法家:《商君书》中的句子,充满哲理!双语互译

《商君书》是法家的一部重要作品,现在我们用汉英两个版本来欣赏一下!


​ 1.且夫有高人之行者,固见负于世;有独知之虑者,必见骜于民。

Besides, people with higher status than ordinary people would be criticized by secular society. A person who is unique in seeing and thinking must be laughed at by ordinary people.

何况具有超出普通人的高明人,本来就会被世俗社会所非议。独一无二见识思考的人,也一定遭到平常人的嘲笑。

2.愚者暗于成事,知者见于未萌。

Fools do not understand after they have done things, and wise men anticipate things before they appear.

3.民不可与虑始,而可与乐成。

People, instead of discussing innovation with them, can celebrate success with them.

百姓,不可以同他们讨论开始创新,却能够同他们一起欢庆事业的成功。

4.郭偃之法曰:论至德者不和于俗,成大功者不谋于众。

Guo yan's legal book said: pay attention to the high moral people, do not echo those secular prejudices. Those who accomplish great things do not consult the people.

郭偃的法书上说:讲究崇高道德的人,不去附和那些世俗的偏见。成就大事业的人,不去同民众商量。


5.法者所以爱民也,礼者所以便事也。

Dharma is used to love the people. Etiquette is for the convenience of doing things.

法度,是用来爱护百姓的。礼制,是为了方便办事的。翻译的怎么样?欢迎多多评论!
