| 4 | 定分: | 法令者，民之命也，为治之本也，所以备民也。为治而去法令，犹欲无饥而去食也，欲无寒而去衣也，欲东西行也，其不几亦明矣。一兔走，百人逐之，非以兔也。夫卖者满市，而盗不敢取，由名分已定也。故名分未定，尧舜禹汤且皆如骛焉而逐之；名分已定，贪盗不取。今法令不明，其名不定，天下之人得议之，其议人异而无定。人主为法于上，下民议之于下，是法令不定，以下为上也。此所谓名分之不定也。夫名分不定，尧舜犹将皆折而奸之，而况众人乎？此令奸恶大起，人主夺威势，亡国灭社稷之道也。 |
| Fixing of Rights and...: | Law is the authoritative principle for the people, and is the basis of government; it is what shapes the people. Trying to govern while eliminating the law is like a desire not to be hungry while eliminating food, or a desire not to be cold while eliminating clothes, or a desire to go east while one moves west. It is clear enough that there is no hope of realizing it. That a hundred men will chase after a single hare that runs away, is not for the sake of the hare; for when they are sold everywhere on the market, even a thief does not dare to take one away, because their legal title is definite. Thus if the legal title is not definite, then even men like Yao, Shun, Yu or Tang would all rush to chase after it, but if the legal title is definite even a poor thief would not take it. Now if laws and mandates are not clear, nor their titles definite, the men of the empire have opportunities for discussion; in their discussions they will differ and there will be no definiteness. If above the ruler of men makes laws, but below the inferior people discuss them, the laws will not be definite and inferiors will become superiors. This may be called a condition where rights and duties are indefinite. When rights and duties are indefinite, even men like Yao and Shun will become crooked and commit acts of wickedness, how much more then the mass of the people ! This is the way in which wickedness and wrong-doing will be greatly stimulated, the ruler of men will be despoiled of his authority and power, will ruin his country and bring disaster upon the altar of the soil and grain. |

| 1 | 定分: | 法令者，民之命也。为治之本也。所以备民也。智者不得过，愚者不得不及，名分不定，而欲天下之治，是犹欲无饥而去食去食下旧无欲字，补之，欲无寒而去衣也。其不几亦明矣。一兔走而百人追之，非以兔为可分以为百，由名之未定也。夫卖兔者满市，盗不敢取，由名分之定也。故名分未定，尧，舜，禹，汤且皆加务而逐之，名分已定，贪盗不取，今法令不明，其名不定，天下之人得议之，此所谓名分不定也。夫名分不定，尧，舜犹将皆折而奸之，而况衆人乎。故圣人必为法令置官也。置吏也。为天下师，所以定分分上有名字也。名分定则大诈真真作贞信，巨盗愿悫，而各自治也。故夫名分定，势治之道也。名分不定，势乱之道也。故势治者不可乱也。势乱者不可治也。夫势乱而欲治之，愈乱矣。势治而治之，则治矣。故圣人治治，不治乱也。 |

| 10 | 律令下: |
《商君书》曰：凡人主，德行非出人也，勇力非过人也。然民虽有圣智，弗敢谋；有勇力，弗敢煞；虽众，弗胜。其制民尾篹万之数，虽行重赏而民弗敢争，行重罚而民弗敢怨者，法也。 又曰：法令者，民之则也，为治之本也，所以备民也。知者不得过，过者不得不及。名分不定而欲天下之治也，是犹欲无饥而去食，欲无寒而去衣也，欲至东而西行，其不几亦明矣。一兔走而百人逐之，非兔一可以分百也，由名之未定也。夫卖兔在市，盗不敢取，分之定也。今法令不明，其名不定，天下之人得议之也。 |
