　　So　the　ability　to　act　as　the　king　of　one　hundredvalleys　happens。

　　Appropriately　it　happens　that
　　Desire　to　be　above　people　seeds　the　occurrence　ofwords　being　low
　　Desire　to　precede　people　seeds　the　occurrence　ofthe　body　following
　　Appropriately　it　happens　that　sages
　　Dwell　above　yet　people　lack　heaviness
　　Dwell　in　front　yet　people　are　without　being　heldback
　　Appropriately　it　happens
　　That　the　world　joyfully　supports　them　yet　withouttiring。

　　It　happens　they　lack　contention
　　So　in　the　world　noone　is　able　to　be　contending　with　them。

　　67

　　In　the　world　each　says
　　My　tao　is　great　and　seems　to　lack　resemblance
　　In　the　end　only　great　therefore　seems　to　lack　resemblance。
　　It　looks　like　resemblance　goes　with　the　long…lasting
　　With　what　is　tiny　as　well。

　　In　the　end　I　possess　three　principles　I　am　obtaining　yet　defending
　　One；　say　compassion
　　Two；　say　thrift
　　Three　say　lack　of　venturing　to　act　to　precede　theworld。

　　Compassion；　so　be　able　to　be　brave
　　Thrift；　so　be　able　to　expand
　　Lack　venturing　to　act　to　precede　the　world
　　So　be　able　to　perfect　tools　of　growth。

　　Right　now；　abandon　compassion　just　to　be　brave
　　Abandon　thrift　just　to　expand
　　Abandon　being　behind　just　to　precede
　　Death　goes　with　these。

　　In　the　end　with　compassion
　　A　war　happens　and　next　comes　conquering
　　Keeping　to　it　happens　and　next　comes　solidity。

　　The　heavens　attain　helping
　　It　happens　that　compassion　is　defending。

　　68

　　Those　who　value　acting　as　sergeants　lack　ferocity
　　Those　who　value　war　lack　anger
　　Those　who　value　conquering　lack　engagement
　　Those　who　value　using　men　are　acting　low。

　　Appropriately　called　ideal　of　lacking　being　contending
　　Appropriately　called　strength　to　be　using　men
　　Appropriately　called　distributing　the　ancient　limit　of　the　heavens。

　　69

　　Strategists　possess　words
　　I　am　without　venturing　to　act　as　lord　yet　act　asguest
　　Without　venturing　to　enter　an　inch　yet　fall　backa　foot。

　　Appropriately　called
　　Going　absent　of　going
　　Grabbing　absent　of　an　arm
　　Throwing　absent　of　opposition
　　Taking　hold　of　absent　of　an　enemy。

　　No　misfortune　is　greater　than　relating　to　light　opposition
　　Light　opposition　severs　and　destroys　my　principles。

　　So　when　opposing　strategies　escalate　each　other
　　Conquering　goes　with　those　who　mourn。

　　70

　　My　words
　　Are　very　easy　to　know
　　Are　very　easy　to　practice。
　　In　the　world
　　Noone　is　able　to　know
　　Noone　is　able　to　practice。

　　Words　possess　an　ancestor
　　Efforts　possess　a　sovereign。

　　In　the　end　only　with　absence　of　knowledge
　　Appropriate　lack　of　self…knowledge　happens
　　Knowledge　of　that　which　is　the　self　is　rare
　　And　then　that　which　is　the　self　is　treasured。

　　Appropriately　it　happens　that　sages　have
　　A　covering　of　coarse　cloth
　　A　bosom　of　jade。

　　71

　　Knowing；　lack　of　knowing
　　Better；　lack　of　knowing
　　Knowing；　a　disease。

　　In　the　end　only　when　the　disease　is　sick
　　Appropriate　lack　of　the　disease　happens。
　　Sages　lack　the　disease
　　It　happens　the　disease　was　sick。

　　Appropriately　lack　of　the　disease　happens。

　　72

　　People　lack　respect　for　impressive　strength
　　And　then　greatly　impressive　strength　is　reached。

　　An　absence　of　improper　familiarity　for　what　is　their　place　of　residence
　　An　absence　of　detesting　what　is　their　place　of　living
　　In　the　end　only　without　detesting
　　Appropriate　lack　of　detesting　happens。

　　Appropriately　it　happens　that　sages
　　Know　themselves　without　displaying　themselves
　　Are　fond　of　themselves　without　treasuring　themselves。

　　So　detach　from　that；　grab　this。

　　73

　　Bravery　in　relation　to　venturing；　next　comes　being　killed
　　Bravery　in　relation　to　lack　of　venturing；　next　comes　being　mobile
　　Each　of　these　two　benefits　some；　harms　some。
　　The　place　of　the　heaves　dislikes
　　Who　knows　why　it　is　so？

