Ecclesiastes 2
1 Nga sulela ngan suk mwe akpwaryeyu tuh ngan ku in etu kalmen engan. Tusruktu nga konauk lah ma se inge wangin pac sripa.
Naʻa ku pehē ki hoku loto, “Vakai eni, teu ʻahiʻahiʻi koe ki he fiengutuhua, ko ia ke ke fiefia koe ʻi he fakavā;” pea vakai, ko e vaʻinga foki eni.
2 Nga konauk lah israsr uh ma lusrongten, ac mwe akpwar uh wangin pac sripa.
Naʻaku pehē ki he kata, “Ko e faha ia”: pea ki he fiengutuhua, “ʻOku ʻaonga ia ki he hā?”
3 Ke nga suk in akyokye lalmwetmet luk, nga sulela in akpwarye ikok ke wain, ngan sifacna pulakin lah mea lalfon. Nga tuh nunku mu ouiya se inge pa wo mwet uh in oru ke moul fototo lalos fin faclu.
Naʻaku fai ʻi hoku loto ke u faʻa inu uaine, kae kumi foki hoku loto ki he poto; pea ke puke atu ki he vale, koeʻuhi ke u ʻilo pe ko e hā ʻoku lelei ke fai ʻe he fānau ʻae tangata ʻi he ʻaho kotoa pē ʻo ʻenau moʻui ʻi he lalo langi.
4 Orekma na yohk nga orala tari. Nga musaela lohm puspis nu sik, ac yukwiya ima in grape sunuk.
Naʻaku fai ʻae ngaahi ngāue lahi; naʻaku langa hoku ngaahi fale; pea naʻaku tō ʻeku ngaahi ngoue vaine:
5 Nga yukwiya ima mwe intoe, oayapa ima in sak nukewa ma ku in mongo fahko kac.
Naʻaku tō ʻeku ngaahi ngoue mo e ngaahi ʻakau ʻoku fua, pea naʻaku tō ʻi ai ʻae faʻahinga ʻakau fua kehekehe kotoa pē.
6 Nga pukanak lulu in kof in akoyohuye ima uh.
Naʻaku ngaohi ʻae ngaahi anovai, ke fakatafe ki he potu ʻoku tupu ʻi ai ʻae ngaahi ʻakau:
7 Nga moli mwet kohs puspis, mukul ac mutan, ac tulik natulos ma isusla inkul sik uh ma pac luk. Pisen cow ac sheep nutik pus liki kutena mwet saya su muta Jerusalem oemeet me.
Naʻaku maʻu ʻae kau tamaioʻeiki mo e kau kaunanga, pea naʻe fanauʻi ʻae kau tamaioʻeiki ʻi hoku fale; pea naʻaku maʻu foki ʻo lahi ʻae fanga manu iiki, mo ia ʻoku lalahi, pea naʻe lahi hake ʻa ʻeku maʻumeʻa ʻiate kinautolu kotoa pē naʻe ʻi muʻa ʻiate au ʻi Selūsalema.
8 Tokosra lun mutunfacl nga leumi uh elos use silver ac gold ac ma saok puspis nu in nien fil ma saok luk. Mukul ac mutan elos on in akpwaryeyu, ac oasr mutan kulansap puspis kiuk fal nu ke lungse luk.
Pea naʻaku tānaki foki kiate au ʻae siliva mo e koula, pea mo e koloa mahuʻinga lahi ʻoe ngaahi tuʻi mo e potu fonua kehekehe: pea u maʻu ʻae kau tangata faiva mo e kau fefine faiva, mo e meʻa fakafiefia kotoa pē ʻoe fānau ʻae tangata, mo e ngaahi meʻa faiva ʻi honau faʻahinga kehekehe.
9 Pwaye, nga fulat ac pwengpeng liki kutena mwet su muta Jerusalem emeet me, ac lalmwetmet luk kolyu pacl nukewa.
Ko ia naʻaku hoko ko e lahi au, pea u tupu ʻo lahi hake ʻiate kinautolu kotoa pē naʻe ʻi muʻa ʻiate au ʻi Selūsalema: pea naʻe maʻu pe foki ʻa ʻeku poto ʻiate au.
