Ikrisiasatis 8
1 Iza knare antahi'zane vahera mani'neno, maka zamofo agafa'ama eri ama'ma hu'zana antahine? Knare antahizamo'a vahe'mofo avugosafi remsa higeno, avugosamo'a rumsa huno nevie.
Who is like the wise man? and to whom is the sense of anything clear? A man's wisdom makes his face shining, and his hard face will be changed.
2 Kini ne'mofo ke antahinka amage anto hu'na nagra negasamue. Na'ankure kagra ko Anumzamofo avuga ke'a amage antegahue hunka huvempa hu'nane.
I say to you, Keep the king's law, from respect for the oath of God.
3 Ame'amara hunka kini ne'mofo avugatira eri'zanka'a atrenka vunka kini ne'mofoma ha'ma renentaza vahe'enena kea ome hu hageorafio. Na'ankure kini ne'mo'a nazano agri'ma avesinia zana amane hugahie.
Be not quick to go from before him. Be not fixed in an evil design, because he does whatever is pleasing to him.
4 Kini ne'mofo kemo'a, hihamu'a me'ne. Mago vahe'mo'a agenoka huno, na'a nehane hunora osugahie.
The word of a king has authority; and who may say to him, What is this you are doing?
5 Hiankino kini ne'mofo kema amage'ma antea vahe'mo'a, knazana e'origahie. Knare antahi'zane vahe'mo'a maka zama hania knane, maka'zama eri fore'ma hania kna fatgoa keno antahino hugahie.
Whoever keeps the law will come to no evil: and a wise man's heart has knowledge of time and of decision.
6 Na'ankure vahe'mofona hazenke zama'amo'a marerigahianagi, maka zamofona kna'a metere higeno kankamuma'a metere hu'ne.
For every purpose there is a time and a decision, because the sorrow of man is great in him.
7 Tamagerfa huno okima fore'ma hania zana, mago vahe'mo'a keno antahinora osu'neankino, okima fore'ma hania zamofona, iza huamara huno tasamigahie?
No one is certain what is to be, and who is able to say to him when it will be?
8 Mago vahe'mofona hihamu'a omane'neankino, fri'zama nehanigeno asimu'amo'ma atre'zama nehanigeno'a aze'origahie. Anahu kna huno fri'zana mago vahe'mo'a aze'origahie. Ha'ma hu knafima sondia vahe'ma hunonteankna huno, kefo avu'ava zamo'a magore huno kefo avu'ava'ma nehia vahera atresigeno ovugahie.
No man has authority over the wind, to keep the wind; or is ruler over the day of his death. In war no man's time is free, and evil will not keep the sinner safe.
9 Maka zama ama mopafima fore'ma nehia zanku'ma antahintahima hufintira, mago zama kena eri fore'ma huana, vahe'mo'ma vahe'ma azeri haviza hu'zanke me'nege'na ke'noe.
All this have I seen, and have given my heart to all the work which is done under the sun: there is a time when man has power over man for his destruction.
10 Kefo avu'ava'ma nehia vahe'ma frige'za, antahimi'za knare'za hu'za asezamantazage'na zamage'noe. Ana'ma hu'za asentete'za, ete ana ne'mo'ma hazenkema eri hakarema nehia rankumapima ne-eza, ana ne'mofo agia ahentesga nehaze. E'inahu avu'ava zamo'a agafa'a omane'ne.
And then I saw evil men put to rest, taken even from the holy place; and they went about and were praised in the town because of what they had done. This again is to no purpose.
11 Hagi hazenkema nehaza vahe'ma keagazmima ame hu'zama refko'ma hu'za knama nozamizage'za, zamagrama zamagesama antahi'zana hazenkema hu'zana knare'za nehune nehu'za huvava huza nevaze.
Because punishment for an evil work comes not quickly, the minds of the sons of men are fully given to doing evil.
12 Hianagi kefo avu'ava'ma nehaza vahe'mo'zama 100'a zupama hazenkema nehu'za za'za knama mani'za nevazage'na, nagrama antahi'na ke'nama huana Anumzamofoma koro'ma hunte'za agoraga'ama nemani'za vahe'mo'za zamagatere'za knare zantfa hu'za manigahaze.
Though a sinner does evil a hundred times and his life is long, I am certain that it will be well for those who go in fear of God and are in fear before him.
13 Hagi kefo avu'ava'ma nehaza vahe'mo'zama maka zama hanaza zamo'a, knarera huno hageno mareorigahie. Na'ankure Anumzamofona korora hunontazanki'za, knama mani'zama vanaza knamo'a kinaga zagemo'ma ufregeno vahe amema'amo'ma fanene nehiankna hu'za fanene hugahaze.
But it will not be well for the evil-doer; he will not make his days long like a shade, because he has no fear before God.
14 Hagi agafa'a omne zama mago'ma ama mopafima eri fore'ma nehiana, knare vahetmina kefo avu'ava'ma nehaza vahe'ma huzmantaza kna avu'ava hunezmante'za, kefo avu'ava'ma nehaza vahera knare vahetmima huzmantaza kna avu'ava hunezmantaze. E'inahu avu'ava zamo'enena agafa'a omne'ne.
There is a thing which is to no purpose done on the earth: that there are good men to whom is given the same punishment as those who are evil, and there are evil men who get the reward of the good. I say that this again is to no purpose.
15 E'ina hu'negu ama mopafina magora knare zana omne'neanki, ne'zane tinema neneno musema huno'ma mani nomani'zamoke knarera hu'ne. E'ina'ma hanu'za Anumzamo'ma eri'zama zamige'za ama mopafima amuhoma hu'za eri fore'ma nehaza zantami nene'za musena hugahaze.
So I gave praise to joy, because there is nothing better for a man to do under the sun than to take meat and drink and be happy; for that will be with him in his work all the days of his life which God gives him under the sun.
16 Hagi knare antahi'za erisue nehu'na, ama mopafi vahe'mo'zama knazama e'neriza zama koana, vahe'mofona avumase zana omane'neanki, feru'ene kenage'enena vahe'mo'a eri'zana eri vava nehige'na ke'noe.
When I gave my mind to the knowledge of wisdom and to seeing the business which is done on the earth (and there are those whose eyes see not sleep by day or by night),
17 Anama hige'na nagrama ke'na antahi'nama huana, maka zama ama mopafima Anumzamo'ma tro nehia zana, mago vahe'mo'a keno antahinora osugahie. Knare antahi'zane vahe'mo'enena nagra knare hu'noanki'na, Anumzamo'ma tro'ma nehia zana amne ke'na antahina hugahue huno hugahianagi, ana maka zana keno antahinora osugahie.
Then I saw all the work of God, and that man may not get knowledge of the work which is done under the sun; because, if a man gives hard work to the search he will not get knowledge, and even if the wise man seems to be coming to the end of his search, still he will be without knowledge.
