The Master asked Kung-ming Chia about Kung-shu Wan, saying, "Is it true that your master speaks not, laughs not, and takes not?"
子問公叔文子于公明賈曰：“信乎，夫子不言，不笑，不取乎？”
Kung-ming Chia replied, "This has arisen from the reporters going beyond the truth. My master speaks when it is the time to speak, and so men do not get tired of his speaking;
公明賈對曰：“以告者過也。夫子時然后言，人不厭其言；
He laughs when there is occasion to be joyful, and so men do not get tired of his laughing;
樂然后笑，人不厭其笑；
He takes when it is consistent with righteousness to do so, and so men do not get tired of his taking."
義然后取，人不厭其取。”
The Master said, "So! But is it so with him?"
子曰：“其然？豈其然乎？”
The Master said, "Tsang Wu-chung, keeping possession of Fang, asked of the duke of Lu to appoint a successor to him in his family,
子曰：“臧武仲以防求為后于魯，
Although it may be said that he was not using force with his sovereign, I believe he was."
雖曰不要君，吾不信也?！?/div>
The Master said, "The duke Wan of Tsin was crafty and not upright, the duke Hwan of Ch'i was upright and not crafty."
子曰：“晉文公譎而不正，齊桓公正而不譎?！?/div>
Tsze-lu said, "The Duke Hwan caused his brother Chiu to be killed, when Shao Hu died, with his master, but Kwan Chung did not die. May not I say that he was wanting in virtue?"
子路曰：“桓公殺公子糾，召忽死之，管仲不死。曰未仁乎？”
The Master said, "The Duke Hwan assembled all the princes together, and that not with weapons of war and chariots, it was all through the influence of Kwan Chung.
子曰：“桓公九合諸侯不以兵車，管仲之力也。
Whose beneficence was like his? Whose beneficence was like his?"
如其仁，如其仁！”
