Hsien Tsin / 18

子曰，回也其庶乎屡空。赐不受命，而货殖焉，亿则屡中。

James Legge Translation

1. The Master said, "There is Hui! He has nearly attained to perfect virtue. He is often in want. 2. "Ts'ze does not acquiesce in the appointments of Heaven, and his goods are increased by him. Yet his judgments are often correct."
