道德经中英文对照版
第一章道可道,非常道。
名可名,非常名。
无名天地之始,有名万物之母。
故常无欲以观其妙;常有欲以观其徼〔jiào〕。
此两者同出而异名,同谓之玄,玄之又玄,众妙之门。
Ifyoucantalkaboutit,
itain'tTao.
Ifithasaname,
it'sjustanotherthing.
Taodoesn'thaveaname.
Namesareforordinarythings.
Stopwantingstuff;
itkeepsyoufromseeingwhat'sreal.
Whenyouwantstuff,
allyouseearethings.
Thosetwosentences
meanthesamething.
Figurethemout,
andyou'vegotitmade.
第二章天下皆知美之为美,斯恶已。
皆知善之为善,斯不善已。
故有无相生,难易相成,长短相形,高低相倾,音声相和,前后相随。
是以圣人处无为之事,行不言之教;万物作焉而不辞,生而不有,为而不恃,功成而弗居。
夫唯弗居,是以不去。
Ifsomethinglooksbeautifultoyou,
somethingelsemustbeugly.
Ifsomethingseemsgood,
somethingelsemustseembad.
Youcan'thave
somethingwithoutnothing.
Ifnojobisdifficult,
thennojobiseasy.
Somethingsareuphigh
becauseotherthingsaredownlow.
Youknowyou'relisteningtomusic
becauseitdoesn'tsoundlikenoise.
Allthatcamefirst,
sothismustbenext.
TheMastersgetthejobdone
withoutmovingamuscle
andgettheirpointacross
withoutsayingaword.
Whenthingsaroundthemfallapart,

Theydon'townmuch,
buttheyusewhatever'sathand.
Theydothework
withoutexpectinganyfavors.
Whenthey'redone,
theymoveontothenextjob.
That'swhytheirworkissodamngood.
第三章不尚贤,使民不争;不贵难得之货,使民不为盗;不见〔xiàn〕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。
使夫智者不敢为也。
为无为,那么无不治。
Ifyoutosscomplimentsaroundfreely,
peoplewillwasteyourtime
tryingtoimpressyou.
Ifyougivethingstoomuchvalue,
you'regoingtogetrippedoff.
Ifyoutrytopleasepeople,
you'lljustmakethempissed.

sonobodycanpushyouaround.
Ifyouthinkyou'vegottheanswers,
he'llmesswithyourhead.
Stopdoingstuffallthetime,
andwatchwhathappens.
第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〔chén,通假字“沉〞〕兮似或存。
吾不知谁之子,象帝之先。
HowmuchTaoisthere?
Morethanyou'lleverneed.
Useallyouwant,
there'splentymore
wherethatcamefrom.
Youcan'tseeTao,butit'sthere.
DamnedifIknowwhereitcamefrom.
It'sjustalwaysbeenaround.
第五章天地不仁,以万物为刍〔chú〕狗;圣人不仁,以百姓为刍狗。
天地之间,其犹橐龠(tuóyuè)乎﹖虚而不屈,动而愈出。
多言数穷,不如守中。
Tao'sneutral:
itdoesn'tworryaboutgoodorevil.
TheMastersareneutral:
theytreateveryonethesame.
LaoTzusaidTaoislikeabellows:
It'sempty,
butitcouldhelpsettheworldonfire.
IfyoukeepusingTao,itworksbetter.
Ifyoukeeptalkingaboutit,
itwon'tmakeanysense.
Becool.
第六章谷神不死,是谓玄牝(pìn)。
玄牝之门,是谓天地根。
绵绵假设存,用之不勤。
Taoisaneternalmystery,
andeverythingstartswithTao.
EverybodyhasTaointhem.
Theyjusthavetouseit.
第七章天长地久。
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。
非以其无私邪〔yé〕,故能成其私。
Taoneverstops.Why?
Becauseitisn'ttryingtoaccomplishanything.
TheMastershangback.
That'swhythey'reaheadofthegame.
Theydon'thangontothings.
That'showtheymanagetokeepthem.
Theydon'tworry
aboutwhattheycan'tcontrol.
That'swhythey'realwayssatisfied.
第八章上善假设水。
水善利万物而不争,处众人之所恶〔wù〕,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。
"Doingtherightthing"islikewater.
It'sgoodforalllivingthings,andflowswithoutthinkingaboutwhereit'sgoing
...justlikeTao.
Keepyourfeetontheground.
Rememberwhat'simportant.
Betherewhenpeopleneedyou.
Saywhatyoumean.
Bepreparedforanything.
Dowhateveryoucan,
wheneveritneedsdoing.
Ifyoudon't
compareyourselftoothers,
nobodycancomparetoyou.
第九章持而盈之,不如其已;揣〔zhuī〕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,天之道也。
Ifyoudrinktoomuch,yougetdrunk.
Theenginewon'tstart
ifyou'realwaystinkeringwithit.
Ifyouhoardwealth,
youfallintoitsclutches.
Ifyoucravesuccess,
yousuccumbtofailure.
Dowhatyouhavetodo,
thenwalkaway.
Anythingelsewilldriveyounuts.
第十章载营魄抱一,能无离乎?
抟〔tuán〕气致柔,能婴儿乎?
涤除玄览〔jiàn〕,能无疵乎?
爱民治国,能无为乎?
天门开阖,能为雌乎?
明白四达,能无知乎?
生之畜〔xu〕之。
生而不有,为而不恃,长而不宰,是谓玄德。

