《盡心上 - Jin Xin I》 | Library Resources |
32 | 盡心上: | 公孫丑曰:「《詩》曰:『不素餐兮』,君子之不耕而食,何也?」 |
Jin Xin I: | Gong Sun Chou said, 'It is said, in the Book of Poetry, "He will not eat the bread of idleness!" How is it that we see superior men eating without labouring?' | |
孟子曰:「君子居是國也,其君用之,則安富尊榮;其子弟從之,則孝弟忠信。『不素餐兮』,孰大於是?」 | ||
Mencius replied, 'When a superior man resides in a country, if its sovereign employ his counsels, he comes to tranquillity, wealth and glory. If the young in it follow his instructions, they become filial, obedient to their elders, true-hearted, and faithful. What greater example can there be than this of not eating the bread of idleness?' |
