[Original]
Tao can be Tao, but it is not constant. The name can be named (3), but it is not a constant name. Unknown 4, the beginning of everything; The famous ⑤, the mother of all things ⑤. Therefore, there is no desire to be constant to see its embarrassment; There is always a desire to see what it is. The two are the same, but their names are different and they are the same as participation. Mysterious is mysterious, and many people's doors are mysterious.
[translation]
If Tao can be expressed in words, it is often Tao (Tao can be expressed in words, but it is not ordinary Tao); If a "name" can be named by words, it is a constant "name" ("name" can also be explained, it is not an ordinary "name") and "nothing" can be used to describe the situation when the world is in chaos. And "you" is the name of the origin of all things in the universe. Therefore, we should always observe and understand the mystery of Tao from "nothing"; We should always observe and understand the clues of "Tao" from the perspective of "being" and "being", which have the same origin and different names, and can be called profound and profound. It is not a general mystery, but profound and profound, and it is the general door of the mysteries of the universe (from the mystery of "name" to the intangible mystery, "Tao" is the door to understand all the changes of mysteries).
chapter two
[Original]
Everyone knows that beauty is beauty and evil is (1); Everyone knows it is good, but he is not good at it. Whether there is a phase or not is also 3, the difficulty is also complementary, the length is also 4, the competition is also 5, and the sound sum is also 6, which is consistent with each other. It is based on the sage's inaction ⑦, the teaching without words, the beginning of everything, and the determination to win. The husband only stayed at home, but the husband went.
[translation]
Everyone knows that beauty is because of ugliness. Everyone knows that good is good, because there is evil. Therefore, there is mutual transformation between existence and non-existence, mutual formation between difficulty and easiness, mutual presentation of length and breadth, mutual complementarity of height and breadth, harmony of sound and sound, and continuity-this is eternity. Therefore, the sage treats the world with a view of inaction and educates the world in a silent way: let everything go with the flow without starting, do something without adding their own tendencies, and succeed without pretending to be themselves. Just because you don't take credit, there is no loss.
chapter three
[Original]
Do not be a sage, so that the people do not dispute; Expensive goods can live in 2, making people not thieves 3; Don't see what you want, so the people won't be confused. It is ruled by saints, which can empty their hearts, strengthen their bellies, weaken their aspirations, strengthen their bones, and constantly make the people ignorant and have no desire. If you let your husband know that you can't be 7, you can only be 7, and you will be fine.
[translation]
Do not admire talented people and guide people not to compete with each other; Do not cherish rare property and guide people not to steal; If you don't show off what is enough to cause greed, you won't be confused. Therefore, the sage's principle of governing the country is: emptying people's hearts, filling people's stomachs, weakening people's competitive intentions, and strengthening people's bones and muscles, which often makes people have no desire or desire. That those smart people dare not do anything. Sages do things on the principle of "inaction" and conform to nature, so genius will not be restless.
chapter four
[Original]
Daochong (1) is used with Fu Ying (2). Deep! Like the father of all things. V. v. v. v. v. v. v. v. v. v. v. v. v. v. v. v. v. v. v. v. v. v. v. v. v. Janha pet-name ruby! Like or exist, participate. I don't know whose son he is, like the first emperor.
[translation]
The road is empty, and the function is endless. Far-reaching influence! It's like the ancestor of all things. Kill its sharpness, remove its disturbance, harmonize its light and confuse its dirt. Disappear, it seems to exist. I don't know whose descendant it is, but it seems to be the ancestor of the Emperor of Heaven.
chapter five
[Original]
Heaven and earth are ruthless, and everything is a grass dog; Saints are ruthless and treat people like pigs. Between heaven and earth, is it still ambiguous? Virtual and unyielding, dynamic and relaxed. Listen to a few poor people, but don't stay in the middle.
[translation]
There is no goodness in heaven and earth. It has no kindness. It treats everything like a dog and lets everything go. Sages have no compassion, but also treat people like pigs, leaving them to fend for themselves. Isn't it like a bellows between heaven and earth? Empty and inexhaustible, the more encouragement, the greater the wind, endless. Many laws and regulations are even more confusing and unworkable, so it is better to be quiet.
Chapter vi
[Original]
Fairy Gu (1) refers to Xuanzang (2). The gate of Xuanzang is the root of heaven and earth. Continuous! If there is (5)! Do not use it.
[translation]
The Tao (Valley God) that nourishes everything in the world is eternal, which is the so-called mysterious motherhood. The birth door of the mysterious mother is the foundation of heaven and earth. Endless! It is so constant and has endless functions.
Chapter VII
[Original]
Forever and ever. Heaven and earth can live forever because they are not born by themselves, so they can live forever. Is it based on the sage's being in front of himself and being outside, not on his selfless evil? Therefore, it can be private.
[translation]
Forever, heaven and earth can exist for a long time because they don't run naturally for their own survival, so they can exist for a long time. Therefore, a sage who has the means can stay ahead of others only by being modest and striving for second best; Only by keeping yourself out of it can you save your own survival. Isn't that because he is selfless? Only in this way can he achieve himself.
