Ikrisiasatis 3
1 Ama mopafina maka'zama fore'ma hu kna metere higeno, maka'zama hu kna metere hu'ne.
To everything there is a season, and a time for every purpose under heaven:
2 Vahe'ma kasente kna megeno, vahe'ma fri kna me'ne. Hoza hankare kna megeno, hozama hamare kna me'ne.
a time to be born and a time to die, a time to plant and a time to uproot,
3 Vahe'ma ahefri kna megeno, vahe'ma azeri knamare kna me'ne. Maka'zama tapagema hutre kna megeno, ete kasefa'ma azeri otino ki kna me'ne.
a time to kill and a time to heal, a time to break down and a time to build,
4 Zavite kna megeno, kizamare kna me'ne. Asunku'ma hu kna megeno, musema huno avoma hage kna me'ne.
a time to weep and a time to laugh, a time to mourn and a time to dance,
5 Havema erino ometre eme atrema hu kna megeno, havema zogi atru hu kna me'ne. Vahe'ma azeri anuki kna megeno, vahe'ma azeri anuoki kna me'ne.
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 Keonke zanku'ma hake kna megeno, avresra huno'ma ohake kna me'ne. Mago'a zama erinte kna megeno, ante'nea zama eritre kna me'ne.
a time to search and a time to count as lost, a time to keep and a time to discard,
7 Kukenama tagato hu kna megeno, tagato'ma hu'nea zama rehati kna me'ne. Kema osuno mani kna megeno, keagama hu kna me'ne.
a time to tear and a time to mend, a time to be silent and a time to speak,
8 Vahe'ma avesinte kna megeno, vahe'ma avesrama hunte kna me'ne. Ha'ma hu kna megeno, ha'ma osuno rimpafru huno mani kna me'ne.
a time to love and a time to hate, a time for war and a time for peace.
9 Vahe'mo'ma tusi amuhoma huno eri fore nehia zamo'a, na'a knare'za eri fore nehie?
What does the worker gain from his toil?
10 Anumzamo'ma knazama tagumpima nentea zana nagra ke'noe.
I have seen the burden that God has laid upon the sons of men to occupy them.
11 Anumzamo'a mika zana kna fatgo'are knare zantfa huno tro hunte'ne. Ana nehuno manivava zana Anumzamo'a vahe'mofo tumopi ante'ne. Ana hu'neanagi Anumzamo'ma tro'ma hunte'nea zana eseteti'ma agafa huno vuno atumpare'ma vu'nea zantamina vahe'mo'a ke vagaore'ne.
He has made everything beautiful in its time. He has also set eternity in the hearts of men, yet they cannot fathom the work that God has done from beginning to end.
12 E'ina hu'negu mago'zama ke'na antahinama huana, muse nehuno knare avu'ava'ma hu'zamo maka'zana agatere'ne.
I know that there is nothing better for them than to rejoice and do good while they live,
13 Maka amuho'ma hu'zama eri fore'ma hanaza ne'zane, tinena nene'za musena hiho. Na'ankure e'i ana zantamina Anumzamo museza neramie.
and also that every man should eat and drink and find satisfaction in all his labor—this is the gift of God.
14 Nagra antahi'na ke'na huana, Anumzamo'ma tro'ma hu'nea zantera mago vahe'mo'a kasefa zana tro huntege, eri atregera osugahie. Anumzamo'ma tro'ma hunte'nea zana Agra ko tro hunte'neankino, mevava hugahie. Vahe'mo'zama Agri agoraga'ama mani'ne'za mono'ma huntesagu Anumzamo'a tro hunte'ne.
I know that everything God does endures forever; nothing can be added to it or taken from it. God does it so that they should fear Him.
15 Mika zama menima fore nehia zana, ko fore hu'nea zamo ete efore nehiankino, ama ana zamo'a henka fore hugahie. Na'ankure Anumzamo'ma ko'ma eri fore'ma hu'nea zanke eri fore huvava nehie.
What exists has already been, and what will be has already been, for God will call to account what has passed.
16 Mago zama ama mopafima koana, fatgo avu'ava'zama huga'zana netre'za, fatgo osu avu'ava zanke nehaze.
Furthermore, I saw under the sun that in the place of judgment there is wickedness, and in the place of righteousness there is wickedness.
17 E'ina hige'na amanahu antahintahi nagu'afina antahi'noe, Anumzamo'a fatgo vahe'ene kefo avu'ava'ma nehaza vahera keagare refko huzmantegahie. Na'ankure maka zama hu kna metere hu'neankino, miko tavutavara refko hugahie.
I said in my heart, “God will judge the righteous and the wicked, since there is a time for every activity and every deed.”
18 Hagi vahekura amanahu antahintahi nagra antahi'noe, zagagafa kna hu'none hu'zama ke'za antahi'zama hanagu Anumzamo'a vahera rezmaheno nezamage.
I said to myself, “As for the sons of men, God tests them so that they may see for themselves that they are but beasts.”
19 Na'ankure zagagafare'ma fore'ma hania zamo'a, vahetera fore hugahie. Zgagafamo'zama nefri'zaza hu'za vahe'mo'za nefrize. Magore huno vahe'mo'a zagagafa agateore'neanki, zagagafane vahe'enena mago zanke hu'na'e. E'ina hu zamo'a agafa'a omaneno knarera osu'ne.
For the fates of both men and beasts are the same: As one dies, so dies the other—they all have the same breath. Man has no advantage over the animals, since everything is futile.
20 Vahe'ene zagagafanema frisa'ana kugusopa segaha'e. Kugusopareti regripeno tro huzanante'negu, ete frisukea kugusopa segaha'e.
All go to one place; all come from dust, and all return to dust.
21 Vahe'mofo avamumo'a anagamu marenerisigeno, zagagafamofo avamumo'a mopafi ufregahie hu'za mago'a vahe'mo'za nehazanagi, tagra tamage kea ontahi'none.
Who knows if the spirit of man rises upward and the spirit of the animal descends into the earth?
22 E'ina hu'negu amuhoma huno'ma mago vahe'mo'ma eri fore'ma hania zana erinteno neneno musenkase hino. Na'ankure e'i amuhoma huno'ma eri'zama eri'nea zamofo mizane. E'ina hu'neankino henkama fore'ma hania zamofona, iza knarera hu'nea averi hugahie?
I have seen that there is nothing better for a man than to enjoy his work, because that is his lot. For who can bring him to see what will come after him?
