颜渊 / 10

子张问崇德,辨惑。子曰,主忠信,徒义,崇德也。爱之欲其生,恶之欲其死,既欲其生,又欲其死,是惑也。诚不以富亦祇以异。

白话导读

子张请教怎样提高道德、辨别迷惑。孔子说:以忠信为主,行事一心向着道义,这就能提高道德。喜爱一个人时就希望他活着,厌恶他时又希望他死去;既要他活,又要他死,这就是迷惑。这样做,即使不是因为财富,也只会招来别人的怪异罢了。

James Legge 英译

1. Tsze-chang having asked how virtue was to be exalted, and delusions to be discovered, the Master said, "Hold faithfulness and sincerity as first principles, and be moving continually to what is right;—this is the way to exalt one's virtue. 2. "You love a man and wish him to live; you hate him and wish him to die. Having wished him to live, you also wish him to die. This is a case of delusion. 3. "'It may not be on account of her being rich, yet you come to make a difference.'"
