Chapter 44
第四十四章
Or fame or life, Which do you hold more dear?
名與身孰親？
Or life or wealth, To which would you adhere?
身與貨孰多？
Keep life and lose those other things; Keep them and lose your life:--which brings Sorrow and pain more near?
得與亡孰病？
Thus we may see, Who cleaves to fame Rejects what is more great;
甚愛必大費，
Who loves large stores Gives up the richer state.
多藏必厚亡。
Who is content Needs fear no shame.
故知足不辱，
Who knows to stop Incurs no blame.
知止不殆，
From danger free Long live shall he.
可以長久。
