1 Tupa mkate wako juu ya maji, kwa maana baada ya siku nyingi utaupata tena.
Sende thi breed on watris passynge forth, for aftir many tymes thou schalt fynde it.
2 Wape sehemu watu saba, naam hata wanane, kwa maana hujui ni baa gani litakalokuwa juu ya nchi.
Yyue thou partis seuene, and also eiyte; for thou woost not, what yuel schal come on erthe.
3 Kama mawingu yamejaa maji, hunyesha mvua juu ya nchi. Kama mti ukianguka kuelekea kusini au kuelekea kaskazini, mahali ulipoangukia, hapo ndipo utakapolala.
If cloudis ben filled, tho schulen schede out reyn on the erthe; if a tre fallith doun to the south, ether to the north, in what euer place it fallith doun, there it schal be.
4 Yeyote atazamaye upepo hatapanda, yeyote aangaliaye mawingu hatavuna.
He that aspieth the wynd, sowith not; and he that biholdith the cloudis, schal neuere repe.
5 Kama vile usivyofahamu njia ya upepo, au jinsi mwili uumbwavyo ndani ya tumbo la mama, vivyo hivyo huwezi kufahamu kazi ya Mungu, Muumba wa vitu vyote.
As thou knowist not, which is the weye of the spirit, and bi what resoun boonys ben ioyned togidere in the wombe of a womman with childe, so thou knowist not the werkis of God, which is makere of alle thingis.
6 Panda mbegu yako asubuhi, nako jioni usiruhusu mikono yako ilegee, kwa maana hujui ni ipi itakayofanikiwa, kwamba ni hii au ni ile, au kwamba zote zitafanikiwa sawasawa.
Eerli sowe thi seed, and thin hond ceesse not in the euentid; for thou woost not, what schal come forth more, this ethir that; and if euer eithir cometh forth togidere, it schal be the betere.
7 Nuru ni tamu, tena inafurahisha macho kuona jua.
The liyt is sweet, and delitable to the iyen to se the sunne.
8 Hata kama mtu ataishi miaka mingi kiasi gani, na aifurahie yote. Lakini na akumbuke siku za giza, kwa maana zitakuwa nyingi. Kila kitu kitakachokuja ni ubatili.
If a man lyueth many yeeris, and is glad in alle these, he owith to haue mynde of derk tyme, and of many daies; and whanne tho schulen come, thingis passid schulen be repreued of vanyte.
9 Furahi ewe kijana, wakati ungali kijana, moyo wako na ukupe furaha katika siku za ujana wako. Fuata njia za moyo wako na chochote macho yako yaonayo, lakini ujue kwamba kwa ajili ya haya yote Mungu atakuleta hukumuni.
Therfor, thou yonge man, be glad in thi yongthe, and thin herte be in good in the daies of thi yongthe, and go thou in the weies of thin herte, and in the biholdyng of thin iyen; and wite thou, that for alle these thingis God shal brynge thee in to doom.
10 Kwa hiyo basi, ondoa wasiwasi moyoni mwako na utupilie mbali masumbufu ya mwili wako, kwa kuwa ujana na nguvu ni ubatili.
Do thou awei ire fro thin herte, and remoue thou malice fro thi fleisch; for whi yongthe and lust ben veyne thingis.
