Mhubiri 9:3
Ecclesiastes 9:3 · Biblica® Open Kiswahili Contemporary Version 2015
Huu ni ubaya ulio katika kila kitu kinachotendeka chini ya jua: Mwisho unaofanana huwapata wote. Zaidi ya hayo, mioyo ya watu, imejaa ubaya na kuna wazimu mioyoni mwao wangali hai, hatimaye huungana na waliokufa.
Ecclesiastes 9:3 in English
Ecclesiastes 9:3 · Berean Standard Bible
This is an evil in everything that is done under the sun: There is one fate for everyone. Furthermore, the hearts of men are full of evil and madness while they are alive, and afterward they join the dead.
Context
1Kwa hiyo niliyatafakari yote haya nikafikia uamuzi kwamba waadilifu na wenye hekima na yale wanayoyafanya yako mikononi mwa Mungu, lakini hakuna mtu ajuaye kama anangojewa na upendo au chuki. 2Wote wanayo hatima inayofanana, mwadilifu na mwovu, mwema na mbaya, aliye safi na aliye najisi, wale wanaotoa dhabihu na wale wasiotoa.
Kama ilivyo kwa mtu mwema,
ndivyo ilivyo kwa mtu mwenye dhambi;
kama ilivyo kwa wale wanaoapa,
ndivyo ilivyo kwa wale wasioapa. 3Huu ni ubaya ulio katika kila kitu kinachotendeka chini ya jua: Mwisho unaofanana huwapata wote. Zaidi ya hayo, mioyo ya watu, imejaa ubaya na kuna wazimu mioyoni mwao wangali hai, hatimaye huungana na waliokufa. 4Yeyote aliye miongoni mwa walio hai analo tumaini, hata mbwa hai ni bora kuliko simba aliyekufa! 5Kwa maana walio hai wanajua kwamba watakufa,
lakini wafu hawajui chochote,
hawana tuzo zaidi,
hata kumbukumbu yao imesahaulika.
