Hékmet toplighuchi 1
1 Yérusalémda padishah bolghan, Dawutning oghli «Hékmet toplighuchi»ning sözliri: —
The words of Koheleth, the son of David, the king in Jerusalem.
2 «Bimenilik üstige bimenilik!» — deydu «Hékmet toplighuchi» — «Bimenilik üstige bimenilik! Hemme ish bimeniliktur!»
Vanity of vanities, saith Koheleth, vanity of vanities: all is vanity.
3 Quyash astida tartqan japaliridin insan néme paydigha érisher?
What profit hath a man of all his toil which he toil-eth under the sun?
4 Bir dewr ötidu, yene bir dewr kélidu; Biraq yer-zémin menggüge dawam qilidu;
One generation passeth away, and another generation cometh; but the earth endureth for ever.
5 Kün chiqidu, kün patidu; We chiqidighan jaygha qarap yene aldirap mangidu.
The sun also riseth, and the sun goeth down, and striving to reach his place he riseth again there.
6 Shamal jenubqa qarap soqidu; Andin burulup shimalgha qarap soqidu; U aylinip-aylinip, Herdaim öz aylanma yoligha qaytidu.
Going toward the south, and turning round toward the north, the wind moveth round about continually; and around its circles doth the wind return again.
7 Barliq deryalar déngizgha qarap aqidu, biraq déngiz tolmaydu; Deryalar qaysi jaygha aqqan bolsa, Ular yene shu yerge qaytidu.
All the rivers run into the sea; yet the sea is never full: unto the place whither the rivers go, thither will they continue to go.
8 Barliq ishlar japagha tolghandur; Uni éytip tügetküchi adem yoqtur; Köz körüshtin, Qulaq anglashtin hergiz toymaydu.
All things weary themselves [constantly]; man can not utter them: the eye is never satisfied with seeing, nor the ear filled with hearing.
9 Bolghan ishlar yene bolidighan ishlardur; Qilghan ishlar yene qilinidu; Quyash astida héchqandaq yéngiliq yoqtur.
That which hath been, is the same which will be; and that which hath been done, is the same which will be done; and there is nothing new under the sun.
10 «Mana, bu yéngi ish» dégili bolidighan ish barmu? U beribir bizdin burunqi dewrlerde alliqachan bolup ötken ishlardur.
If there be any thing whereof it is said, See, this is new: It hath already been in olden times which were before us.
11 Burunqi ishlar hazir héch eslenmeydu; We kelgüside bolidighan ishlarmu ulardin kéyin yashaydighanlarning ésige héch kelmeydu.
[Only] there is no recollection of former [generations]; and also of the later ones, that are to be—of these [likewise] there will be no recollection with those that will be still later.
12 Menki hékmet toplighuchi Yérusalémda Israilgha padishah bolghanmen;
I Koheleth was king over Israel in Jerusalem.
13 Men danaliq bilen asmanlar astida barliq qilin’ghan ishlarni qétirqinip izdeshke köngül qoydum — Xulasem shuki, Xuda insan balilirining öz-özini bend qilip upritish üchün, ulargha bu éghir japani teqdim qilghan!
And I directed my heart to inquire and to search out by wisdom concerning all that is done under the heavens: this is an evil employment which God hath given to the sons of man to busy themselves therewith.
14 Men quyash astidiki barliq qilin’ghan ishlarni körüp chiqtim, — Mana, hemmisi bimenilik we shamalni qoghlighandek ishtin ibarettur.
I saw all the deeds that are done under the sun: and, behold, all is vanity and a torture of the spirit.
15 Egrini tüz qilghili bolmas; Kemni toluq dep sanighili bolmas.
What is crooked cannot be made straight; and that which is defective cannot be numbered.
16 Men öz könglümde oylinip: «Mana, men ulughlinip, mendin ilgiri Yérusalém üstige barliq höküm sürgenlerdin köp danaliqqa érishtim; méning könglüm nurghun danaliq we bilimge érishti» — dédim.
I spoke with my own heart, saying, Lo, I have truly obtained greater and more wisdom than all those who have been before me over Jerusalem: yea, my heart had seen much wisdom and knowledge.
17 Shuning bilen danaliqni bilishke, shuningdek telwilik we exmiqanilikni bilip yétishke köngül qoydum; mushu ishnimu shamal qoghlighandek ish dep bilip yettim.
And I directed my heart to know wisdom, and to know madness and folly; [but] I have perceived that this also is a torture of the spirit.
18 Chünki danaliqning köp bolushi bilen azab-oqubetmu köp bolidu; bilimini köpeytküchining derd-elimimu köpiydu.
For where there is much wisdom there is much vexation: and he that increaseth knowledge increaseth pain.
