Omubuulizi 11
Endagaano Enkadde nʼEndagaano Empya
Bw’ogaba Katonda Akuddizaawo
11 (A)Siganga emmere yo ng’enkuba etonnya,
kubanga ebbanga lyayo bwe lirituuka olikungula.
2 Gabiranga musanvu weewaawo munaana,
kubanga mu biseera eby’oluvannyuma oyinza okubeera mu kwetaaga.
3 Ebire bwe bijjula amazzi,
bitonnyesa enkuba ku nsi;
n’omuti bwe gugwa nga gwolekedde obukiikaddyo oba obukiikakkono,
mu kifo mwe gugwa mwe gulibeera.
4 Oyo alabirira embuyaga talisiga;
n’oyo atunuulira ebire talikungula.
5 (B)Nga bw’otosobola kutegeera kkubo mpewo,
oba omubiri nga bwe guzimbibwa ku mwana ali mu lubuto;
bw’otyo bw’otosobola kutegeera Katonda
Omutonzi wa byonna by’akola.
6 (C)Ku makya siga ensigo zo,
n’akawungeezi toddiriza mukono gwo;
kubanga tomanyi eziryala,
zino oba ziri,
oba zombi ziriba nnungi.
7 (D)Ekitangaala kirungi,
era okulaba ku musana kisanyusa.
8 (E)Kale omuntu bw’awangaala emyaka emingi,
agisanyukirengamu gyonna,
naye ajjukirenga nti waliwo ennaku ez’ekizikiza
nnyingi ezijja.
Ebyo byonna ebijja butaliimu.
9 (F)Omuvubuka sanyukiranga mu buvubuka bwo,
n’omutima gwo gusanyukenga mu nnaku ez’obuvubuka bwo;
tambulira mu makubo g’omutima gwo
ne mu kulaba kw’amaaso go.
Naye manya nga mu byonna,
Katonda agenda kukusalira omusango.
10 (G)Noolwekyo ggyawo okweraliikirira mu mutima
era weggyeko emitawaana mu ggwe,
kubanga obuvubuka n’amaanyi gaabwe butaliimu.
Ecclesiastes 11
New International Version
Ecclesiastes 11
New International Version
Invest in Many Ventures
11 Ship(A) your grain across the sea;
after many days you may receive a return.(B)
2 Invest in seven ventures, yes, in eight;
you do not know what disaster may come upon the land.
3 If clouds are full of water,
they pour rain on the earth.
Whether a tree falls to the south or to the north,
in the place where it falls, there it will lie.
4 Whoever watches the wind will not plant;
whoever looks at the clouds will not reap.
5 As you do not know the path of the wind,(C)
or how the body is formed[a] in a mother’s womb,(D)
so you cannot understand the work of God,
the Maker of all things.
6 Sow your seed in the morning,
and at evening let your hands not be idle,(E)
for you do not know which will succeed,
whether this or that,
or whether both will do equally well.
Remember Your Creator While Young
7 Light is sweet,
and it pleases the eyes to see the sun.(F)
8 However many years anyone may live,
let them enjoy them all.
But let them remember(G) the days of darkness,
for there will be many.
Everything to come is meaningless.
9 You who are young, be happy while you are young,
and let your heart give you joy in the days of your youth.
Follow the ways of your heart
and whatever your eyes see,
but know that for all these things
God will bring you into judgment.(H)
10 So then, banish anxiety(I) from your heart
and cast off the troubles of your body,
for youth and vigor are meaningless.(J)
