Omubuulizi 4
1 Ate nalaba okunnyigirizibwa kwonna okukolebwa wansi w’enjuba. Ate laba, amaziga gaabo abanyigirizibwa, era nga tebalina wakugabasangulako! Ababanyigiriza baalina obuyinza, kyokka nga tewali asobola kubagambako.
And I returned I and I saw all the oppression which [were being] done under the sun and there! - [the] tear[s] of the oppressed and not [belonged] to them a comforter and [was] from [the] hand of oppressors their power and there not [belonged] to them a comforter.
2 Ne ndowooza ku abo abaafa, nga baali ba mukisa okusinga abo abakyali abalamu;
And I congratulated I the dead who already they had died more than the living who they [were] alive still.
3 naye abasinga abo, y’oyo atannaba kuzaalibwa, atannalaba bibi obukolebwa wansi w’enjuba.
And [is] good more than both of them [one] who still not he has been [one] who not he has seen the activity evil which it is done under the sun.
4 Awo ne ndaba ng’okutegana, n’okutuukiriza mu bikolebwa, kuva mu kukwatirwa obuggya muliraanwa. Na kino butaliimu na kugoberera mpewo.
And I considered I all [the] toil and all [the] skill of the work that it [is] envy of everyone from neighbor his also this [is] futility and striving of wind.
5 Omusirusiru awumba emikono gye, ne yeezikiriza yekka.
The fool [is] folding hands his and [is] eating own flesh his.
6 Kirungi okuba n’emirembe emijjuvu okusinga okujjula okubonaabona n’okugoberera empewo.
[is] good Fullness of hand of quietness more than [the] fullness of two hands toil and striving of wind.
7 Ate era ne ndaba obutaliimu wansi w’enjuba:
And I returned I and I saw futility under the sun.
8 nalaba omuntu ng’ali bwannamunigina, nga talina mwana wabulenzi wadde muganda we, naye ng’ategana okukamala, nga tamatira na bugagga bwe, ne yeebuuza nti, “Nteganira ani ne neefiiriza essanyu? Kino nakyo butaliimu, era tekiriiko kye kigasa.”
There [was] one [person] and there not [was] a second also a son and a brother not [belonged] to him and there not [was] an end to all toil his also (eye his *Q(K)*) not it was satisfied wealth and for whom? - [am] I a laborer and depriving self my from good also this [is] futility and [is] a task of evil it.
9 Ababiri basinga omu, kubanga bagasibwa nnyo mu kukola kwabwe.
[are] good Two [people] more than one that there for them [is] a reward good for toil their.
10 Kubanga singa omu agwa, munne amuyimusa. Naye zimusanze oyo ali obw’omu, bw’agwa tabaako amuyimusa.
That except they will fall down the one he will raise companion his and woe! to him the one who will fall down and there not [is] a second [person] to raise him.
11 Ababiri bwe bagalamira bombi awamu babuguma; naye oyo ali obw’omu, ayinza atya okubuguma?
Also if they will lie down two [people] and it will be warm to them and to one [person] how? will it be warm.
12 Omu awangulwa mangu, kyokka ababiri bayinza okwerwanako. Kubanga omuguwa ogw’emiyondo esatu tegukutuka mangu.
And though someone will overpower him the one [person] the two [people] they will stand before him and the thread threefold not quickly it will be torn apart.
13 Omuvubuka omwavu nga mugezi, akira kabaka amusinga emyaka nga musirusiru, atafaayo ku kubuulirirwa.
[is] good A youth poor and wise more than a king old and a fool who not he knows to be warned still.
14 Omuvubuka ayinza okuba ng’avudde mu kkomera n’alya obwakabaka, oba okulya obwakabaka ng’abadde mwavu.
For from [the] house of the prisoners he came out to become king for also in own kingdom his he had been born a poor [person].
15 Nalaba abalamu bonna abatambula wansi w’enjuba nga bagoberera omuvubuka oyo ow’okulya obwakabaka.
I saw all the living who are walking about under the sun with the youth second who he will arise in place of him.
16 Abantu be yafuganga baali bangi nnyo. Naye abo abajja oluvannyuma lwe tebaamusiima. Na kino nakyo butaliimu na kugoberera mpewo.
There not [is] an end to all the people to all [those] whom he was before them also the subsequent [people] not they will rejoice in him for also this [is] futility and a striving of wind.
