Hsio R. / 6

子曰,弟子,入则孝,出则弟,谨而信,凡爱众,而亲仁,行有余力,则以学文。

Modern Chinese Guide

孔子说:年轻人在家要孝顺父母,出门要敬爱兄长;做事谨慎,说话诚信;广泛地爱众人,亲近有仁德的人。这样做了还有余力,就用来学习文献礼乐。

James Legge Translation

The Master said, "A youth, when at home, should be filial, and, abroad, respectful to his elders. He should be earnest and truthful. He should overflow in love to all, and cultivate the friendship of the good. When he has time and opportunity, after the performance of these things, he should employ them in polite studies."
