5:11  ghorgh goods increase, chaH 'Iv Sop chaH 'oH increased; je nuq advantage ghaH pa' Daq its ghajwI', except Daq 'uQ'a' Daq chaH tlhej Daj mInDu'?

5:12  The Qong vo' a laboring loD ghaH sweet, whether ghaH eats mach joq 'ar; 'ach the abundance vo' the rich DichDaq ghobe' allow ghaH Daq Qong.

5:13  pa' ghaH a grievous mIghtaHghach nuq jIH ghaj leghpu' bIng the pemHov: wealth polta' Sum its ghajwI' Daq Daj harm.

5:14  chaH riches chIlqu' Sum misfortune, je chugh ghaH ghajtaH fathered a puqloD, pa' ghaH pagh Daq Daj ghop.

5:15  As ghaH ghoSta' vo' vo' Daj mother's womb, naked DIchDaq ghaH jaH again as ghaH ghoSta', je DIchDaq tlhap pagh vaD Daj labor, nuq ghaH may carry DoH Daq Daj ghop.

5:17  Hoch Daj jajmey ghaH je eats Daq HurghtaHghach, ghaH ghaH frustrated, je ghajtaH sickness je QeHpu'.

5:18  yIlegh, vetlh nuq jIH ghaj leghpu' Daq taH QaQ je proper ghaH vaD wa' Daq Sop je Daq tlhutlh, je Daq enjoy QaQ Daq Hoch Daj labor, Daq nuq ghaH labors bIng the pemHov, Hoch the jajmey vo' Daj yIn nuq joH'a' ghajtaH nobpu' ghaH; vaD vam ghaH Daj portion.

5:19  Hoch loD je Daq 'Iv joH'a' ghajtaH nobpu' riches je wealth, je ghajtaH nobpu' ghaH HoS Daq Sop vo' 'oH, je Daq tlhap Daj portion, je Daq yItIv Daq Daj labor— vam ghaH the gift vo' joH'a'.
