Hsien Wan / 33

子曰，不逆诈，不亿不信，抑亦先觉者，是贤乎。

Modern Chinese Guide

孔子说：不预先怀疑别人欺诈，不凭空猜测别人不诚信，却能事先觉察到，这才是贤明的吧！

James Legge Translation

The Master said, "He who does not anticipate attempts to deceive him, nor think beforehand of his not being believed, and yet apprehends these things readily (when they occur);—is he not a man of superior worth?"
