| 1 | Ibizo elihle lingcono kulamafutha amahle; losuku lokufa kulosuku lokuzalwa kwakhe. | A good name is better than precious ointment; and the day of death than the day of one’s birth. |
| 2 | Kungcono ukuya endlini yokulila kulokuya endlini yedili; ngoba lokhu kuyisiphetho sakhe wonke umuntu; lophilayo uzakubeka enhliziyweni yakhe. | It is better to go to the house of mourning, than to go to the house of feasting: for that is the end of all men; and the living will lay it to his heart. |
| 3 | Usizi lungcono kulohleko, ngoba ngokudana kobuso inhliziyo yenziwa ngcono. | Sorrow is better than laughter: for by the sadness of the countenance the heart is made better. |
| 4 | Inhliziyo yabahlakaniphileyo isendlini yokulila, kodwa inhliziyo yezithutha isendlini yentokozo. | The heart of the wise is in the house of mourning; but the heart of fools is in the house of mirth. |
| 5 | Kungcono ukuzwa ukukhuza kohlakaniphileyo kulokuthi umuntu ezwe ingoma yezithutha. | It is better to hear the rebuke of the wise, than for a man to hear the song of fools. |
| 6 | Ngoba njengokuchachamba kwameva ngaphansi kwembiza lunjalo uhleko lwesithutha. Lokhu lakho kuyize. | For as the crackling of thorns under a pot, so is the laughter of the fool: this also is vanity. |
| 7 | Isibili ucindezelo lwenza ohlakaniphileyo abe luhlanya, lesipho siyayichitha inhliziyo. | Surely oppression maketh a wise man mad; and a gift destroyeth the heart. |
| 8 | Singcono isiphetho sento kulokuqala kwayo; kungcono ukubekezela komoya kulokuziphakamisa komoya. | Better is the end of a thing than the beginning thereof: and the patient in spirit is better than the proud in spirit. |
| 9 | Ungaphangisi emoyeni wakho ukuthukuthela, ngoba ukuthukuthela kuhlala esifubeni sezithutha. | Be not hasty in thy spirit to be angry: for anger resteth in the bosom of fools. |
| 10 | Ungatsho ukuthi: Kwenziwa yini ukuthi insuku zakuqala zibe ngcono kulalezi? Ngoba kawubuzi ngenhlakanipho ngalokhu. | Say not thou, What is the cause that the former days were better than these? for thou dost not enquire wisely concerning this. |
| 11 | Inhlakanipho yinhle ilelifa, njalo kulenzuzo kwabalibonayo ilanga. | Wisdom is good with an inheritance: and by it there is profit to them that see the sun. |
| 12 | Ngoba inhlakanipho iyisivikelo, imali iyisivikelo; kodwa ubungcono bolwazi yikuthi lunika impilo kubaninilo. | For wisdom is a defence, and money is a defence: but the excellency of knowledge is, that wisdom giveth life to them that have it. |
| 13 | Nakana umsebenzi kaNkulunkulu; ngoba ngubani olakho ukwelula akugobisileyo? | Consider the work of God: for who can make that straight, which he hath made crooked? |
| 14 | Thokoza ngosuku lokuphumelela, kodwa ngosuku lobubi nakana: UNkulunkulu ulwenzile lalolu lwaba njengalolo, ukuze umuntu angatholi lutho oluzakuba khona emva kwakhe. | In the day of prosperity be joyful, but in the day of adversity consider: God also hath set the one over against the other, to the end that man should find nothing after him. |
| 15 | Konke ngikubonile ensukwini zokuyize kwami: Kukhona olungileyo obhubhela ekulungeni kwakhe, njalo kukhona omubi owelula impilo yakhe ebubini bakhe. | All things have I seen in the days of my vanity: there is a just man that perisheth in his righteousness, and there is a wicked man that prolongeth his life in his wickedness. |
| 16 | Ungabi ngolungileyo ngokudlulisayo, futhi ungahlakaniphi okwedlulisileyo; uzichithelani? | Be not righteous over much; neither make thyself over wise: why shouldest thou destroy thyself? |
| 17 | Ungabi ngomubi ngokudlulisayo, futhi ungabi yisiwula; uzafelani kungakabi yisikhathi sakho? | Be not over much wicked, neither be thou foolish: why shouldest thou die before thy time? |
| 18 | Kuhle ukuthi ubambelele kulokhu, yebo, ungabuyisi isandla sakho lakulokho; ngoba omesabayo uNkulunkulu uzaphepha kukho konke. | It is good that thou shouldest take hold of this; yea, also from this withdraw not thine hand: for he that feareth God shall come forth of them all. |
| 19 | Inhlakanipho iyamqinisa ohlakaniphileyo okwedlula ababusi abalitshumi abasemzini. | Wisdom strengtheneth the wise more than ten mighty men which are in the city. |
| 20 | Ngoba kakulamuntu olungileyo emhlabeni owenza okuhle angoni. | For there is not a just man upon earth, that doeth good, and sinneth not. |
| 21 | Futhi ungabeki inhliziyo yakho emazwini wonke akhulunywayo, ukuze ungezwa ukuthi inceku yakho iyakuthuka. | Also take no heed unto all words that are spoken; lest thou hear thy servant curse thee: |
| 22 | Ngoba ngezikhathi ezinengi lenhliziyo yakho iyakwazi ukuthi lawe uqobo ubathukile abanye. | For oftentimes also thine own heart knoweth that thou thyself likewise hast cursed others. |
| 23 | Konke lokhu ngikuhlolile ngenhlakanipho, ngathi: Ngizahlakanipha; kodwa kwakukhatshana lami. | All this have I proved by wisdom: I said, I will be wise; but it was far from me. |
| 24 | Okukhatshana, lokujule kakhulu, ngubani ozakufumana? | That which is far off, and exceeding deep, who can find it out? |
| 25 | Ngaphenduka mina lenhliziyo yami ukwazi lokuhlola lokudinga inhlakanipho, lesizatho sezinto, lokwazi inkohlakalo yobuwula, lobuthutha bobuhlanya. | I applied mine heart to know, and to search, and to seek out wisdom, and the reason of things, and to know the wickedness of folly, even of foolishness and madness: |
| 26 | Ngasengithola okubaba kulokufa: Owesifazana onhliziyo yakhe iyimijibila lamambule, lezandla zakhe ziyizibopho. Olungileyo phambi kukaNkulunkulu uzaphepha kuye, kodwa isoni sizabanjwa nguye. | And I find more bitter than death the woman, whose heart is snares and nets, and her hands as bands: whoso pleaseth God shall escape from her; but the sinner shall be taken by her. |
| 27 | Khangela, yilokhu engikutholileyo, utsho umTshumayeli, ngibeka okunye kokunye, ukuthola isizatho sezinto, | Behold, this have I found, saith the preacher, counting one by one, to find out the account: |
| 28 | umphefumulo wami osasidinga kodwa kangisitholanga. Indoda eyodwa phakathi kwenkulungwane ngayithola, kodwa owesifazana phakathi kwabo bonke labo kangimtholanga. | Which yet my soul seeketh, but I find not: one man among a thousand have I found; but a woman among all those have I not found. |
| 29 | Khangela, yilokhu kuphela engikutholileyo, ukuthi uNkulunkulu wamenza umuntu waqonda; kodwa bona sebedinge amacebo amanengi. | Lo, this only have I found, that God hath made man upright; but they have sought out many inventions. |
