< Mpitoriteny 6 >
1 Misy ratsy efa hitako atỳ ambanin’ ny masoandro, ary mitambesatra amin’ ny olona izany:
Also another yuel is, which Y siy vndur the sunne; and certis it is oft vsid anentis men.
2 dia olona izay omen’ Andriamanitra vola aman-karena sy voninahitra, ka tsy misy tsy ananany na inona na inona iriny, nefa tsy omen’ Andriamanitra fahefana hihinana amin’ izany izy, fa olon-kafa no homana azy; zava-poana sy ratsy mahory koa izany.
A man is, to whom God yaf richessis, and catel, and onour; and no thing failith to his soule of alle thingis which he desirith; and God yyueth not power to hym, that he ete therof, but a straunge man shal deuoure it. This is vanyte, and a greet wretchidnesse.
3 Na dia misy miteraka zaza zato aza sady tratrantitra, ka efa maro ny andro niainany, nefa tsy mba voky soa ny fanahiny, sady tsy mba alevina akory ny fatiny, dia hoy izaho: Ny tsy tonga volana dia tsara kokoa noho izy.
If a man gendrith an hundrid fre sones, and lyueth many yeris, and hath many daies of age, and his soule vsith not the goodis of his catel, and wantith biriyng; Y pronounce of this man, that a deed borun child is betere than he.
4 Fa toa zava-poana no nihavian’ io, ary mandeha ao amin’ ny maizina izy, sady ho voasaron’ ny aizina ny anarany,
For he cometh in veyn, and goith to derknessis; and his name schal be don a wei bi foryetyng.
5 ary koa, tsy nahita na nahalala ny masoandro akory izy, mahita fitsaharana bebe kokoa noho ilay teo izy.
He siy not the sunne, nether knew dyuersyte of good and of yuel;
6 Eny, na dia tratra arivo taona indroa aza izy, nefa tsy nahita soa, tsy ho any amin’ ny fitoerana iray ihany va no alehan’ izy rehetra?
also thouy he lyueth twei thousynde yeeris, and vsith not goodis; whether alle thingis hasten not to o place?
7 Ny fisasarana rehetra ataon’ ny olona dia ho an’ ny vavany ihany, nefa tsy mety afa-po ny faniriany.
Al the trauel of a man is in his mouth, but the soule of hym schal not be fillid with goodis.
8 Fa inona no soa azon’ ny hendry noho ny adala? Inona no azon’ ny malahelo izay mahay mitondra tena eo imason’ ny velona?
What hath a wijs man more than a fool? and what hath a pore man, no but that he go thidur, where is lijf?
9 Ny fahitan’ ny maso dia mahafinaritra noho ny firenirenin’ ny faniriana. Zava-poana sy misambo-drivotra foana koa izany.
It is betere to se that, that thou coueitist, than to desire that, that thou knowist not; but also this is vanyte, and presumpcioun of spirit.
10 Izay efa teo dia voalaza anarana hatry ny fony ela, ary fantatra fa ny olona dia tsy mahazo mifandahatra amin’ izay mahery noho izy.
The name of hym that schal come, is clepid now, and it is knowun, that he is a man, and he mai not stryue in doom ayens a strongere than hym silf.
11 Fa maro ny zavatra mahabe ny zava-poana, koa inona no soa azon’ ny olona?
Wordis ben ful manye, and han myche vanyte in dispuytinge.
12 Fa iza no mahalala izay mahasoa ny olona amin’ izao fiainana izao, dia ny andro vitsy mandalo foana izay laniny toy ny fihelin’ ny aloka? Fa iza no hahalaza amin’ ny olona izay zavatra ho avy any aoriany atỳ ambanin’ ny masoandro?
What nede is it to a man to seke grettere thingis than hym silf; sithen he knowith not, what schal bifalle to hym in his lijf, in the noumbre of daies of his pilgrimage, and in the tyme that passith as schadowe? ether who may schewe to hym, what thing vndur sunne schal come aftir hym?
