Kapitel 4
1
Opet videh sve nepravde koje se čine pod suncem, i gle, suze onih kojima se čini nepravda, i nemaju ko bi ih potešio ni snage da se izbave iz ruku onih koji im čine nepravdu; nemaju nikoga da ih poteši.
2
Zato hvalih mrtve koji već pomreše više nego žive koji još žive.
3
Ali je bolji i od jednih i od drugih onaj koji još nije postao, koji nije video zlo što biva pod suncem.
4
Jer videh svaki trud i svako dobro delo da od njega biva zavist čoveku od bližnjeg njegovog. I to je taština i muka duhu.
5
Bezumnik sklapa ruke svoje, i jede svoje telo:
6
Bolja je jedna grst u miru nego obe grsti s trudom i mukom u duhu.
7
Opet videh taštinu pod suncem:
8
Ima ko je sam, inokosan, nema ni sina ni brata, i opet nema kraja trudu njegovom, i oči njegove ne mogu da se nasite bogatstva; a ne misli: Za koga se mučim i oduzimam svojoj duši dobra? I to je taština i zao posao.
9
Bolje je dvojici nego jednom, jer imaju dobru dobit od svog truda.
10
Jer ako jedan padne, drugi će podignuti druga svog; a teško jednom! Ako padne, nema drugog da ga podigne.
11
Još ako dvojica spavaju zajedno, greje jedan drugog; a jedan kako će se zgrejati?
12
I ako bi ko nadjačao jednog, dvojica će mu odoleti; i trostruka vrpca ne kida se lako.
13
Bolje je dete ubogo, a mudro nego car star, a bezuman, koji se već ne zna poučiti.
14
Jer jedan izlazi iz tamnice da caruje, a drugi koji se rodi da caruje osiromaši.
15
Videh sve žive koji hode pod suncem gde pristaju za detetom drugim, koje će stupiti na njegovo mesto.
16
Nema kraja narodu koji beše pred njim, a koji posle nastanu neće se radovati njemu. I to je taština i muka duhu.
Ecclesiastes
Kapitel 4
1
So I returned, and considered all the oppressions that are done under the sun: and behold the tears of such as were oppressed, and they had no comforter; and on the side of their oppressors there was power; but they had no comforter.
2
Wherefore I praised the dead which are already dead more than the living which are yet alive.
3
Yea, better is he than both they, which hath not yet been, who hath not seen the evil work that is done under the sun.
4
¶ Again, I considered all travail, and every right work, that for this a man is envied of his neighbour. This is also vanity and vexation of spirit.
5
The fool foldeth his hands together, and eateth his own flesh.
6
Better is an handful with quietness, than both the hands full with travail and vexation of spirit.
7
¶ Then I returned, and I saw vanity under the sun.
8
There is one alone, and there is not a second; yea, he hath neither child nor brother: yet is there no end of all his labour; neither is his eye satisfied with riches; neither saith he, For whom do I labour, and bereave my soul of good? This is also vanity, yea, it is a sore travail.
9
¶ Two are better than one; because they have a good reward for their labour.
10
For if they fall, the one will lift up his fellow: but woe to him that is alone when he falleth; for he hath not another to help him up.
11
Again, if two lie together, then they have heat: but how can one be warm alone?
12
And if one prevail against him, two shall withstand him; and a threefold cord is not quickly broken.
13
¶ Better is a poor and a wise child than an old and foolish king, who will no more be admonished.
14
For out of prison he cometh to reign; whereas also he that is born in his kingdom becometh poor.
15
I considered all the living which walk under the sun, with the second child that shall stand up in his stead.
16
There is no end of all the people, even of all that have been before them: they also that come after shall not rejoice in him. Surely this also is vanity and vexation of spirit.
