Mosakoli 9
1 Boye, nakanisaki mingi na makambo oyo nyonso mpe namonaki ete, ezala moto ya sembo, moto ya bwanya elongo na makambo nyonso oyo basalaka, bazali na maboko ya Nzambe; kasi moko te ayebaka soki bolingo to koyina ezelaka ye.
For all this I have given to heart my and to make clear all this that the righteous and the wise and deeds their [are] in [the] hand of God both love as well as hatred not [is] knowing humankind everything [is] before them.
2 Bato nyonso basukaka kaka ndenge moko: ezala moto ya sembo to moto mabe, ezala moto malamu to moto oyo asalaka masumu, ezala moto ya peto to moto ya mbindo, ezala moto oyo abonzaka mbeka to moto oyo abonzaka mbeka te. Ndenge ezalaka mpo na moto ya motema malamu ndenge mpe ezalaka mpo na moto ya masumu; ndenge ezalaka mpo na moto oyo alapaka ndayi ndenge mpe ezalaka mpo na moto oyo abangaka kolapa ndayi.
All [is] just as for all fate one [belongs] to the righteous and to the wicked to the good (and to the evil *X*) and to the clean and to the unclean and to the [one who] sacrifices and to [one] who not he [is] sacrificing as the good [person] as the sinner the [one who] swears an oath just as an oath [one] fearing.
3 Tala likambo oyo ezali mabe kati na makambo nyonso oyo esalemaka na se ya moyi: bato nyonso basukaka kaka ndenge moko; lisusu, mitema ya bato etonda na mabe, mpe bozoba ezalaka kati na mitema na bango wana bazali nanu na bomoi; mpe, sima na yango, bakokufa kaka.
This - [is] an evil in all that it is done under the sun for fate one [belongs] to everyone and also [the] heart of [the] children of humankind [is] full evil and madness [is] in heart their in lives their and after it to the dead.
4 Moto nyonso oyo azali kati na bato ya bomoi azalaka na elikya; mbwa ya bomoi ezali malamu koleka nkosi oyo ekufa.
For who? [is [the] one] who (he is united *Q(K)*) to all the living there [is] hope for to a dog living it [is] good more than the lion dead.
5 Pamba te bato ya bomoi bayebaka ete bakokufa; kasi bato oyo bakufa bayebaka lisusu eloko moko te, bazalaka lisusu te na litomba ya kozwa, mpo ete babosana bango.
For the living [are] knowing that they will die and the dead not they [are] knowing anything and not still [belongs] to them a reward for it is forgotten memory their.
6 Bolingo na bango, koyina na bango mpe baposa na bango esila kolimwa; bakozwa lisusu litomba ata moko te kati na makambo nyonso oyo esalemaka na se ya moyi.
Both love their as well as hatred their as well as envy their already it has perished and a portion not [belongs] to them again for ever in all that it is done under the sun.
7 Kende, lia bilei na yo na esengo mpe mela masanga na yo ya vino na motema ya esengo; pamba te Nzambe asili kondima misala na yo.
Go eat with gladness food your and drink with a heart good wine your for already he has taken pleasure in God deeds your.
8 Tika ete bilamba na yo ezala tango nyonso peto, mpe nzoto na yo elumba tango nyonso solo ya malasi.
At every time let them be clothes your white and oil on head your may not it be lacking.
9 Sepela na bomoi na yo elongo na mwasi na yo, oyo olingaka na mikolo nyonso ya bomoi ya pamba oyo Nzambe apesi yo na se ya moyi; solo, na mikolo na yo nyonso ya pamba, pamba te yango nde ezali mbano ya bomoi na yo mpo na misala nyonso oyo omonelaka pasi na se ya moyi.
See life with a wife whom you love all [the] days of [the] life of futility your which he has given to you under the sun all [the] days of futility your for that [is] portion your in life and in toil your which you [are] a laborer under the sun.
10 Mosala nyonso oyo loboko na yo ekokoka kosala, sala yango na makasi na yo nyonso; pamba te kati na mboka ya bakufi epai wapi okokende, ezala mosala, mabongisi, boyebi to bwanya ezalaka kuna te. (Sheol h7585)
All that it finds hand your to do with strength your do for there not [is] work and explanation and knowledge and wisdom in Sheol where you [are] going there towards. (Sheol h7585)
11 Namonaki lisusu likambo moko na se ya moyi: mimekano ezalaka kaka te mpo na moto oyo aleki mbangu, bitumba ezalaka kaka te mpo na bato ya makasi, bilei ezalaka kaka te mpo na bato ya bwanya, bomengo ezalaka kaka te mpo na bato oyo baleki na mayele, mpe bolamu ezalaka kaka te mpo na bato ya bososoli; pamba te pasi mpe bisengo ekomelaka mpe bango nyonso.
I returned and I saw under the sun that not [belongs] to the swift the race and not [belongs] to the mighty [men] the battle and also not [belongs] to wise [people] food and also not [belongs] to the understanding wealth and also not [belongs] to the knowledgeable favor for time and chance it happens to all of them.
12 Moto moko te ayebi tango nini ngonga na ye ekokoka: ndenge mbisi ekangamaka na monyama to ndenge banyama ekangamaka na motambo, ndenge wana mpe bato bakangamaka na mitambo ya pasi oyo ekweyelaka bango na mbalakata.
For also not he knows humankind time his like fish that [are] caught in a net evil and like birds that are caught in snare like them [are] ensnared [the] children of humankind to a time evil when that falls on them suddenly.
13 Namonaki lisusu na se ya moyi, ndakisa moko ya bwanya oyo ezalaki na tina mingi mpo na ngai:
Also this I have seen wisdom under the sun and [was] great it to me.
14 ezalaki na engumba moko ya moke oyo ezalaki mpe na bato moke; bongo mokonzi moko ya nguya ayaki kobundisa yango, azingelaki yango mpe atongaki milako mpo na kokonza engumba yango.
A city small and men in it [were] few and he came against it a king great and he surrounded it and he built on it siege works great.
15 Nzokande, kati na engumba yango, ezalaki na mobola moko oyo azalaki moto ya bwanya; abikisaki yango na bwanya na ye, kasi moto moko te akanisaki mobola yango.
And someone found in it a man poor wise and he delivered he the city by wisdom his and anyone not he remembered the man poor (that. *L(abh)*)
16 Boye namilobelaki: « Bwanya ezali malamu koleka makasi ya nzoto. » Kasi bwanya ya mobola etiolamaka, mpe bayokaka maloba na ye te.
And I said I [is] good wisdom more than strength and [the] wisdom of the poor [person] [is] despised and words his not they [are] listened to.
17 Bayokaka maloba ya kimia ya moto ya bwanya koleka makelele ya mokonzi ya bazoba.
[the] words of Wise [people] in quietness [are] heard more than [the] cry of a ruler among fools.
18 Bwanya ezali malamu koleka bibundeli ya basoda, kasi mbeba moko ekoki koboma bolamu na yango nyonso.
[is] good Wisdom more than weapons of war and a sinner one he will destroy good much.
