Ikrisiasatis 6
1 Hagi mago kefo zama mopafima me'neno'ma vahe'mofoma knama nemia zama koana,
There is an evil which I have seen under the sun, and it lieth heavy upon men;
2 Anumzamo'a mago'a vahera zago fenona nezmianagi, ana vahera atregeno amuho'ma huno eri fore'ma nehiazana neneno musena nosie. Hianagi ana vahe'mo'a ana zantamina atreno frigeno, ru vahe'mo'za e'nerize. E'i zamo'a havizantfa hu'neankino, agafa'a omne'ne.
a man to whom God hath given riches, wealth, and honor, and nothing is wanting to him of all which he desireth, yet God giveth him not to taste thereof; but a stranger enjoyeth it. This is vanity, yea, a grievous evil.
3 Hagi mago ne'mo'ma 100'a mofavreramima anteteno muse osu nomani'zama manime vuno ozafa omereno frisige'zama knare'ma hu'za aseontesageno'a, haviza hugahie. Arera arimpafima fri'negeno'ma kasentea mofavrema asente'zamo, ana nera agatereno knare zantfa hugahie.
Though a man have a hundred children, and live many years, and though the days of his years be many, if his soul be not satisfied with good, and he have no burial, I say that an untimely birth is better than he.
4 Na'ankure e'inahu mofavremo'a arera rimpafima fritegeno kasentegeno, frino amnezankna higeno hanizamo refitegeno agi'a nomane.
This, indeed, cometh in nothingness, and goeth down into darkness, and its name is covered with darkness;
5 E'i ana fri mofavremo'a zagea kege, mago zana keno antahinora nosianagi, 100'a mofavrema anteteno manime vuno ozafa omereno fria nera agatereno manigasa nehie.
it hath not seen the sun, nor known it; yet hath it rest rather than the other.
6 Hagi ana ne'mo'ma 1 tausenia kafu'a maniteno ete mago'ane 2 tauseni'a kafua manigahianagi, mani'zama'afima musema huno mani'noma ovaniana knarera osu'ne. Na'ankure tarega'mokea magozahu huke frike magoke kumapi umanigaha'e.
Yea, though he live a thousand years twice told, and see no good, — do not all go to one place?
7 Vahe'mo'ma maka eri'zama amuhoma huno eneriana agrama agipima nesia zanku eri'zana enerie. Hianagi ana nezamo'a amura nosie.
All the labor of man is for his mouth, and yet his desires are not satisfied.
8 E'ina hu'negu inankna kazigati knare antahi'zane ne'mo'a, neginagi antahi'zane nera agatere'ne? Hagi amunte omne ne'mo'ma maka zama eri fore nehuno, vahe zamavugama knare avu'ava'ma huno vanoma hania zamo'a, nankna huno aza hugahie?
For what advantage hath the wise man over the fool? What advantage hath the poor, who knoweth how to walk before the living?
9 Nazano ante'nenana zankura muse nehunka, onte'nenana zama erizankura antahintahia huvava osuo. E'inahu zamo'a zaho'ma avaririankna hu'neankino, agafa'a omane'ne.
Better is the sight of the eyes than the wandering of the desire. This also is vanity, and striving after wind.
10 Maka zama fore'ma huno me'neana, ko agia ante'nea zantaminke megeno, nanknahu zantami mago mago vahetera fore hugahie, ko Anumzamo'a keno antahino hu'ne. E'ina hu'negu agafa'a omane zantera, Anumzamo'enena kehara osuo.
That which is was long ago called by name; and it was known that he is a man, and that he cannot contend with Him who is mightier than he.
11 Rama'a kema hu zampintira, ana kemofo agafa'a ontahigahane. E'ina hu'negu rama'a kema hanunka, nankna knare'za erifore hugahane?
Seeing there are many things which increase vanity, what advantage hath man [[from them]]?
12 Osi'a knama ama mopafima manisunana, so'e manizama mani'zana iza antahino keno hu'ne. Mago'a zamofo amema'amo'ma hiaza huta, osi'a knafima agafa'a omane nomanizama manisuna knafina, knare'ma huno manisia zana magomo'e huno keno antahinora osu'ne. Fritama vutesunkenoma ama mopafima fore'ma hania zana, mago vahe'mo'a keno antahinora osugahie.
For who knoweth what is good for man in life, in all the days of his vain life, which he spendeth as a shadow? For who can tell a man what shall be after him under the sun?
