Tending　to　relating　to　the　family
  Its　ideal　will　be　bubbling　over
  Tending　to　relating　to　the　community
  Its　ideal　will　be　growing
  Tending　to　relating　to　the　nation
  Its　ideal　will　be　abundant
  Tending　to　relating　to　the　world
  Its　ideal　will　be　everywhere。
  So　body　happens　seeing　body
  Family　happens　seeing　family
  Community　happens　seeing　community
  Nation　happens　seeing　nation
  World　happens　seeing　world。
  Why　does　it　happen　that　I　know　the　nature　of　the　world？
  This　just　happens。
  55
  Holding　the　richness　of　the　ideal　in　the　mouth
  Compares　to　relating　to　a　newborn　child。
  Poisonous　bugs　are　without　stinging
  Fierce　animals　are　without　grasping
  Birds　of　prey　are　without　pouncing。
  There　are　weak　bones　and　yielding　tendons；　yet　a　firm　grasp
  The　male　does　not　yet　know　union　with　the　female
  Yet　its　virility　is　strong
  It　has　essence　even　at　the　extreme。
  Screaming　all　day　yet　without　being　hoarse
  Harmonizing　even　at　the　extreme。
  Knowing　harmony　say　entireness
  Knowing　entireness　say　luminous
  In　accord　with　giving　birth　say　happy
  The　mind　results　in　animus；　say　strong。
  Things　reach　the　prime　and　then　grow　old？
  What　is　called　this　is　without　tao。
  What　is　without　tao　comes　to　an　early　end。
  56
  Those　who　know　are　without　words
  Those　with　words　are　without　knowing。
  Corking　its　bottle
  Obstructing　its　door
  Blunting　its　sharpness
  Untying　its　tangles
  Harmonizing　its　brightness
  Being　together　with　the　dusty　earth
  Appropriately　called　insightful　togetherness。
  So　one　cannot　obtain　it　yet　be　attached
  One　cannot　obtain　it　yet　be　detached
  One　cannot　obtain　it　yet　benefit
  One　cannot　obtain　it　yet　be　harmed
  One　cannot　obtain　it　yet　treasure
  One　cannot　obtain　it　yet　consider　as　common。
  So　it　acts　as　the　treasure　of　the　world。
  57
  When　governing　the　nation　happens　correctly
  Surprising　use　of　strategy　happens。
  Absent　of　effort　grabbing　the　world　happens。
  Why　do　I　know　this　is　so？
  This　just　happens。
  The　world　has　an　abundance　of　prohibitions　and　taboos
  Yet　people　become　increasingly　inadequate
  People　have　an　abundance　of　beneficial　tools
  Confusion　multiplies　in　the　families　of　the　nation
  Men　have　an　abundance　of　skills　and　cleverness
  Surprising　things　arise　and　multiply
  Laws　and　decrees　multiply　conspicuously
  Robbers　and　thieves　are　present　in　abundance。
  So　sages　say
  I　am　absent　of　action　yet　people　transform　themselves
  I　am　fond　of　stillness　yet　people　correct　themselves
  I　am　absent　of　effort　yet　people　are　of　themselveswealthy
  I　am　absent　from　desire　yet　people　of　themselvesexhibit　true　nature。
  58
  They　who　administrate　are　covered；　muffled
  Their　people　are　pure；　honest
  They　who　administrate　are　exacting；　scrutinizing
  Their　people　are　incomplete；　deficient。
  Such　misfortune！
  The　place　of　happiness　place　is　to　lean　upon　it
  Such　happiness！
  The　place　of　misfortune　is　to　be　suppressed。
  Who　knows　its　limit？
  It　is　absent　from　the　correct。
  The　correct　returns；　acting　surprising
  The　valued　returns；　acting　as　evil　spirits。
  The　dirt　in　the　eye　of　men；
  It　is　solid；　everyday；　long…lasting。
  Appropriately　it　happens　that　sages　are
  Square　yet　without　cutting
  Pointed　yet　without　piercing
  Straight　yet　not　unbridled
  Bright　yet　not　dazzling。
  59
  In　governing　people
  Noone　compares　efforts　of　the　heavens　to　restraint。
  In　the　end　only　restraint　is　appropriately　called　quickly　resolving
  What　is　called　quickly　resolving　has　heavy　accumulation　of　ideal。
  Following　heavy　accumulation　of　ideal
  Comes　absence　of　lacking　conquering
  Following　absence　of　lacking　conquering
  Noone　knows　limits
  When　noone　knows　limits
  Presence　of　a　nation　can　happen。
  In　the　presence　of　the　mother　of　a　nation
  Growth　and　longevity　may　happen。
  Appropriately　called
  Deep　roots；　firm　stalks；　growth；　life；　longevity；looking　at　tao。
  60
  Governing　a　great　nation　looks　like　cooking　tiny　fish。
  When　it　happens　that　tao　is　present　in　the　world
  What　is　clever　lacks　spirit
  What　is　not　clever　lacks　spirit
  What　has　spirit　is　not　wounding　man
  What　has　no　spirit　is　not　wounding　man。
  Sages　also　are　not　wounding　man。
  In　the　end　both　are　without　wounding　each　other