10 Kutena ma su nga lungse, nga eis. Nga tia sifacna ikolyuwi nu ke kutena mwe pwar. Nga konkin ke ma nukewa nga orala, ac insewowo luk kac uh pa molo nu sik.
Pea ko e meʻa kotoa pē naʻe manako ki ai hoku mata naʻe ʻikai te u taʻofi ia mei ai, naʻe ʻikai te u taʻofi hoku loto mei ha fiefia; he naʻe fiefia hoku loto ʻi heʻeku ngāue kotoa pē: pea ko hoku ʻinasi ia ʻi heʻeku ngāue kotoa pē.
11 Na nga nunku ke ma nukewa nga orala, ac ke lupan kemkatu luk in orala, ac nga akilen lah wanginna sripa — ma nukewa ma lusrongten, oana ukweyen eng uh.
Pea naʻaku toki mamata ki he ngāue kotoa pē kuo fai ʻe hoku nima, mo e ngāue naʻaku ongosia ʻi hono fai: pea vakai, ko e vaʻinga ia kotoa pē mo e fakamamahi ki he laumālie, pea ʻoku ʻikai hano ʻaonga ʻi he lalo laʻā.
12 Pwayeiya uh, sie tokosra el ac oru na ma tokosra meet lukel ah oru. Ouinge nga mutawauk nunku lah mea kalmac tuh sie mwet in lalmwetmet, ku in sununta, ku in lalfon.
Pea naʻaku tafoki au ke mamata ki he poto, mo e hē, mo e vale: he ko e hā ha meʻa ʻe faʻa fai ʻe he tangata ʻoku muimui ki he tuʻi? ʻAia pe kuo ʻosi hono fai.
13 Na inge nga etu lah, “Lalmwetmet wo liki na lalfon, oana ke kalem uh wo liki lohsr.
“Pea naʻaku toki mamata ʻoku lelei lahi hake ʻae poto ʻi he vale, ʻo hangē ko e lelei hake ʻoe maama ki he poʻuli.
14 Mwet lalmwetmet elos ku in liye acn elos fahsr nu we, a mwet lalfon uh tia ku.” Tusruktu nga etu pac lah ouiya sefanna pa soanekut kewa.
Ko e mata ʻoe poto ʻoku ʻi hono ʻulu ka ʻoku ʻeveʻeva ʻae vale ʻi he poʻuli:” pea naʻaku mamata ʻeau ko e meʻa pe taha ʻoku hoko kiate kinautolu kotoa pē.
15 Nga sifacna nunku, “Ma ac sikyak nu sin mwet lalfon uh ac sikyak pacna nu sik. Ouinge mwe mea ngan lalmwetmet?” Na nga sifacna topuk, “Wangi — nwanginna pwaye sripa.”
Pea naʻaku toki pehē ai ʻi hoku loto, “Hangē ko ia ʻoku hoko ki he vale, ko ia foki ʻoku hoko kiate au; pea ko e hā ia kuo u poto lahi hake ai?” Pea naʻaku toki pehē ʻi hoku loto, “Tā ko e vaʻinga foki eni.”
16 Wangin mwet esam mwet lalmwetmet uh, ac wangin mwet esam mwet lalfon. In len fahsru uh, kut nukewa ac fah mulkinyukla. Kut nukewa ac fah misa, mwet lalmwetmet ac mwet lalfon oana sie.
He ʻoku ʻikai lahi hake ʻae fakamanatu ki he poto ʻi he manatu ki he vale ʻo taʻengata: koeʻuhi ko e meʻa ʻoku ai ni ʻe ngalo ia ʻi he ʻaho kimui. Pea ʻoku fēfē ʻae mate ʻae poto? ʻOku hangē pe ia ko e vale.
17 Ke ma inge wanginna kalmen moul nu sik, mweyen wanginna ma nga eis kac sayen mwe lokoalok mukena. Ma nukewa ma lusrongten. Oana ngan ukwe na eng uh.
Ko ia naʻaku fehiʻa ki he moʻui; koeʻuhi ko e ngāue ʻoku fai ʻi he lalo laʻā ʻoku fakamamahi kiate au: he ko e vaʻinga ʻae meʻa kotoa pē mo e fakamamahi ki he laumālie.
