(Guarding the minute)
其安易持，That which is at rest is easily kept hold of;
其未兆易謀。before a thing has given indications of its presence, it is easy to take measures against it;
其脆易泮， that which is brittle is easily broken;
其微易散。 that which is very small is easily dispersed.
為之於未有， Action should be taken before a thing has made its appearance;
治之於未亂。 order should be secured before disorder has begun.
合抱之木，The tree which fills the arms
生於毫末； grew from the tiniest sprout;
九層之臺，the tower of nine storeys
起於累土； rose from a (small) heap of earth;
千里之行，the journey of a thousand li
始於足下。 commenced with a single step.
為者敗之，He who acts (with an ulterior purpose) does harm;
執者失之。 he who takes hold of a thing (in the same way) loses his hold.
是以聖人無為故無敗；The sage does not act (so), and therefore does no harm;
無執故無失。he does not lay hold (so), and therefore does not lose his bold.
民之從事，(But) people in their conduct of affairs
常於幾成而敗之。 are constantly ruining them when they are on the eve of success.
慎終如始，If they were careful at the end, as (they should be) at the beginning,
則無敗事， they would not so ruin them.
是以聖人欲不欲，Therefore the sage desires what (other men) do not desire,
不貴難得之貨； and does not prize things difficult to get;
學不學， he learns what (other men) do not learn,
復衆人之所過， and turns back to what the multitude of men have passed by.
以輔萬物之自然， Thus he helps the natural development of all things,
而不敢為。 and does not dare to act (with an ulterior purpose of his own).
