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 is heavy on 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 gives riches, wealth, and honor, so that he lacks nothing for his soul of all that he desires, yet God gives him no power to eat of it, but an alien eats it. This is vanity, and it is an evil disease.
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.
If a man fathers a hundred children, and lives many years, so that the days of his years are many, but his soul is not filled with good, and moreover he has no burial, I say that a stillborn child is better than he;
4 Na'ankure e'inahu mofavremo'a arera rimpafima fritegeno kasentegeno, frino amnezankna higeno hanizamo refitegeno agi'a nomane.
for it comes in vanity, and departs in 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.
Moreover it has not seen the sun nor known it. This has 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.
Yes, though he live a thousand years twice told, and yet fails to enjoy good, don’t 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 the appetite is not filled.
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 has the wise more than the fool? What has the poor man, that knows 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 a chasing 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.
Whatever has been, its name was given long ago; and it is known what man is; neither can he 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?
For there are many words that create vanity. What does that profit man?
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 knows what is good for man in life, all the days of his vain life which he spends like a shadow? For who can tell a man what will be after him under the sun?
