Hsien Wan / 17

子路曰，桓公杀公子纠，召忽死之，管仲不死。曰，未仁乎。子曰，桓公九合诸侯，不以兵车，管仲之力也。如其仁。如其仁。

Modern Chinese Guide

子路说：桓公杀了公子纠，召忽为此自杀殉主，管仲却没有死。这样看来，管仲算是没有仁德吧？孔子说：桓公多次会合诸侯，不靠武力，都是管仲的功劳。这就是他的仁德，这就是他的仁德。

James Legge Translation

1. 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?"
