Wisdom Dey Make Person Face Shine
Wisdom dey tell person make e shine eye for front of king wey dey do wetin e like. Nobody fit control breeze or di day wey person go die. When judgment delay, e dey make evil get mind, and plenty time di righteous dey collect wetin di wicked suppose collect. Di Teacher praise make person enjoy, and e confess say nobody fit find out God work.
8 1Who be like di wise person? Who sabi wetin any tin mean? Person wisdom dey make im face shine; di hard-hard for im face dey change comot.
2I dey talk say, keep di king command, because of di oath wey you swear for God front.
How to Waka Inside di King Power
3No rush comot for im presence, or stand inside evil matter—di king dey do anytin wey im want. 4Because di king word carry di highest power, and who fit tell am, “Wetin you dey do?” 5Anybody wey keep command no go know harm; wise heart sabi time and di correct way. 6Every matter get im time and im way, even if person trouble dey heavy for im head. 7Because nobody sabi wetin dey come, and who fit tell am how e go be? 8Nobody get power over di wind to hold am back, or di day wey person go die. Nobody dey escape from dat war, and evil no go save di people wey dey do am. 9I see all dis tin, as I put my heart give every work wey dem dey do under di sun—time wey one person dey rule anoda person to im own harm.
Wen Justice Look Like Say E Slow
10Den I see dem bury di wicked people and put dem to rest; dem come and go from di holy place and dem praise dem for di city where dem bin do so. Dis one too na tin wey dey pass quick. a a v10 Di holy place na di temple for Jerusalem. 11Because dem no dey quick carry out judgment for evil work, people heart full well-well to dey do evil. 12Even if sinner do evil one hundred times and still dey live long, I sabi say e go better for di people wey fear God, wey dey fear for im front. 13Tin no go better for di wicked people, and dem no go make dem days long like shadow, because dem no dey fear God.
14One tin wey dey pass quick dey happen for earth: correct-and-holy people dey collect wetin di wicked suppose collect, and wicked people dey collect wetin di correct-and-holy suppose collect. I talk say dis one too na tin wey dey pass quick. 15So I praise enjoyment: notin better pass for person under di sun than to chop, drink, and dey glad. Dis one dey follow am for im work, di days of life wey God give am under di sun.
16Wen I set my heart to know wisdom and see di work wey dem dey do for earth, even as person eye no dey see sleep for day or for night. 17Den I see all God work: nobody fit find out di work wey dem dey do under di sun. No matter how hard dem search, dem no go find am; even if di wise people talk say dem sabi, dem no fit find am out.
