(Practising the Dao)
道者萬物之奧。Dao has of all things the most honoured place.
善人之寶，No treasures give good men so rich a grace;
不善人之所保。Bad men it guards, and doth their ill efface.
美言可以市，(Its) admirable words can purchase honour;
尊行可以加人。 (its) admirable deeds can raise their performer above others.
人之不善，Even men who are not good
何棄之有？ are not abandoned by it.
故立天子，Therefore when the sovereign occupies his place as the Son of Heaven,
置三公， and he has appointed his three ducal ministers,
雖有拱璧以先駟馬，though (a prince) were to send in a round symbol-of-rank large enough to fill both the hands, and that as the precursor of the team of horses (in the court-yard),
不如坐進此道。such an offering would not be equal to (a lesson of) this Dao, which one might present on his knees.
古之所以貴此道者何？Why was it that the ancients prized this Dao so much?
不曰：以求得， Was it not because it could be got by seeking for it,
有罪以免耶？ and the guilty could escape (from the stain of their guilt) by it?
故為天下貴。This is the reason why all under heaven consider it the most valuable thing.
