--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
二章
天下皆知美之为美，斯恶已；
皆知善之为善，斯不善矣。
有无相生，难易相成，长短相形，高下相盈，音声相和，前后相随，恒也。
是以圣人
处无为之事，行不言之教，万物作而弗始，生而弗有，为而弗恃，功成而弗居。
夫唯弗居，是以不去。
WhenthepeopleoftheEarthallknowbeautyasbeauty,
Therearises（therecognitionof）ugliness.
WhenthepeopleoftheEarthallknowthegoodasgood,

三章
不尚贤，使民不争；
不贵难得之货，使民不为盗；
不见可欲，使民心不乱。
是以圣人之治，虚其心，实其腹；
弱其志，强其骨。
常使民无知无
欲。
使夫知不敢弗为而已，则无不治。

四章
道冲，而用之或不盈。
渊兮，似万物之宗。
挫其锐，解其纷，和其光，同其尘。
湛兮，似或存。
吾不知谁之子，象帝之先。

五章
天地不仁，以万物为刍狗；
圣人不仁，以百姓为刍狗。
天地之间，其犹橐龠乎虚而不屈，动而愈出。
多闻数穷，不如守中。
Natureisunkind:

谷神不死，是谓玄牝。
玄牝之门，是谓天地根。
绵绵若存，用之不勤。

Continuously,continuously,

Anditservesyouwithease.
七章
天长地久。
天地所以能长且久者，以其不自生，故能长生。
是以圣人后其身而身先，外其身而身存。
不以其无私邪故能成其私。

八章
上善若水。
水善利万物而不争，居众人之所恶，故几于道。
居善地，心善渊，与善仁，言善信，政善治，事善能，动善时。
夫唯不争，故无尤
。
Thebestofmenislikewater;

九章
持而盈之，不如其已。
揣而锐之，不可长保。
金玉满堂，莫之能守。
富贵而骄，自遗其咎。
功遂身退，天下之道。

十章
载营魄抱一，能无离乎专气致柔，能如婴儿乎修除玄览，能无疵乎爱民治国，能无智乎天门开阖，能为雌乎明白四达，能无知乎
生之、畜之，生而不有，长而不宰。
是为玄德。

十一章
三十辐共一毂，当其无，有车之用。
埏埴以为器，当其无，有器之用。
凿户牖以为室，当其无，有室之用。
故有之以为利，无之以为用。

十二章
五色令人目盲；
五音令人耳聋；
五味令人口爽；
驰骋畋猎，令人心发狂；
难得之货，令人行妨。
是以圣人为腹不为目，故去彼取此。

十三章
宠辱若惊，贵大患若身。
何谓宠辱若惊宠为下，得之若惊，失之若惊，是谓宠辱若惊。
何谓贵大患若身吾所以有大患者，为吾有身，及吾
无身，吾有何患故贵以身为天下，若可寄天下；
爱以身为天下，若可托天下。

十四章
视之不见，名曰微；
听之不闻，名曰希；
搏之不得，名曰夷。
此三者，不可致诘，故混而为一。
其上不皎，其下不昧，绳绳兮不可名，复归于
物。
是谓无状之状，无物之象，是谓惚恍。
迎之不见其首，随之不见其后。
执古之道，以御今之有。
能知古始，是谓道纪。

十五章
古之善为道者，微妙玄通，深不可识。
夫唯不可识，故强为之容：
豫兮，若冬涉川；
犹兮，若畏四邻；
俨兮，其若客；
涣兮，其若凌释；
敦兮
，其若朴；
旷兮，其若谷；
混兮，其若浊。
孰能浊以止静之徐清。
孰能安以久动之徐生。
保此道者，不欲盈。
夫唯不盈，故能蔽而新成。