第十一章三十辐共一毂(gǔ),当其无,有车之用。
埏埴(shānzhí)以为器,当其无,有器之用。
凿户牖〔yǒu〕以为室,当其无,有室之用。
故有之以为利,无之以为用。

Apotismadeoutofclayorglass,
butyoukeepthingsinthespaceinside.
Ahouseismadeofwoodorbrick,
butyoulivebetweenthewalls.
Weworkwithsomething,
butweusenothing.
第十二章五色令人目盲,五音令人耳聋,五味令人口爽,驰骋畋(tián)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。
Sightobscures.
Noisedeafens.
Desiremesseswithyourheart.
Theworldmesseswithyourmind.
AMasterwatchestheworld
butkeepsfocusedonwhat'sreal.
第十三章宠辱假设惊,贵大患假设身。
何谓宠辱假设惊?
宠为上,辱为下,得之假设惊,失之假设惊,是谓宠辱假设惊。
何谓贵大患假设身?
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,假设可寄天下;爱以身为天下,假设可托天下。

Therestwillfollow.
第十四章视之不见名曰夷,听之不出名曰希,搏之不得名曰微。
此三者,不可致诘,故混而为一。
其上不皦〔jiǎo〕,其下不昧。
绳绳(mǐnmǐn)不可名,复归于无物。
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。
Youcan'tseeTao,
nomatterhowhardyoulook.
Youcan'thearTao,
nomatterhowhardyoulisten.
Youcan'tholdontoTao,
nomatterhowhardyougrab.
Butit'sthere.

第十五章古之善为士者,微妙玄通,深不可识。
夫唯不可识,故强为之容:
豫兮假设冬涉川,犹兮假设畏四邻,俨兮其假设容,涣兮假设冰之将释,敦兮其假设朴,旷兮其假设谷,浑兮其假设浊。
澹兮其假设海;泊兮假设无止。
孰能浊以静之徐清?
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。
Keepyourheadclear.
Staycalm.
Watch
aseverythinghappensaroundyou.
Everythingreverts
toitsoriginalstate,
whichwasnothing.
Andwhensomethingbecomesnothing,
itgetsrightwithTao.
Ifyoudon'tunderstandthat,
you'regoingtoscrewup
somewheredowntheline.
Ifyoufigureitout,
you'llalwaysknowwhattodo.
IfyougetrightwithTao,
youwon'tbeafraidtodie,
becauseyouknowyouwill.
第十六章致虚极,守静笃〔dǔ〕。
万物并作,吾以观复。
夫物芸芸,各复归其根。
归根曰静,是谓复命。
复命曰常,知常曰明。
不知常,妄作凶。
知常容,容乃公,公乃王,王乃天,天乃道,道乃久,没身不殆。

第十七章太上,不知有之,其次亲而誉之,其次畏之,其次侮之。
信缺乏焉,有不信焉。
悠兮其贵言,功成事遂,百姓皆谓我自然。
WhenpeoplelosetouchwithTao,
theystarttalkingabout
"righteousness"and"sanctity."
Whenpeopleforgetwhat'strue,
theystarttalkingabout
"self-evidenttruths."
Whenpeoplehavenorespect
foroneanother,
theystarttalkingabout
"politicalcorrectness"
and"familyvalues."
Whenthenationisunstable,
peoplestarttalkingabout"patriotism."
第十八章大道废,有仁义;慧智出,有大伪;六亲不和,有孝慈;国家昏乱,有忠臣。

第十九章绝圣弃智,民利百倍;绝仁弃义,民复孝慈;绝巧弃利,盗贼无有。
此三者以为文缺乏,故令有所属。
见素抱朴,少私寡欲。
Getridofsanctity.
Peoplewillunderstandthetruth
andbehappier.
Getridofmorality.
Peoplewillrespecteachother

Ifthat'snotpossible,gotoPlanB:
Besimple.Bereal.
Doyourworkasbestyoucan.
Don'tthinkaboutwhatyougetforit.
Stayfocused.Getridofallyourcrap.
第二十章绝学无忧,唯之与阿,相去几何?
善之与恶,相去假设何?
人之所畏,不可不畏。
荒兮其未央哉!
众人熙熙,如享太牢,如春登台。
我独泊兮其未兆,如婴儿之未孩;累累兮,假设无所归。
众人皆有余,而我独假设遗。
我愚人之心也哉!
沌沌兮,俗人昭昭,我独昏昏。
俗人察察,我独闷闷。
澹兮其假设海,恍兮假设无止。
众人皆有以,而我独顽似鄙。
我独〔欲〕异于人,而贵食母。
