a kugusopamo'a eteno moparega vinkeno, tami'nea netega avamutimo'a Anumzamofontega ete vugahie.

and the dust returns to the earth as it was, and the spirit returns 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.

Vanity of vanities, says the Preacher. All is vanity.

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.

Further, because the Preacher was wise, he still taught the people knowledge. Yes, he pondered, sought out, and set in order many proverbs.

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 sought to find out acceptable words, and that which was written blamelessly, words of truth.

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 like goads; and like nails well fastened are words from the masters of collections, which are given from one shepherd.

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.

Furthermore, my son, be admonished: of making many books there is no end; and much study is a weariness of 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 end of the matter. All has been heard. Fear God, and keep his commandments; for this is the whole duty of man.

14 Hagi maka zantmima oku'a nehuna zane, knare tavutva nehuna zane, havi tavutva nehuna zantera Anumzamo'a keaga huranteno refko hugahie.

For God will bring every work into judgment, with every hidden thing, whether it is good, or whether it is evil.
