1ʻOku ai ʻae kovi kuo u mamata ki ai ʻi he lalo laʻā, pea ʻoku lahi ia ʻi he tangata.
1A IA no ka mea pono ole a'u i ike ai malalo iho o ka la, a he mea nui la maluna o na kanaka.
2Ko e tangata ʻaia ʻoku foaki ki ai ʻe he ʻOtua ʻae paʻanga lahi, mo e koloa lahi, mo e ongoongolelei, ko ia ʻoku ʻikai te ne masiva ai ʻi ha meʻa ki hono laumālie ʻi he meʻa kotoa pē ʻoku ne holi ki ai, ka ʻoku ʻikai foaki ʻae mālohi kiate ia ʻe he ʻOtua ke ne kamata ia, ka ʻoku kai ia ʻe he kakai kehe; ko e vaʻinga eni, pea ko e mahaki kovi moʻoni.
2O ke kanaka ka mea a ke Akua i haawi mai ai i ka waiwai nona, a me ka lako me ka hanohano; aole nele iki kona uhane i na mea ana e makemake ai, aka hoi, aole i ae mai ke Akua e ai ia i keia mau mea, aka, ua aiia kana e ka malihini. He mea lapuwale keia, a he mea ino hoi.
3¶ Kapau ʻe tupu ʻi ha tangata ʻae fānau ʻe toko teau, pea moʻui ia ki he ngaahi taʻu lahi, pea lahi ʻaupito ʻae ngaahi ʻaho ʻo hono taʻu, ka ʻoku ʻikai fakapito hono laumālie ʻi he lelei, pea ka mate ia ʻoku ʻikai fai hano putu; ʻoku ou pehē ʻeau, ʻoku lelei hake ʻiate ia ha fanauʻi taʻehoko.
3Ina i loaa i ke kanaka na keiki hookahi haneri, a ola ia i na makahiki he nui loa, aole okana mai na la o kona mau makahiki, aole nae i maona kona uhane i ka maikai, aole hoi ona wahi e kanuia'i; ke hai aku nei au, ua oi aku ka maikai o ke keiki oiliwale i kona.
4He koeʻuhi ʻoku hoko mai ia mo e vaʻinga, pea ʻoku ʻalu ʻi he fakapoʻuli, pea ʻe ʻufiʻufi ʻaki ʻae fakapoʻuli ʻa hono hingoa.
4No ka mea, ua puka mai oia ma ka lapuwale, a hele aku la ia ma ka pouli, a ua uhiia kona inoa i ka pouli.
5Kaeʻumaʻā eni, naʻe ʻikai te ne mamata ki he laʻā, pe ʻilo ha meʻa ʻe taha: ʻoku lahi hake ʻa ʻene fiemālie ʻaʻana ʻi he tokotaha ko ia.
5Aole hoi ia i nana i ka la, aole oia i ike iki, ua oi aku ko ia nei oluolu i ko ia la.
6¶ ʻIo, neongo ʻene moʻui ʻi ha taʻu ʻe ua afe, ka naʻe ʻikai te ne mamata ki he lelei: ʻikai ʻoku ʻalu kotoa pē ki he potu pe taha?
6Oia, ina e ola ia i na makahiki hookahi tausani ke paluaia, aole hoi oia i ike i ka maikai. Aole anei e hele na mea a pau i kahi hookahi?
7ʻOku fai ʻae ngāue kotoa pē ʻae tangata, koeʻuhi ko hono ngutu, ka ʻoku ʻikai fiu ai ʻene holi.
7O na hana a pau a ke kanaka, na kona waha iho no ia, aole nae i maona kona opu.
8He ko e hā ʻoku maʻu lahi hake ʻe he poto ʻiate ia ʻoku vale? Ko e hā ʻoku maʻu ʻe he masiva, ʻaia ʻoku ʻilo ke ʻalu totonu ʻi he ʻao ʻoe kakai moʻui?
8Ma na mea hea i oi aku ai ka mea naauao mamua o ka mea naaupo? Heaha ka mea i loaa i ka ilihune, ka mea i ike i ka hele ana imua o ka poe ola?
9¶ ʻOku lelei hake ʻae sio ʻae mata ʻi he holi fano ʻae laumālie: he ko e vaʻinga foki eni mo e fakamamahi ki he laumālie.
9Ua oi aku ka maikai o ka ike maka ana mamua o ka hele ana'ku o ka manao. He mea lapuwale keia, a me ka luhi hewa.
10Ko e meʻa ʻaia naʻe ʻi ai kuo ʻosi hono fakahingoa, pea kuo ʻilo ia ko e tangata: ka ʻoku ʻikai faʻa fekuki ia mo ia ʻoku mālohi lahi kiate ia.
10O ka mea i hala aku nei, ua kapaia kona inoa, a o ke kanaka hoi ua ikeia oia, aole hiki ia ia ke ku e i ka mea mana mamua ona.
11¶ Pea ʻi he ʻi ai ʻae ngaahi meʻa lahi ʻoku tupulekina ai ʻae vaʻinga, ko e hā hono ʻaonga ki he tangata?
11Nolaila, ua mahuahua ka lapuwale ma na mea he nui loa; a pehea la e pono ai ke kanaka?
12He ko hai ʻoku ne ʻilo ʻae meʻa ʻoku lelei ki he tangata ʻi he moʻui ni, ʻi he ʻaho kotoa pē ʻo ʻene moʻui vaʻinga, ʻaia ʻoku mole atu ʻo hangē ko e ʻata? He ko hai ʻoku faʻa tala ki he tangata ʻae meʻa ʻe hoko kimui ʻiate ia ʻi he lalo laʻā?
12No ka mea, owai ka mea i ike i ka mea e pono ai ke kanaka i kona ola ana, i na la a pau o kona ola lapuwale ana i hoopau ai me he aka la; a owai hoi ka mea nana e hai aku i ke kanaka i na mea e hiki mai ana mahope ona malalo iho o ka la?
