子張曰：Zi-zhang said,
「子不為行， 'If you do not follow the usual course of what is held to be right,
即將疏戚無倫， but observe no distinction between the near and remote degrees of kin,
貴賤無義， no difference between the noble and the mean,
長幼無序， no order between the old and the young,
五紀六位將何以為別乎？」then how shall a separation be made of the fivefold arrangement (of the virtues), and the six parties (in the social organisation)?'
滿苟得曰： Man Gou-de replied,
「堯殺長子， 'Yao killed his eldest son,
舜流母弟， and Shun banished his half-brother':
疏戚有倫乎？ did they observe the rules about the different degrees of kin?
湯放桀， Tang deposed Jie;
武王伐紂， king Wu overthrew Zhou:
貴賤有義乎？ did they observe the righteousness that should obtain between the noble and the mean?
王季為適， King Ji took the place of his elder brother,
周公殺兄， and the duke of Zhou killed his:
長幼有序乎？ did they observe the order that should obtain between the elder and the younger?
儒者偽辭， The Literati make hypocritical speeches;
墨者兼愛， the followers of Mo hold that all should be loved equally:
五紀六位將有別乎？do we find in them the separation of the fivefold arrangement (of the virtues), and the six parties (in the social organisation)?
且子正為名，And further, you, Sir, are all for reputation,
我正為利。 and I am all for gain;
名利之實，but where the actual search for reputation and gain
不順於理，may not be in accordance with principle
不監於道。 and will not bear to be examined in the light of the right way,
吾日與子訟於無約， let me and you refer the matter to-morrow to the decision of Wu-yue.'
曰： (This Wu-yue) said,
『小人殉財， 'The small man pursues after wealth;
君子殉名。 the superior man pursues after reputation.
其所以變其情，易其性，則異矣； The way in which they change their feelings and alter their nature is different;
乃至於棄其所為而殉其所不為，but if they were to cast away what they do, and replace it with doing nothing,
則一也。』 they would be the same.
故曰： Hence it is said,
無為小人， "Do not be a small man
反殉而天；- return and pursue after the Heavenly in you.
無為君子， Do not be a superior man
從天之理。- follow the rule of the Heavenly in you.
若枉若直，Be it crooked, be it straight,
相而天極， view the thing in the light of Heaven as revealed in you.
面觀四方， Look all round on every side of it,
與時消息。and as the time indicates, cease your endeavours.
若是若非，Be it right, be it wrong,
執而圓機， hold fast the ring in yourself in which all conditions converge.
獨成而意，Alone by yourself, carry out your idea;
與道徘徊。 ponder over the right way.
無轉而行， Do not turn your course;
無成而義， do not try to complete your righteousness.
將失而所為。 You will fail in what you do.
無赴而富， Do not haste to be rich;
無殉而成， do not follow after your perfection.
將棄而天。If you do, you will lose the heavenly in you."
比干剖心， Bi-gan had his heart cut out;
子胥抉眼， Zi-xu had his eyes gouged out:
忠之禍也； such were the evil consequences of their loyalty.
直躬證父， The upright person bore witness against his father;
尾生溺死， Wei Sheng was drowned:
信之患也； such were the misfortunes of good faith.
鮑子立乾， Bao-zi stood till he was dried up;
申子不自理， Shan-zi would not defend himself:
廉之害也； such were the injuries brought on by disinterestedness.
孔子不見母， Confucius did not see his mother;
匡子不見父， Kuang-zi did not see his father:
義之失也。 such were the failures of the righteous.
此上世之所傳， These are instances handed down from former ages,
下世之所語， and talked about in these later times.
以為士者正其言，They show us how superior men, in their determination to be correct in their words
必其行， and resolute in their conduct,
故服其殃， paid the penalty of these misfortunes,
離其患也。」 and were involved in these distresses.'
