There [is] an evil which I have seen under the sun and [is] great it on humankind.
2 Ọlọ́run fún ọkùnrin kan ní ọrọ̀, ọlá àti ọlà kí ó má ba à ṣe aláìní ohunkóhun tí ọkàn rẹ̀ ń fẹ́. Ṣùgbọ́n, Ọlọ́run kò fún un ní àǹfààní láti gbádùn wọn, dípò èyí, àlejò ni ó ń gbádùn wọn. Asán ni èyí, ààrùn búburú gbá à ni.
Anyone whom he gives to him God wealth and riches and honor and not he [is] lacking to appetite his - any of all that he desires and not he gives power him God to eat from it for a man foreign he eats it this [is] futility and [is] an affliction an evil it.
3 Ọkùnrin kan le è ní ọgọ́rùn-ún ọmọ kí ó sì wà láààyè fún ọ̀pọ̀lọpọ̀ ọdún, síbẹ̀ kò sí bí ó ti le wà láààyè pẹ́ tó, bí kò bá le è gbádùn ohun ìní rẹ̀ kí ó sì gba ìsìnkú tí ó tọ́, mo sọ wí pé ọlẹ̀ ọmọ tí a sin sàn jù ú lọ.
If he will father anyone one hundred [children] and years many he will live and [will be] many - [that] which will be [the] days of years his and self his not it will be satisfied from the good and also burial not it belonged to him I say [is] good more than him the miscarriage.
4 Ó wà láìní ìtumọ̀, ó lọ nínú òkùnkùn, nínú òkùnkùn sì ni orúkọ rẹ̀ fi ara pamọ́ sí.
For in futility it came and in darkness it will go and in darkness name its it is covered.
5 Bí ó ti jẹ́ wí pé kò rí oòrùn tàbí mọ ohunkóhun, ó ní ọ̀pọ̀ ìsinmi ju ti ọkùnrin náà lọ.
Also [the] sun not it saw and not it knew rest [belongs] to this one more than this one.
6 Kódà, bí ó wà láààyè fún ẹgbẹ̀rún ọdún méjì yípo ṣùgbọ́n tí ó kùnà láti gbádùn ohun ìní rẹ̀. Kì í ṣe ibìkan ni gbogbo wọn ń lọ?

For what? advantage [belongs] to the wise person more than the fool what? [belongs] to the poor [person] [who] knows to walk before the living.
9 Ohun tí ojú rí sàn ju ìfẹnuwákiri lọ. Asán ni eléyìí pẹ̀lú ó dàbí ẹni ń gbìyànjú àti mú afẹ́fẹ́.
