Ecclesiastes 11
1 Oasr soakas se fahk mu, “Pahtkakunla ma nom fin kof u, na tukun len pus kom ac fah sifil konauk.”
Send out your bread on the waters, for you will find it again after many days.
2 Sang kutu ma oasr yurum nu sin mwet itkosr ku oalkosr, mweyen kom koflana etu lah ongoiya fuka ac sikyak nu sum fin faclu.
Share it with seven, even eight people, for you do not know what disasters are coming on the earth.
3 Acn se na ma soko sak ac topla nu we, ac oanna in sac. Pacl se pukunyeng uh sroalsroalla, na ac afi.
If the clouds are full of rain, they empty themselves on the earth, and if a tree falls toward the south or toward the north, wherever the tree falls, there it will remain.
4 El su tuni yen eng uh tuku we me pa ac etu pacl tia fal in yok; ac el su tuni pukunyeng uh pa ac etu pacl tia fal in kosrani.
Anyone who watches the wind might not plant, and anyone who watches the clouds might not harvest.
5 God El orala ma nukewa, ac kom tia ku in kalem ke ma El oru, oana ke kom tia ku in kalem ke mutaweyen moul lun sie tulik insien sie mutan pitutu.
As you do not know the path of the wind, nor how a baby's bones grow in the pregnant womb, so also you cannot comprehend the work of God, who created everything.
6 Oru yok lom an ke lotutang ac oayapa ke eku. Kom tia ku in etu lah nufonna ac kapak wo, ku sie fwil uh ac kapak wo liki ma se ngia.
In the morning plant your seed; until the evening, work with your hands as needed, for you know not which will prosper, whether morning or evening, or this or that, or whether they will both alike be good.
7 Sie mwe insewowo ke kut liye kalem wolana lun len uh.
Truly the light is sweet, and it is a pleasant thing for the eyes to see the sun.
8 Engankin yac nukewa ma kom moul uh. Finne loes moul lom, esam lah misa lom fah loes liki. Ma nukewa ma ac sikyak faclu meet liki kom misa, ma na lusrongten.
If someone lives many years, let him be happy in all of them, but let him think about the coming days of darkness, for they will be many. Everything to come is vanishing vapor.
9 Mwet fusr, kowos in engankin moul in mwet fusr lowos an. Kowos in insewowo ke kowos srakna fusr. Oru ma kowos lungse oru an, ac suk ma kowos liye mu wo uh. Tusruktu esam lah God El ac nununkekowos ke kutena ma kowos oru.
Take joy, young man, in your youth, and let your heart be joyful in the days of your youth. Pursue the good desires of your heart, and whatever is within the sight of your eyes. However, know that God will bring you into judgment for all these things.
10 Finne oasr mwe akasorye kowos ku mwe akngalye kowos, nimet kowos fosrnga, mweyen pacl in fusr lowos ac mutaweyen moul lowos uh ma lusrongten.
Drive anger away from your heart, and ignore any pain in your body, because youth and its strength are vapor.
