Le Jin / 2

子曰，不仁者，不可以久处约，不可以长处乐，仁者安仁，知者利仁。

Modern Chinese Guide

孔子说：没有仁德的人，不能长久地安处在穷困中，也不能长久地安处在安乐中。有仁德的人安于仁德，有智慧的人则懂得仁德对己有利而实行仁德。

James Legge Translation

The Master said, "Those who are without virtue cannot abide long either in a condition of poverty and hardship, or in a condition of enjoyment. The virtuous rest in virtue; the wise desire virtue."
