老子道德经(英译本)Lao Tze 63. Difficulty

作者:《Lao Tze》李耳

  • Practice no-action;
    Attend to do-nothing;
    Taste the flavorless,
    Magnify the small,
    Multiply the few,
    Return love for hate.

    Deal with the difficult while it is yet easy;
    Deal with the great while it is yet small;

    The difficult develops naturally from the easy,
    And the great from the small;
    So the sage, by dealing with the small,
    Achieves the great.

    Who finds it easy to promise finds it hard to be trusted;
    Who takes things lightly finds things difficult;
    The sage recognizes difficulty, and so has none.