　　Appropriately　it　happens　that　sages　see　it　just　as　difficult。

　　The　tao　of　the　heavens
　　Without　contending　yet　values　conquering
　　Without　words　yet　values　responding
　　Without　summoning　yet　attracts　to　itself
　　Is　easy…natured　yet　values　a　place　for　everything。

　　The　net　of　the　heavens　is　vast；　expansive
　　A　coarse　mesh　yet　without　loss。

　　74

　　When　people　lack　respect　for　death
　　How　does　it　happen　that　death　looks　threatening？
　　Suppose　people　entirely　respect　death
　　Yet　there　are　those　who　act　strange。
　　I　may　obtain　hold　of　them　yet　who　would　venture　to　be　killing　them？

　　Entireness　possesses　that　which　is　the　master　killer；　killing。
　　In　the　end　taking　the　place
　　Of　that　which　is　the　master　killer；　killing
　　Is　appropriately　called
　　Taking　the　place　of　the　great　carpenter；　carving。

　　In　the　end　take　the　place　of　the　great　carpenter；　carving
　　It　is　rarely　true　that　a　lack　of　wounding　the　hand　goes　with　this。

　　75

　　The　hunger　of　people
　　It　happens　that　those　above　feed　by　taxing　abundantly
　　Appropriately　hunger　happens。

　　The　difficulty　in　governing　people
　　It　happens　that　those　above　possess　action
　　Appropriately　the　difficulty　in　governing　happens。

　　The　lightness　of　people　at　death
　　It　happens　that　those　above　reach　for　the　thicknessof　life
　　Appropriately　lightness　at　death　happens。

　　In　the　end　only　those　who　are　absent　of　acting　to　live
　　Are　appropriately　wise　in　relating　to　treasuring　life。

　　76

　　The　life　of　man　is　also　yielding；　weak
　　His　death　is　also　rigid；　unyielding。
　　The　10000　things；　the　grass　and　trees
　　Their　living　is　also　yielding；　fragile
　　Their　dying　is　also　dried　up；　withered。
　　So　that　which　is　rigid；　unyielding　is　the　pupil　of　dying
　　That　which　is　yielding；　weak　is　the　pupil　of　living

　　Appropriately　it　happens　that
　　With　unyielding　soldiers；　next　comes　lack　of　conquering
　　With　an　unyielding　tree；　next　comes　being　attacked。

　　Dwelling　in　the　unyielding　and　great　is　worse
　　Dwelling　in　the　yielding　and　supple　is　better。

　　77

　　The　tao　of　the　heavens；　it　is　just　like　opening　up　a　bow
　　With　that　which　towers　being　restrained
　　That　which　is　lowered　being　lifted
　　That　which　has　surplus　being　decreased
　　That　which　lacks　enough　being　supplemented。

　　The　tao　of　the　heavens
　　Decreasing　in　the　presence　of　surplus
　　Yet　supplementing　what　lacks　enough。

　　The　tao　of　man；　and　then　it　lacks　being　so
　　Reducing　what　lacks　enough
　　Coming　to　esteem　the　presence　of　surplus。

　　Who　is　able　to　come　to　esteem　presence　of　surplus　in　the　world？
　　Only　those　present　with　tao。

　　Appropriately　it　happens　that　sages
　　Act　yet　without　relying
　　Are　of　outstanding　service　yet　without　dwellingtherein

　　They　lack　desire　to　display　principles。

　　78

　　In　the　world　nothing　is　supple　and　weak　in　relation　to　water
　　Yet　of　those　things　which　attack　the　firm　and　unyielding
　　Nothing　is　able　to　do　better
　　In　what　is　absent；　this　easily　happens。

　　Being　supple　conquers　the　unyielding
　　Being　weak　conquers　the　firm
　　In　the　world
　　Noone　is　without　knowing　it
　　Noone　is　able　to　practice　it。

　　Appropriately　it　happens　that　sages　say
　　He　who　accepts　the　disgrace　of　a　nation
　　Is　appropriately　called　lord　of　the　grain　shrine
　　He　who　accepts　the　misfortune　of　a　nation
　　Is　appropriately　acting　as　the　king　of　the　world。

　　Correct　words　look　like　they　turn　back。

　　79

　　Harmonize　great　resentment
　　Seed　the　presence　of　a　surplus　of　resentment
　　How　can　valuing　actions　happen　peacefully？

　　Appropriately　it　happens　that　sages
　　Take　hold　of　the　left　of　a　contract
　　Yet　lack　censure　in　relating　to　men。
　　Presence　of　ideal　controls　the　agreement
　　Absence　of　ideal　controls　its　resolution。

　　The　tao　of　heaven　is　absent　of　favorites
　　It　is　entirely　with　the　valuing　man。

　　80

　　A　tiny　nation；　few　people
　　Suppose　the　presence　of　10　or　one　hundred　times　too　many　tools
