1 परमेश्‍वरको भवनमा जाँदा आफ्ना कदमहरूको रखवाली गर् । मूर्खहरूको बलिदान चढाउनुभन्दा सुन्‍नलाई नजिक जा, किनकि के गल्ती गर्दै छन् भनी तिनीहरू बुझ्दैनन् ।
Guard (foot your *Q(K)*) when you will go to [the] house of God and draw near to listen more than giving the fools a sacrifice for not they [are] knowing to do evil.
2 बोल्नमा हतार नगर्, र परमेश्‍वरको सामु आफ्नो विषय लैजान तेरो हृदयमा आतुरी नगर् । परमेश्‍वर स्वर्गमा हुनुहुन्छ, तर तँ पृथ्वीमा छस् । त्यसैले तेरा वचनहरू थोरै होऊन् ।
May not you be hasty on mouth your and heart your may not it hasten to bring forth a matter before God for God [is] in the heavens and you [are] on the earth there-fore let them be words your few.
3 तैँले गर्नुपर्ने र चिन्ता लिनुपर्ने धेरै कुराहरू छन् भने तैँले सम्भवतः खराब सपना देख्‍ने छस् । तैँले जति धेरै बोल्छस्, सम्भवतः त्यति नै धेरै मूर्ख कुराहरू ओकल्छस् ।
For it comes the dream with abundance of business and [the] voice a fool with a multitude of words.
4 तैँले परमेश्‍वरमा भाकल गर्दा त्यसलाई पुरा गर्न ढिलो नगर्, किनकि परमेश्‍वर मूर्खहरूसित रमाउनुहुन्‍न । तैँले जे गर्छु भनेर भाकल गरेको छस्, त्यो गरिहाल् ।
When you will vow a vow to God may not you delay to pay it for there not [is] pleasure in fools [that] which you will vow pay.
5 भाकल गरेर पुरा नगर्नु भन्दा भाकलै नगरेको उत्तम हुन्छ ।
[is] good That not you will vow (more than what you will vow *L(abh)*) and not you will pay.
6 तेरो शरीरलाई पाप गर्न तेरो मुखलाई अनुमति नदे । पुजारीको सन्देशवाहकलाई यसो नभन्, “त्यो भाकल भुल थियो ।” झुटो पाराले भाकल गरी परमेश्‍वरलाई किन रिस उठाउने? तेरा हातको कामलाई नष्‍ट पार्न परमेश्‍वरलाई किन चिढ्याउने?
May not you permit mouth your to cause to sin flesh your and may not you say before the messenger that [was] inadvertence it why? will he be angry God towards voice your and he will destroy [the] work of hands your.
7 किनकि धेरै शब्दहरूमा जस्तै धेरै कल्पनामा अर्थहीन बाफ हुन्छ । त्यसैले परमेश्‍वरको भय मान् ।
For in abundance of dreams and futilities and words many for God fear.
8 जब तैँले तेरो प्रान्तमा गरिबहरूलाई थिचोमिचो गरिएको र तिनीहरूबाट न्याय र असल व्यवहार खोसिएको देख्छस्, तब कसैलाई थाहै नभएजस्तै गरी चकित नहो, किनकि तिनीहरूको रेखदेख गर्ने मानिसहरू शक्तिमा छन्, र तिनीहरूभन्दा अझै उच्‍च पदमा रहेर तिनीहरूको रेखदेख गर्ने मानिसहरू पनि हुन्छन् ।
If oppression of a poor person and robbery of justice and righteousness you will see in the province do not be astonished on the matter for a high [one] over a high [one] [is] watching and high [ones] over them.
9 यस बाहेक, खेतबारीको उब्जनी हरेकको लागि हो, र राजा स्वयम्‌ले पनि खेतबारीबाट उब्जनी बटुल्छन् ।
And [the] profit of a land [is] in everything (it *Q(K)*) a king to a field he has been served.
10 चाँदीलाई प्रेम गर्ने चाँदीबाट सन्तुष्‍ट हुने छैन, र धन-सम्पत्तिलाई प्रेम गर्नेले सधैँ यसको बढी चाह गर्छ । यो पनि बाफ हो ।
[one who] loves Silver not he will be satisfied silver and whoever [is] loving wealth not income also this [is] futility.
