當帝堯之時，鴻水滔天，浩浩懷山襄陵，下民其憂。In the time of the Emperor Yao the deluge assailed the heavens, and in its vast expanse encompassed the mountains, and overtopped the hills, so that the common people were troubled about it.
堯求能治水者， Yao sought for one capable of controlling the waters.
群臣四嶽皆曰鯀可。All the officials and presidents of the four mountains said, 'Gun might do it.'
堯曰： Yao said,
「鯀為人負命毀族，'Gun is a man who disobeys orders, and ruins his companions.
不可。」 He will not do.'
四嶽曰：「等之未有賢於鯀者，願帝試之。」The president of the four mountains said, 'Among his equals there is no one so worthy as Gun; I wish your Majesty would try him.'
於是堯聽四嶽，Upon which Yao, giving heed to the president of the four mountains,
用鯀治水。employed Gun to control the waters
九年而水不息，for nine years, but the waters did not abate,
功用不成。 and the work was unaccomplished.
於是帝堯乃求人，更得舜。Then the Emperor Yao sought a man in his stead, and secured Shun.
舜登用，攝行天子之政，巡狩。Shun being employed in the public service was associated with the Son of Heaven in the administration.
行視鯀之治水無狀，While on a tour of inspection, he saw that there was no evidence that Gun kept the waters under control,
乃殛鯀於羽山以死。 so he imprisoned him for life on Mount Yu,
天下皆以舜之誅為是。 and everyone in the Empire said that Shun's decision was a just one.
於是舜舉鯀子禹， Shun then appointed Gun's son Yu to the post,
而使續鯀之業。 and directed him to continue his father's occupation.
