1 Čuvaj nogu svoju kad ideš u dom Božji, i pristupi da slušaš; to je bolje nego što bezumni daju žrtve, jer ne znaju da zlo čine.
1 Guard your steps when you go to God’s house; for to draw near to listen is better than to give the sacrifice of fools, for they don’t know that they do evil.
2 Nemoj nagliti ustima svojim, i srce tvoje da ne bude brzo izgovoriti šta pred Bogom, jer je Bog na nebu, a ti si na zemlji, zato neka bude malo reči tvojih.
2 Don’t be rash with your mouth, and don’t let your heart be hasty to utter anything before God; for God is in heaven, and you on earth. Therefore let your words be few.
3 Jer san dolazi od mnogog posla, a glas bezumnikov od mnogih reči.
3 For as a dream comes with a multitude of cares, so a fool’s speech with a multitude of words.
4 Kad učiniš zavet Bogu, ne oklevaj ispuniti ga, jer Mu nisu mili bezumnici; šta god zavetuješ, ispuni.
4 When you vow a vow to God, don’t defer to pay it; for he has no pleasure in fools. Pay that which you vow.
5 Bolje je da ne zavetuješ negoli da zavetuješ pa ne ispuniš.
5 It is better that you should not vow, than that you should vow and not pay.
6 Ne daj ustima svojim da na greh navode telo tvoje, i ne govori pred anđelom da je bilo nehotice. Zašto bi se gnevio Bog na reči tvoje i potro delo ruku tvojih?
6 Don’t allow your mouth to lead you into sin. Don’t protest before the messenger that this was a mistake. Why should God be angry at your voice, and destroy the work of your hands?
7 Jer kao što u mnoštvu snova ima taštine, tako i u mnogim rečima; nego boj se Boga.
7 For in the multitude of dreams there are vanities, as well as in many words; but you must fear God.
8 Ako vidiš gde se čini nepravda siromahu i otima sud i pravda u zemlji, ne čudi se tome, jer viši pazi na visokog, i ima još viših nad njima.
8 If you see the oppression of the poor, and the violent taking away of justice and righteousness in a district, don’t marvel at the matter, for one official is eyed by a higher one, and there are officials over them.
9 Ali je zemlja korisnija od svega; i car njivi služi.
9 Moreover the profit of the earth is for all. The king profits from the field.
10 Ko ljubi novce, neće se nasititi novaca; i ko ljubi bogatstvo, neće imati koristi od njega. I to je taština.
10 He who loves silver shall not be satisfied with silver, nor he who loves abundance, with increase. This also is vanity.
11 Gde je mnogo dobra, mnogo je i onih koji ga jedu; pa kakva je korist od toga gospodaru? Osim što gleda svojim očima.
11 When goods increase, those who eat them are increased; and what advantage is there to its owner, except to feast on them with his eyes?
12 Sladak je san onome koji radi, jeo malo ili mnogo; a sitost bogatome ne da spavati.
12 The sleep of a laboring man is sweet, whether he eats little or much; but the abundance of the rich will not allow him to sleep.
13 Ima ljuto zlo koje videh pod suncem: bogatstvo koje se čuva na zlo onome čije je.
13 There is a grievous evil which I have seen under the sun: wealth kept by its owner to his harm.
14 Jer tako bogatstvo propadne zlom nezgodom, te sinu kog je rodio ne ostane ništa u ruku.
14 Those riches perish by misfortune, and if he has fathered a son, there is nothing in his hand.
15 Kao što je izašao iz utrobe matere svoje nag, tako opet odlazi kako je došao; i ništa ne uzima od truda svog da ponese u ruci svojoj.
15 As he came out of his mother’s womb, naked shall he go again as he came, and shall take nothing for his labor, which he may carry away in his hand.
16 I to je ljuto zlo što odlazi kako je došao; i kakva mu je korist što se trudio u vetar,
16 This also is a grievous evil, that in all points as he came, so shall he go. And what profit does he have who labors for the wind?
17 i svega veka svog jeo u mraku, i mnogo se brinuo i žalostio i ljutio?
17 All his days he also eats in darkness, he is frustrated, and has sickness and wrath.
18 Eto, to videh da je dobro i lepo čoveku da jede i pije i uživa dobro od svega truda svog kojim se trudi pod nebom za života svog, koji mu Bog da, jer mu je to deo.
18 Behold, that which I have seen to be good and proper is for one to eat and to drink, and to enjoy good in all his labor, in which he labors under the sun, all the days of his life which God has given him; for this is his portion.
19 I kad kome Bog da bogatstvo i blago, i da mu da uživa i uzima svoj deo i da se veseli s truda svog, to je dar Božji.
19 Every man also to whom God has given riches and wealth, and has given him power to eat of it, and to take his portion, and to rejoice in his labor—this is the gift of God.
20 Jer se neće mnogo opominjati dana života svog, jer mu Bog daje da mu je srce veselo.
20 For he shall not often reflect on the days of his life, because God occupies him with the joy of his heart.
