Courage with boldness is the rule of death
Courage with prudence is the rule of life
One of these is useful, one is dangerous...

Who knows what brings about the wrath of Heaven?
Even the Sage finds it difficult to say...

The Way of Heaven:
Does not contend, so is victorious
Does not speak, and so responds
Is not summoned, and yet comes
Is lackadaisical, yet its designs succeed

The net of Heaven is wide cast!
Lax, yet nothing is ever neglected

勇於敢則殺
勇於不敢則活
此兩者或利或害

天之所惡
孰知其故
雖聖人猶難之

天之道
不爭而善勝
不言而善應
不召而自來
繟然而善謀

天網恢恢
疏而不失