18 Orekma nukewa ma nga orala wanginna kalmeya nu sik, mweyen nga etu lah ac ma na lun mwet se ma aolyula,
ʻIo, naʻaku fehiʻa ki heʻeku ngāue kotoa pē naʻaku ongosia ai ʻi he lalo laʻā: koeʻuhi te u tuku pe ia ki he tangata ʻoku muimui ʻiate au.
19 na el ac ku in lalmwetmet, ku el ac ku in lalfon, su etu? Tusruktu el pa ac la ma nukewa ma nga kemkatu kac — ma nukewa ma lalmwetmet luk uh ase nu sik fin faclu. Ma inge nukewa ma lusrongten.
Pea ko hai ʻoku ne ʻilo pe ko ha poto ia pe ko ha vale? Ka ʻe pule ʻe ia ki he ngāue kotoa pē kuo u ngāue ai mo fakahā ʻaki ʻa ʻeku poto ʻi he lalo laʻā. Ko e vaʻinga foki eni.
20 Ouinge nga auli lah nga arulana kemkatu kac.
Ko ia naʻaku ʻalu fano ai ke fakataʻeʻamanaki hoku loto ki heʻeku ngāue kotoa pē naʻaku fai ʻi he lalo laʻā.
21 Kom orekmakin lalmwetmet, etauk, ac pisrla lom nufon in orala sie ma, na kom ac filiya nu sin sie su tia wi orekma kac. Wanginna sripa, ac tia pac suwohs!
He ʻoku ai ʻae tangata ʻoku fai ʻene ngāue ʻi he poto, mo e ʻilo, pea mo e totonu; ka te ne tuku pe ia ko e ʻinasi ʻo ha tangata ʻoku ʻikai ngāue ki ai. Ko e vaʻinga foki eni, pea ko e kovi lahi.
22 Kom orekma ac fosrnga ke lusen moul lom nufon, ac mea nu sum kac?
He ʻoku maʻu ʻae hā ʻe he tangata mei heʻene ngāue, mo e mamahi ʻa hono loto, ʻaia kuo ne ongosia ai ʻi he lalo laʻā?
23 Ke lusen na moul lom, ma nukewa kom oru use na inse fosrnga ac inse toasr. Finne ke fong, nunak lom koflana mongla ke nunkeya. Ma inge nukewa ma lusrongten.
He ko hono ngaahi ʻaho kotoa pē ko e mamahi ia, pea ko ʻene feinga ko e fakamāfasia; ʻio, naʻa mo e pō ʻoku ʻikai fakafiemālie hono loto. Ko e vaʻinga foki eni.
24 Ma se wo emeet mwet se in oru pa elan mongo ac nim ac insewowokin ma el kosrani. Ac nga akilen lah finne ma inge, ma tuku sin God me.
ʻOku ʻikai ha meʻa ʻoku lelei hake ki he tangata ka ko ʻene kai mo inu, pea ke fakafiefiaʻi hono loto ʻi he lelei ʻo ʻene ngāue. Naʻaku mamata foki ki he meʻa ni, kuo foaki mai ia mei he nima ʻoe ʻOtua.
25 Su ku in mongo ku insewowokin moul lal God El fin tia sang nu sel?
He ko hai ʻoku faʻa kai, pea ko hai ʻoku fakatoʻotoʻo lahi hake ki ai ʻiate au?
26 God El sang lalmwetmet, etauk, ac insewowo nu selos su oru lungse lal, a El oru tuh mwet koluk uh in orekma, kosrani, ac karinganang, tuh ma elos eis in ku in itukyang nu selos su oru ma lungse lal. Ma inge nukewa ma lusrongten. Oana ukweyen eng uh.
He ʻoku foaki ʻe he ʻOtua ki he tangata ʻaia ʻoku lelei ʻi hono ʻao, ko e poto, mo e ʻilo, mo e fiefia: ka ʻoku ne foaki ki he angahala ʻae feinga ke tānaki mo fokotuʻu, ka ne foaki ia kiate ia ʻoku lelei ʻi he ʻao ʻoe ʻOtua. Ko e vaʻinga foki eni mo e fakamamahi ki he laumālie.
