na ka anga ahau, ka mea kia whakaparahako toku ngakau ki te mauiui katoa i mauiui ai ahau i raro i te ra
therefore i went about to cause my heart to despair of all the labour which i took under the sun.

mona kihai i tutaki i nga tatau o te kopu o toku whaea, kihai i huna i te mauiui kei kitea e ahau
because it shut not up the doors of my mother's womb, nor hid sorrow from mine eyes.

he aha ahau i puta mai ai i te kopu, kia kite i te raruraru, i te mauiui, kia poto ano oku ra i te whakama
wherefore came i forth out of the womb to see labour and sorrow, that my days should be consumed with shame?

he maumau to koutou ara wawe, to koutou noho roa i te po, ta koutou kai i te taro o te mauiui: ko tana moe tena ka homai nei ki tana e aroha ai
it is vain for you to rise up early, to sit up late, to eat the bread of sorrows: for so he giveth his beloved sleep.

na ka kite ahau i te mauiui katoa, i nga mahi tohunga katoa, he mea hoki tenei e hae ai te tangata ki tona hoa. he horihori ano hoki tenei, a he whai kau i te hau
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.

kua pau hoki i te mea whakama te mauiui o o tatou matua, no to tatou tamarikitanga ake ano; a ratou hipi, a ratou kau, a ratou tama, me a ratou tamahine
for shame hath devoured the labour of our fathers from our youth; their flocks and their herds, their sons and their daughters.
