Ecclesiastes 10
1 Loang misa uh ku in oru sufa nufon soko ke mwe akmusra keng in kolukla fohlo, ouinge ouiya na lalfon srisrik se ku in akkolukyela lalmwetmet na lulap.
ʻOku fakanamukū ʻe he lango kuo mate ʻae meʻa namu lelei ʻae tangata faitoʻo: pea ʻoku pehē ʻae vale siʻi ʻo ha taha ʻoku ongoongoa ʻa ʻene poto mo ʻene angatonu.
2 Sie mwet lalmwetmet el pahlana in oru ma suwohs, ac sie mwet lalfon el pahla in oru ma sutuu.
Ko e loto ʻoe tangata poto ʻoku ʻi hono nima toʻomataʻu; ka ʻoku ʻi hono toʻohema ʻae loto ʻoe vale.
3 Lalfon lal uh ac kalem sin mwet nukewa, finne mwetsac ma fufahsryesr inkanek uh elos ac ku pac in akilen.
ʻIo, ko e moʻoni, ʻoka ʻeveʻeva ʻae vale ʻi he hala kuo mole hono loto, pea ʻoku ne tala ki he kakai kotoa pē ko e vale pe ia.
4 Mwet kol lom fin kasrkusrakak sum, nimet kom sisla orekma lom an, mweyen muteng uh ku in akmisye inse toasr na yohk.
Kapau ʻe tuputāmaki ʻae loto ʻoe pule kiate koe, ʻoua naʻa ke hiki mei hoʻo ngāue; he ʻoku fakamolemole ʻae kovi lahi ʻe he tali angavaivai.
5 Pa inge sie ouiya sesuwos nga konauk fin faclu — ouiya se inge ma orek sin mwet kol.
ʻOku ai ʻae kovi kuo u mamata ki ai ʻi he lalo laʻā, ko e fai hala ʻoe pule:
6 Itukyang kunokon fulat nu sin mwet lalfon, a mwet kasrup elos oru orekma pusisel.
Kuo hakeakiʻi ʻae vale ke māʻolunga, pea nofo ʻae koloaʻia ʻi he potu māʻulalo.
7 Nga liye tari ke mwet kohs uh kasrusr fin horse, ac mwet leum elos fahsrna oana mwet kohs uh.
Kuo u mamata ki he heka hoosi ʻae kau tamaioʻeiki, kae ʻeveʻeva ʻi he funga kelekele ʻae fānau ʻae tuʻi ʻo hangē ha kau tamaioʻeiki.
8 Kom fin pukanak sie luf, kom ac ku in putatyang nu loac. Kom fin fokolla sie pot, soko serpent in pot uh ac ku in ngaliskomi.
Ko ia ʻoku keli ʻae luo ʻe tō ia ki ai; pea ko ia ʻoku maumauʻi ʻae ʻā, ʻe uʻu ia ʻe he ngata fekai.
9 Kom fin orekma ke sie acn in pukpuk eot, kom ku na in ngalyak kac. Kom fin lip etong, kom ku in ongoiya kac.
Ko ia ʻoku hiki ʻae ngaahi maka ʻe lavea ai ia; pea ko ia ʻoku tā ʻakau ʻe tuʻutāmaki ai.
10 Tuhla lom ah fin safit ac kom tia tamla, kom ac kemkatu ke orekmakinya. Mwet lalmwetmet uh elos motkwala arulana wo meet, na saflaiya uh wo.
Kapau ʻoku peku ʻae toki, pea ʻikai fakaʻalo, ʻoku totonu ke ne ʻai ʻaki ia ʻae mālohi lahi; ka ʻoku ʻaonga ʻae poto ke fakahinohino.
11 Kom finne etu in akmunaye soko serpent, ac wangin sripa kom fin fuhlela in ngaliskomi meet.
Ko e moʻoni ʻe uʻu ʻae ngata ʻoka ʻikai fakalalata; pea ʻoku tatau mo ia ʻae tangata faʻa lea.
12 Kas lun sie mwet lalmwetmet ac oru mwet uh in akfulatyal, a kas lun sie mwet lalfon sifacna kunausulla.
ʻOku lelei ʻae lea mei he ngutu ʻoe tangata poto; ka ʻe fakaʻauha ʻae vale ʻe hono loungutu ʻoʻona.
13 El mutawauk ke kaskas lusrongten, na saflaiya el arulana kaskas wel.
Ko e kamataʻanga ʻoe lea ʻa hono ngutu ko e vale ia; pea ko e ikuʻanga ʻo ʻene lea ko e pauʻu mo e faha.
14 Sie mwet lalfon el sramsram loeloes. Wangin sie mwet etu lah mea ac sikyak toko, ac wangin sie mwet ku in fahkma lah mea ac sikyak tukun kut misa.
ʻOku fonu foki ʻae vale ʻi he lea: ʻoku ʻikai faʻa fakahā mai ʻe ha tangata ʻae meʻa ʻe hoko; pea ko e meʻa ʻe hoko ʻi he hili ʻa ʻene moʻui ni, ko hai ha taha ʻe faʻa tala ia kiate ia?
15 Sie mwet su sifacna aktotoyella ke orekma upalana lal, el oana mwet lalfon se su nukanla innek nu lohm sel ah.
ʻOku ongosia ʻae vale taki taha kotoa pē ʻi heʻene ngāue, koeʻuhi ʻoku ʻikai te ne ʻilo pe ʻoku fēfē ʻene ʻalu ki he kolo.
16 Tokosra lun sie mutunfacl fin sie mwet fusr, ac mwet kol we fin orek kufwa ke fong fon, facl sac ac fah sun ongoiya.
ʻE fonua, ʻe malaʻia ʻa koe, ʻi he kei tamasiʻi ʻa ho tuʻi, pea keinanga ʻi he kei pongipongi ʻa ho houʻeiki pule!
17 Tusruktu sie tokosra fin ma ke sou leum, ac mwet kol elos mongo in akkeye manolos ac sifacna liyalosyang in tia sruhi, na mutunfacl sac fah insewowo.
ʻE fonua, ʻoku ke monūʻia, ʻo kapau ko ho tuʻi ko e foha ia ʻoe houʻeiki, pea keinanga ho houʻeiki ʻi he feituʻulaʻā totonu, ke nau mālohi kae ʻikai ke konā ai!
18 Mwet se fin alsrangesr in onala fahsu ke lohm sel, na ac wohn, ac lohm sac ac musalla.
Ko e meʻa ʻi he fakapikopiko lahi ʻoku fakaʻaʻau ke motuʻa ʻae fale; pea ʻi he taʻengāue ʻae nima ʻoku tutulu ʻae fale.
19 Mwe mongo uh akenganye mwet uh, ac wain uh akpwaryalos, tusruktu ma inge kewa tia ku in orek fin wangin mani.
ʻOku ngaohi ʻae kātoanga ke tupu ai ʻae kata, pea ʻoku fakafiefia ʻe he uaine; ka ʻoku ʻaonga ʻae paʻanga ki he meʻa kotoa pē.
20 Nimet akkolukye tokosra finne in nunak lom, ac nimet akkolukye mwet kasrup finne infukil in motul sum sifacna. Sie won sohksok ku in tafwela kas inge nu selos.
ʻOua naʻa lea kovi ki he tuʻi, ʻoua ʻaupito naʻa ke mahalo ki ai; pea ʻoua naʻa lea kovi ki he koloaʻia ʻi ho potu mohe: koeʻuhi ʻe fakaongo atu ho leʻo ʻe he manupuna ʻoe ʻatā, pea ʻe tala ʻae meʻa ʻe he manu ʻoku kapakau.
