JPS Tanakh (Jewish Publication Society, 1917)
Bible Mutal (Kosraean)
1Cast thy bread upon the waters, for thou shalt find it after many days.
1Oasr soakas se fahk mu, “Pahtkakunla ma nom fin kof u, na tukun len pus kom ac fah sifil konauk.”
2Divide a portion into seven, yea, even into eight; for thou knowest not what evil shall be upon the earth.
2Sang kutu ma oasr yurum nu sin mwet itkosr ku oalkosr, mweyen kom koflana etu lah ongoiya fuka ac sikyak nu sum fin faclu.
3If the clouds be full of rain, they empty themselves upon the earth; and if a tree fall in the south, or in the north, in the place where the tree falleth, there shall it be.
3Acn se na ma soko sak ac topla nu we, ac oanna in sac. Pacl se pukunyeng uh sroalsroalla, na ac afi.
4He that observeth the wind shall not sow; and he that regardeth the clouds shall not reap.
4El su tuni yen eng uh tuku we me pa ac etu pacl tia fal in yok; ac el su tuni pukunyeng uh pa ac etu pacl tia fal in kosrani.
5As thou knowest not what is the way of the wind, nor how the bones do grow in the womb of her that is with child; even so thou knowest not the work of God who doeth all things.
5God El orala ma nukewa, ac kom tia ku in kalem ke ma El oru, oana ke kom tia ku in kalem ke mutaweyen moul lun sie tulik insien sie mutan pitutu.
6In the morning sow thy seed, and in the evening withhold not thy hand; for thou knowest not which shall prosper, whether this or that, or whether they both shall be alike good.
6Oru yok lom an ke lotutang ac oayapa ke eku. Kom tia ku in etu lah nufonna ac kapak wo, ku sie fwil uh ac kapak wo liki ma se ngia.
7And the light is sweet, and a pleasant thing it is for the eyes to behold the sun.
7Sie mwe insewowo ke kut liye kalem wolana lun len uh.
8For if a man live many years, let him rejoice in them all, and remember the days of darkness, for they shall be many. All that cometh is vanity.
8Engankin yac nukewa ma kom moul uh. Finne loes moul lom, esam lah misa lom fah loes liki. Ma nukewa ma ac sikyak faclu meet liki kom misa, ma na lusrongten.
9Rejoice, O young man, in thy youth; and let thy heart cheer thee in the days of thy youth, and walk in the ways of thy heart, and in the sight of thine eyes; but know thou, that for all these things God will bring thee into judgment.
9Mwet fusr, kowos in engankin moul in mwet fusr lowos an. Kowos in insewowo ke kowos srakna fusr. Oru ma kowos lungse oru an, ac suk ma kowos liye mu wo uh. Tusruktu esam lah God El ac nununkekowos ke kutena ma kowos oru.
10Therefore remove vexation from thy heart, and put away evil from thy flesh; for childhood and youth are vanity.
10Finne oasr mwe akasorye kowos ku mwe akngalye kowos, nimet kowos fosrnga, mweyen pacl in fusr lowos ac mutaweyen moul lowos uh ma lusrongten.
