Sams-Zgame 49

1 Nanekema hanuana maka vahe'motma nentahinkeno, ama mopafima mani'naza maka vahe'mo'zanena zamagesa ante'za antahiho!

You people of all ethnic groups, listen! You people all over the world,

2 Marerifa vahe'ma, tami vahe'ma, feno vahe'ma, tamunte omne vahe'motanena antahiho!

important people and unimportant people, rich people and poor people, everyone, [listen to what I am saying],

3 Na'ankure knare antahi'zamofo naneke huama nehugeno, nagu'afina antahi ama' hu antahizamo avite'ne.

[because] what I am thinking is very sensible, and what I say will enable you to become wise!

4 Nagra knare antahi'zamofo nanekegu nagesa ante'na nentahi'na, hapu zavena nehe'na, fraki nanekea zagamepi erinte ama hu'na hugahue.

I think about [MTY] (proverbs/wise sayings), and while I play my harp, I explain what they mean.

5 Hazenke zama ne-enigeno, ha' vahe'mo'zama eme navazagi kagisazana, nahanige'na nagra korora hugahue?

I am not [RHQ] afraid when I am in trouble/danger, when I am surrounded by my enemies,

6 Zamagra fenoma ante'naza zante zamentintia nehu'za, tusi zago fenoma ante'naza zanku zamavufa ra hu'za akagi neraze.

by evil men who trust that [things will always go well for them because] they are wealthy, and who boast about being very rich.

7 Tagra antahi'none, mago vahe'mo'a frizampintira agra'a aguravazige, Anumzamofona atesinteno nefuna ovaregosie.

[They may be rich], but no one can pay money with the result that he would live forever! No one can pay God enough so that God will allow him [to continue] to live,

8 Mago mizantetira vahe'mo'a atesino, agra'a agu'vazigara osu'ne. Na'ankure mago mizantetira mizaseno,

because that cost is too great, and he will never be able to pay enough

9 frino onkasarino, manivava huno ovugosie.

with the result that he will live forever and never [die and] be buried!

10 Negonke'za knare antahi'zane vahe'mo'za nefrizageno, ana hukna hu'za neginagi vahe'ene antahintahi omne vahe'mo'zanena nefrizage'za, ru vahe'mo'za ana vahe'mokizmi fenozana erisanti neharaze.

We see that foolish and stupid people die, but we see that wise people also die; they all leave their wealth, and others inherit it.

11 Ana vahe'mo'za rama'a mopa eri'za zamagia ana mopazmirera asamregahazanagi, matimati'mo'a manivava nonkumazmi senige'za fri'za matipi umanigahaze.

Those wise people once had [houses on] land that they owned, [but now] their graves are their homes forever, the place where they will stay for all time!

12 Hagi fenoma antene'za ra zamagima e'neriza vahe'mofo zamagimo'a zazatera meno ovugahianki, zagagafama fri fananema nehiaza hu'za fri'nageno, zamagimo'a fanane hugahie.

Even if people are great, that cannot prevent them from dying; all people die, the same as animals do.

13 Hagi knare vahe mani'none hu'za neginagi vahe'mo'zama nehaza vahete'ene, ana vahe'mokizmi kere'ma zamentintima nehaza vahete ama anazana fore hugahie.

That is what happens to those who foolishly trust [in what they have accomplished], to those who are delighted in [all] that they possess.

14 Sipisipi afute kva vahe'mo, sipisipi afutami zamavareno viaza huno fri'zamo'a zamavareno fri vahe kumapina vugahie. Hagi nanteramasena Anumzamofo vahe'mo'za kegava huzmantegahaze. Kumazmimofona afete'are matipi zamavufagamo'a kasrigahie. (Sheol h7585)

They are certain to die just like sheep, when a shepherd leads them away to be slaughtered. [PRS, MET] In the morning righteous people will rule over them, and then [those wealthy people will die and] their bodies will quickly decay in their graves; they will be where dead people are, far from their homes. (Sheol h7585)

15 Hianagi nagrira nagu'nevazino, fri'zamofo hihamufintira Anumzamo'a eri varino navaregahie. (Sheol h7585)

But it is certain that God will rescue me so that I am not kept in the place of the dead. (Sheol h7585)

16 Hagi vahe'mo'zama rama'a fenoma ante'za hage'za mareneri'nageno, nonkumazmifima knare zantmimo'ma avimatesia zankura korora osiho.

[So], do not be dismayed when someone becomes rich and the houses where they live become more and more luxurious,

17 Na'ankure zamagrama frisageno'a, maka fenozamimo'a amanezankna hugahiankino, anazana eri'ne'za fri kantega ovugahaze.

because when he dies, he will take nothing with him; his wealth will not go with him.

18 Kasefama huno mani'nea knafina maka zampina knare hu'noe huno agra'a husga nehanigeno, vahe'mo'zanena humuse huntegahaze.

While [a rich person] is alive, he congratulates himself, and people praise him for being successful,

19 Hianagi ko'ma zamagehe'zama hu'nazaza hu'za fri'za nevu'za mago'enena zagemo'ma remsa hania masa onkegahaze.

but he will [die], joining his ancestors, who will never see daylight again.

20 Hagi fenozmigu'ma akagima neraza vahe'mo'za zamagra maka zana antahi anira nosazanki'za, afukra friaza huza frigahaze.

Even if someone is great, that cannot prevent him from dying; he will die, the same as animals do.
