4. ಅದಕ್ಕೆ ನಾನು, “ನಾನು ಪಡುವ ಪ್ರಯಾಸವು ವ್ಯರ್ಥ, ನನ್ನ ಶಕ್ತಿಯನ್ನೆಲ್ಲಾ ಉಪಯೋಗಮಾಡಿದ್ದು ಹಾಳೇ, ಬರಿ ಗಾಳಿಯೇ. ಆದರೂ ನನ್ನ ನ್ಯಾಯವು ಯೆಹೋವನಲ್ಲಿದೆ. ನನಗೆ ಲಾಭವು ನನ್ನ ದೇವರಿಂದಲೇ ಆಗುವುದು” ಎಂದು ಅಂದುಕೊಂಡೆನು.
KNV
4. ಅದಕ್ಕೆ ನಾನು--ನಾನು ಪಡುವ ಪ್ರಯಾಸವು ವ್ಯರ್ಥ, ನನ್ನ ಶಕ್ತಿಯನ್ನೆಲ್ಲಾ ನಿಷ್ಪ್ರಯೋಜನವಾಗಿಯೂ ವ್ಯರ್ಥವಾ ಗಿಯೂ ಕಳಕೊಂಡೆನೆಂದು ಹೇಳಿದೆನು. ಆದರೂ ನಿಶ್ಚಯವಾಗಿ ನನ್ನ ನ್ಯಾಯವು ಕರ್ತನ ಬಳಿಯಲ್ಲಿಯೂ ನನ್ನ ಪ್ರತಿಫಲವು ನನ್ನ ದೇವರಲ್ಲಿಯೂ ಉಂಟು.
ERVKN
4. ಆಗ ನಾನು “ನಾನು ಕಷ್ಟಪಟ್ಟು ಮಾಡಿದ ಕಾರ್ಯಗಳೆಲ್ಲವೂ ನಿಷ್ಪ್ರಯೋಜನವಾದವು. ನಾನು ನನ್ನನ್ನೇ ಸವೆಯಿಸಿದೆನು. ಆದರೆ ಪ್ರಯೋಜನವಾದದ್ದನ್ನು ನಾನು ಮಾಡಲಿಲ್ಲ. ನಾನು ನನ್ನ ಶಕ್ತಿಯನ್ನೆಲ್ಲಾ ಉಪಯೋಗಿಸಿದರೂ ಏನೂ ಮಾಡಲಾಗಲಿಲ್ಲ. ಆದ್ದರಿಂದ ನನಗೆ ಮಾಡಬೇಕಾದುದನ್ನು ಯೆಹೋವನೇ ತೀರ್ಮಾನಿಸಲಿ. ನನಗೆ ದೊರಕಬೇಕಾದ ಬಹುಮಾನವನ್ನು ದೇವರೇ ತೀರ್ಮಾನಿಸಲಿ” ಎಂದು ಹೇಳಿದೆನು.
