< Hékmet toplighuchi 6 >
1 Quyash astida bir yaman ishni kördum; u ish ademler arisida köp körülidu —
There is an evil which I have seen under the sun, and it [is] common among men:
2 Xuda birsige bayliqlar, mal-dunya we izzet-hörmet teqsim qildi, shuning bilen uning öz köngli xalighinidin héchnersisi kem bolmidi; biraq Xuda uninggha bulardin huzur élishqa muyesser qilmidi, belki yat bir adem ulardin huzur alidu; mana bu bimenilik we éghir azabtur.
A man to whom God hath given riches, wealth, and honor, so that he wanteth nothing for his soul of all that he desireth, yet God giveth him not power to eat of it, but a stranger eateth it: this [is] vanity, and it [is] an evil disease.
3 Birsi yüz bala körüp köp yil yashishi mumkin; biraq uning yil-künliri shunchilik köp bolsimu, uning jéni bextni körmise, hetta görni körmigen bolsimu, tughulup chachrap ketken bowaq uningdin ewzeldur deymen.
If a man begetteth a hundred [children], and liveth many years, so that the days of his years are many, and his soul is not filled with good, and also [that] he hath no burial; I say, [that] an untimely birth [is] better than he.
4 Chünki chachrighan bala bimenilik bilen kélidu, qarangghuluqta kétidu, qarangghuluq uning ismini qaplaydu;
For he cometh with vanity, and departeth in darkness, and his name shall be covered with darkness.
5 U künnimu körmigen, bilmigen; biraq héch bolmighanda u birinchisige nisbeten aram tapqandur.
Moreover he hath not seen the sun, nor known [any thing]: this hath more rest than the other.
6 Berheq, héliqi kishi hetta ikki hesse ming yil yashighan bolsimu, biraq bextni körmise, ehwali oxshashtur — herbir kishi oxshash bir jaygha baridu emesmu?
Yes, though he liveth a thousand years twice [told], yet hath he seen no good: do not all go to one place?
7 Ademning tartqan barliq japasi öz aghzi üchündur; biraq uning ishtihasi hergiz qanmaydu.
All the labor of man [is] for his mouth, and yet the appetite is not filled.
8 Shundaqta dana kishining exmeqtin néme artuqchiliqi bolsun? Namrat kishi bashqilar aldida qandaq méngishni bilgen bolsimu, uning néme paydisi bolsun?
For what hath the wise more than the fool? what hath the poor, that knoweth to walk before the living?
9 Közning körüshi arzu-hewesning uyan-buyan yürüshidin ewzeldur. Bundaq qilishmu bimenilik we shamalni qoghlighandek ishtur.
Better [is] the sight of the eyes than the wandering of the desire: this [is] also vanity and vexation of spirit.
10 Ötüp ketken ishlarning bolsa alliqachan nami békitilip atalghan; insanning néme ikenlikimu ayan bolghan; shunga insanning özidin qudretlik bolghuchi bilen qarshilishishigha bolmaydu.
That which hath been is named already, and it is known that it [is] man: neither may he contend with him that is mightier than he.
11 Chünki gep qanche köp bolsa, bimenilik shunche köp bolidu; buning insan’gha néme paydisi?
Seeing there are many things that increase vanity, what [is] man the better?
12 Chünki insanning ömride, yeni uning sayidek tézla ötidighan menisiz ömridiki barliq künliride uninggha némining paydiliq ikenlikini kim bilsun? Chünki insan’gha u ketkendin kéyin quyash astida néme ishning bolidighanliqini kim dep bérelisun?
For who knoweth what [is] good for man in [this] life, all the days of his vain life which he spendeth as a shadow? for who can tell a man what shall be after him under the sun?
