Eklisiastis 11:1-10
11 Tromoi* bret bilong yu i go long ol wara,+ na planti de bihain yu bai lukim gen.+
2 Givim wanpela hap bilong ol samting yu gat long 7-pela o 8-pela man,+ bikos yu no save wanem kain disasta* bai kamap long graun.
3 Sapos wara i pulap long ol klaut, ol bai kapsait i kam daun olsem ren long graun; na sapos wanpela diwai i pundaun i go long hap saut o long hap not, orait diwai bai slip long ples we em i pundaun long en.
4 Man husat i save putim ai long win, em bai no inap planim ol sid, na man husat i save lukluk long ol klaut, em bai no inap kamautim ol kaikai.+
5 Yu no save long hau strong bilong laip* i wok insait long ol bun bilong bebi insait* long bel bilong mama,+ olsem tasol yu no save long ol wok bilong God tru, husat i save mekim olgeta samting.+
6 Planim ol sid bilong yu long moningtaim na no ken larim han bilong yu i malolo inap long apinun;+ bikos yu no save wanem sid bai gro, dispela sid o dispela narapela sid, o tupela wantaim bai gro.
7 Lait em i gutpela samting, na i gutpela long ai i lukim san.
8 Sapos wanpela man i stap laip inap planti yia, orait larim em i amamas long olgeta dispela yia.+ Tasol em i mas tingim olsem nogut ol de bilong tudak bai planti; olgeta dispela de we bai kamap i no gat as tru bilong en.+
9 Yangpela man, amamas taim yu stap yangpela yet, na larim bel bilong yu i amamas long ol de yu stap yangpela. Bihainim tingting na laik bilong bel bilong yu na go long ol hap em ai bilong yu i stiaim yu long en; tasol yu mas save olsem God tru bai jasim yu long olgeta dispela samting.+
10 Olsem na rausim long bel ol samting we i save givim trabel, na sakim ol samting we inap nogutim bodi bilong yu, bikos taim bilong stap yangpela na nambawan gutpela haptaim bilong laip, i save stap sotpela taim tasol.*+
