(The increase granted to humility)
曲则全，The partial becomes complete;
枉则直，the crooked, straight;
洼则盈，the empty, full;
弊则新，the worn out, new.
少则得， He whose (desires) are few gets them;
多则惑。 he whose (desires) are many goes astray.
是以圣人抱一为天下式。Therefore the sage holds in his embrace the one thing (of humility), and manifests it to all the world.
不自见， He is free from self- display,
故明； and therefore he shines;
不自是， from self-assertion,
故彰； and therefore he is distinguished;
不自伐， from self-boasting,
故有功； and therefore his merit is acknowledged;
不自矜， from self-complacency,
故长。 and therefore he acquires superiority.
夫唯不争，故天下莫能与之争。It is because he is thus free from striving that therefore no one in the world is able to strive with him.
古之所谓曲则全者，That saying of the ancients that 'the partial becomes complete'
岂虚言哉！ was not vainly spoken:
诚全而归之。 - all real completion is comprehended under it.
