Original: fish, what I want; Bear's paw is what I want. You can't have both (jiān), and you can take the bear's paw instead of the fish. Life is also what I want; Righteousness is also what I want. You can't have both (jiān), and those who give up their lives for righteousness are also. Life is what I want, and I want more than the living, so I don't want it for (wéi) or (gǒu); Death is what I hate (WE), and what I hate (WE) is more than that of the dead, so I suffer from what I don't want (bì).

If people want nothing more than life, why not use those who can live? If people are more evil than the dead, why not (wéi) those who can be cured (bü)? If you are right, you will be born and have no need, and if you are right, you can avoid (b) suffering and have no need (wéi). Therefore, what you want is more than the living, and what you do is more evil than the dead. But with disdain to drink to eat, the hungry pedestrians are unwilling to accept; To kick others to eat with their feet, the beggars would not accept them.

Fish is what I want; Bear's paw is also what I want. These two things can't be obtained at the same time. I will give up fish and choose bear's paw. Life is also what I want; Morality is also what I want. These two things can't be obtained at the same time, and I will give up my life and choose morality.

Life is what I want, but there are things I want more than life, so I don't do anything to drag out an ignoble existence. Death is what I hate, but there are things more disgusting than death, so there are disasters (I) that I can't avoid. If people don't want anything more than life, then what can't be done with all the methods that can save life?

If there is nothing that people hate more than death, then what can't be done by any means that can avoid disaster? According to this method, you can survive without using it, and according to this method, you can avoid disaster without doing it.

It is because there is something more desirable than life (that is righteousness) and something more disgusting than death (that is injustice). Not only sages have this kind of thought, but everyone has this kind of thought. It's just that sages can keep their morals.
