Hsio R. / 4

曾子曰,吾日三省吾身,为人谋,而不忠乎,与朋友交,而不信乎,传不习乎。

Modern Chinese Guide

曾子说:我每天多次反省自己:替别人办事有没有不尽心?和朋友交往有没有不诚信?老师传授的道理有没有认真温习实践?

James Legge Translation

The philosopher Tsang said, "I daily examine myself on three points:—whether, in transacting business for others, I may have been not faithful;—whether, in intercourse with friends, I may have been not sincere;—whether I may have not mastered and practised the instructions of my teacher."
