Ecclesiastes 6

Bible Mutal (Kosraean)
King James Version with Apocrypha
1Nga liye pac lah fin facl se inge oasr sie ma koluk na yohk sikyak, ac mwet puspis wi pulakin.
1There is an evil which I have seen under the sun, and it is common among men:
2God El ac sang mwe kasrup, sunak, ac acn nu sin sie mwet, aok el fas ke ma lungse lal nukewa. Na tok God El tia lela nu sel in engan kac. Siena mwet pa ac insewowokin, ac tia el. Tiana suwohs in ouinge. Arulana wangin sripa.
2A man to whom God hath given riches, wealth, and honour, so that he wanteth nothing for his soul of all that he desireth, yet God giveth him not power to eat thereof, but a stranger eateth it: this is vanity, and it is an evil disease.
3Mwet se fin oasr foko tulik natul ac loes moul lal, tusruktu tu el finne moul paht a el tia insewowo in moul lal, ku fin tia pukpuki el in wo, na nga ku in fahk mu wo nu sin tulik fusr se ma misa na osweyukla, liki mwet sac.
3¶ If a man beget an hundred children , and live many years, so that the days of his years be many, and his soul be not filled with good, and also that he have no burial; I say, that an untimely birth is better than he.
4Wangin sripa in osweyukla tulik sac — el wanginla nu in lohsr, yen mulkinyukla el we.
4For he cometh in with vanity, and departeth in darkness, and his name shall be covered with darkness.
5El tiana liye kalem lun len uh, ku etu kutena ma ke luman moul uh, tusruktu el konauk mongla —
5Moreover he hath not seen the sun, nor known any thing: this hath more rest than the other.
6yohk liki na mwet se ma tiana insewowokin moul lal uh el finne moul yac luo tausin. Kalem lah eltal kewa ac som nu yen sefanna.
6¶ Yea, though he live a thousand years twice told , yet hath he seen no good: do not all go to one place?
7Sie mwet el oru orekma lal nukewa ma na in konauk mwe mongo nal, tusruktu wangin pacl el muti kac.
7All the labour of man is for his mouth, and yet the appetite is not filled.
8Mea ac wo nu sin mwet lalmwetmet se liki mwet lalfon se? Oayapa wangin ma ac wo nu sin sie mwet sukasrup el finne moulkin moul wo inmasrlon mwet uh.
8For what hath the wise more than the fool? what hath the poor, that knoweth to walk before the living?
9Ma inge ma lusrongten — oana ukweyen eng uh. Wo kom in falkin ma oasr yurum, liki kom in mwel kutu pacna ma saya pacl nukewa.
9¶ Better is the sight of the eyes than the wandering of the desire: this is also vanity and vexation of spirit.
10Ma nukewa ma sikyak uh nuna oakwuki oemeet me, ac kut nukewa etu lah sie mwet el tia ku in akukuin nu sin sie su ku lukel.
10That 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.
11Kom finne kaskas pusla ke akukuin, ac nuna wangin sripa wo ac tuku kac, ac kom tia pac eis wo kac.
11¶ Seeing there be many things that increase vanity, what is man the better?
12Su ku in etu lah mea ac wo emeet nu sin sie mwet ke lusen moul fototo ac lusrongten se inge — sie moul su ac wanginla oana lul in pukunyeng? Su ku in etu ma ac sikyak fin faclu tukun kut misa?
12For 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?
