子曰,道千乘之国,敬事而信,节用而爱人,使民以时。

孔子说:治理拥有千辆兵车的国家,要敬慎办事而守信用,节约用度而爱护人民,使用民力要合乎农时。

James Legge Translation

The Master said, To rule a country of a thousand chariots, there must be reverent attention to business, and sincerity; economy in expenditure, and love for men; and the employment of the people at the proper seasons."
