子墨子曰：Mozi said:
古之民， Primitive people,
未知為宮
室1時，		 before the art of building houses and palaces was known,
就陵阜而居，lingered by the mounds
穴而處， and lived in caves.
下潤濕傷民， It was damp and injurious to health.
故聖王作為宮室。 Thereupon the sage-kings built houses and palaces.
為宮室之法，曰： The guiding principles for these buildings were these:
室2
高足以辟潤濕， The house shall be built high enough to avoid the damp and moisture;
邊足以圉風寒， the walls thick enough to keep out the wind and cold;
上足以待雪霜雨露，the roof strong enough to stand snow, frost, rain, and dew;
宮牆之高，and the walls in the palace high enough
足以別男女之禮， to observe the propriety of the sexes.
謹此則止。 These are sufficient,
費
凡3財勞力，		and any expenditure of money and energy
不加利者，that does not bring additional utility
不為也。 shall not be permitted.
役，脩其城郭，則民勞而不傷；以其常正，收其租稅，則民費而不病。民所苦者非此也，苦於厚作斂於百姓。4		 When the city walls are repaired with regular labour, the people may feel tired but there is no exhaustion. When taxes are collected according to custom, the people may be deprived of some money but there is no bitterness. The real woe of the people does not lie here, it lies in heavy taxes.
是故聖王作為宮室，The sage-kings built houses and palaces
便於生，in order to better the living conditions
不以為觀樂也。 and not for pleasures of sight.
作為衣服帶履，They made clothes and hats, belts and shoes
便於身，in order to protect the body
不以為辟怪也， and not for novelty.
故節於身，They were thrifty themselves
誨於民， and taught the people to be the same.
是以天下之民可得而治，And so, the people in the whole world became orderly
財用可得而足。 and wealth was sufficient for use.