  So　ideal　is　reached；　merges；　comes　within。
  61
  Those　which　are　great　nations　flow　and　spread　lower
  The　intersection　of　the　world
  The　female　of　the　world。
  The　female　entirely　conquers　the　male　through　stillness
  It　happens　that　stillness　acts　lower。
  So　when　a　great　nation　is　lower　than　a　tiny　nation
  It　next　grabs　the　tiny　nation
  When　a　tiny　nation　is　lower　than　a　great　nation
  It　next　grabs　the　great　nation。
  So　some　are　lower　and　it　happens　they　grab
  Some　are　lower　and　yet　they　grab。
  Without　fail　a　great　nation　desires　to　bring　together　and　rear　others
  Without　fail　a　tiny　nation　desires　to　enter　into　the　efforts　of　others。
  In　the　end　for　both　of　these　to　acquire　their　desired　position
  Those　which　are　great　appropriately　act　low。
  62
  That　which　is　tao　is　treasurehouse　for　the　10000　things
  Treasure　of　the　valuing　man
  Place　of　refuge　for　the　man　who　is　not　valuing。
  Embellished　words　can　cause　respect　to　be　marketed
  Doing　valued　things　can　cause　lavish　praise　to　enter
  Men　who　are　not　valuing；　why　be　rejecting　their　presence？
  So　establish　the　emperor
  Install　three　ministers
  Even　though　it　happens
  That　the　gift　of　the　large　jade　disk　is　precededby　a　team　of　horses
  It　can　not　compare　to　sitting；　emulating　this　tao。
  Why　did　it　happen　that　in　ancient　times
  There　were　those　who　treasured　this　tao？
  Did　they　go　without　saying
  Seek　and　finding　happens
  Possess　faults　and　escape　from　the　anomalous　happens？
  So　it　acts　as　the　treasure　of　the　world
  63
  Acting　absent　of　acting
  Effort　absent　of　effort
  Tasting　absent　of　tasting
  Great；　small；　abundant；　few
  Repay　hatred；　ideal　happens。
  Planning　the　difficult　relates　to　what　is　easy
  Acting　great　relates　to　what　is　small
  The　difficult　efforts　of　the　world　seed　doing　related　to　what　is　easy
  The　great　efforts　of　the　world　seed　doing　relatedto　what　is　small。
  Appropriately　it　happens
  That　sages　eventually　lack　great　action
  So　they　are　able　to　perfect　what　is　great。
  In　the　end　light　promises　seed　scanty　belief
  Abundant　easiness　seeds　abundant　difficulty。
  Appropriately　it　happens
  That　sages　see　all　things　as　being　equally　difficult
  So　eventually　an　absence　of　difficulty　is　with　them。
  64
  What　is　peaceful　is　easily　maintained
  What　is　not　begun　is　easily　planned
  What　is　fragile　is　easily　shattered
  What　is　tiny　is　easily　scattered。
  Acting　relates　to　the　not　yet　present
  Governing　relates　to　the　not　yet　confused。
  A　tree　as　big　as　the　embrace　of　a　man　is　born　relating　to　very　tinyshoots
  A　nine　story　tower　is　raised　relating　to　a　pile　of　earth
  A　journey　of　a　thousand　li　begins　in　relating　to　where　you　stand。
  Those　who　act　are　spoiling
  Those　who　take　hold　of　are　losing
  Appropriately　it　happens　that　sages　are　absent　of　action
  So　there　is　an　absence　of　spoiling
  Are　absent　of　taking　hold　of
  So　there　is　an　absence　of　losing。
  The　following　of　people　of　effort　in　the　entire
  Relates　to　perfecting　part　yet　spoiling
  Following　care　throughout　as　if　just　beginning
  Comes　an　absence　of　spoiling　effort。
  Appropriately　it　happens　that　sages
  Desire　without　desiring
  Are　without　treasuring　goods　difficult　to　obtain
  Learn　without　learning
  Return　to　the　place　where　the　collective　mind　passes
  And　come　to　support　the　self…nature　of　the　10000things
  Yet　without　venturing　to　act。
  65
  Those　ancients　who　valued　acting　in　tao
  Did　not　come　to　be　luminous
  People　attaining　it　came　to　be　foolish。
  The　difficulty　with　governing　people？
  It　happens　that　what　is　wise　is　abundant。
  So　if　it　happens　that　wisdom　governs　the　nation
  It　is　the　enemy　of　the　nation
  If　it　does　not　happen　that　wisdom　governs　the　nation
  It　is　the　good　luck　of　the　nation
  Those　who　know　both　these　things
  Also　investigate　the　patterns　of　entireness
  To　know　and　investigate　patterns
  Is　appropriately　called　insightful　ideal。
  Insightful　ideal　goes　with　the　penetrating；　with　the　far…reaching
  With　it　things　go　with　turning　back
  And　will　reach　the　great　alignment。
  66
  In　the　place　of　rivers　and　seas
  The　ability　to　act　as　that　which　is　the　king　ofone　hundred　valleys　happens
  It　happens　they　value　being　low
  So　the　ability　to　act　as　the　king　of　one　hundredvalleys　happens。