11 जब समृद्धि बढ्छ, तब यसलाई खाने मुख पनि बढ्छ । मालिकले आफ्ना आँखाले धन-सम्पत्तिलाई हेर्नुभन्दा बाहेक उसलाई केचाहिँ बढी लाभ हुन्छ र?
When increases the good they increase [those who] consume it and what? profit [belongs] to owner its that except ([the] sight of *Q(K)*) eyes his.
12 धेरै खाए पनि थोरै खाए पनि काम गर्ने मानिसको निद्रा मिठो हुन्छ, तर धनी मानिसको धन-सम्पत्तिले त्यसलाई राम्ररी सुत्‍न दिँदैन ।
[is] sweet [the] sleep of The laborer whether a little and or [surely] much he will eat and the plenty of the rich [person] not it [is] permitting him to sleep.
13 सूर्यमूनि मैले एउटा खराबी देखेको छुः मालिकले आफ्नै दुर्दशाको निम्ति धन-सम्पत्ति थुपार्छ ।
There [is] an evil severe [which] I have seen under the sun wealth [was] being kept by owner its to harm his.
14 जब धनी मानिसले दुर्भाग्यबाट आफ्नो धन-सम्पत्ति गुमाउँछ, तब त्यसले पालन-पोषण गरेको त्यसको आफ्नै छोरोको हातमा केही पनि हुँदैन ।
And it was lost the wealth that in a business of evil and he fathered a son and not [was] in hand his anything.
15 मानिस आफ्नी आमाको कोखबाट नाङ्गै आएजस्तै त्यो पनि नाङ्गै छाडिने छ । त्यसले आफ्नो हातमा आफ्नो परिश्रमको कुनै फल लैजान सक्दैन ।
Just as he came out from [the] womb of mother his naked he will return to go when he came and anything not he will carry in toil his that he may take in hand his.
16 अर्कोचाहिँ खराबी यही हो, कि मानिस जसरी आउँछ, त्यसरी नै फर्केर जान्छ । त्यसैले बतासको लागि काम गर्ने मानिसलाई केचाहिँ लाभ छ र?
And also this [is] an evil severe like exactly as [that] which came so he will go and what? [is the] profit [belongs] to him that he will toil for the wind.
17 आफ्नो जीवनकालमा त्यसले नैराश्यमा खान्छ, अनि रोग र रिसबाट ज्यादै निराश हुन्छ ।
Also all days his in darkness he eats and he is vexed greatly and sickness his and anger.
18 परमेश्‍वरले हामीलाई दिनुभएको यस जीवनकालमा सूर्यमूनि हामीले परिश्रम गर्दा हाम्रा सारा कामबाट प्राप्‍त कुराहरूको आनन्द मनाउनु, खानु र पिउनु नै ठिक र उचित हो भनी मैले देखेको छु । किनकि यो नै मानिसको जिम्मेवारी हो ।
Here! [that] which I have seen I [to be] good [that] which [is] beautiful [is] to eat and to drink and to see good in all toil his - that someone will toil under the sun [the] number of [the] days of (life his *Q(k)*) which he has given to him God for that [is] portion his.
19 जसलाई परमेश्‍वरले धन-सम्पत्ति र जग्गा-जमिन, अनि त्यसको काममा त्यसको हिस्सा प्राप्‍त गर्ने र आनन्द मनाउने खुबी दिनुभएको छ, त्योचाहिँ परमेश्‍वरको वरदान हो ।
Also every person whom he has given to him God wealth and riches and he has given power him to eat from it and to receive portion his and to rejoice in toil his this [is] a gift of God it.
20 किनकि त्यसले आफ्नो जीवनका दिनहरूको प्रायः स्मरण गर्दैन, किनकि परमेश्‍वरले त्यसलाई यस्ता कुराहरूमा व्यस्त पारिदिनुहुन्छ जसमा त्यो काम गर्नमा रमाउँछ ।
For not [surely] much he will remember [the] days of life his for God [is] keeping busy with [the] joy of heart his.
