今天下无大小国，皆天之邑也。人无幼长贵贱，皆天之臣也。此以莫不犓羊 牛1、豢犬猪，洁为酒醴粢盛，以敬事天，此不为兼而有之，兼而食之邪？天苟兼而有食之，夫奚说以不欲人之相爱相利也？故曰：“爱人利人者，天必福之，恶人贼人者，天必祸之。”曰2：“杀不辜者，得不祥焉。夫奚说人为其相杀而天与祸乎？是以 知3天欲人相爱相利，而不欲人相恶相贼也。” |
| On the necessity of...: |
All states in the world, large or small, are cities of Heaven, and all people, young or old, honourable or humble, are its subjects; for they all graze oxen and sheep, feed dogs and pigs, and prepare clean wine and cakes to sacrifice to Heaven. Does this not mean that Heaven claims all and accepts offerings from all? Since Heaven does claim all and accepts offerings from all, what then can make us say that it does not desire men to love and benefit one another? Hence those who love and benefit others Heaven will bless. Those who hate and harm others Heaven will curse, for it is said that he who murders the innocent will be visited by misfortune. How else can we explain the fact that men, murdering each other, will be cursed by Heaven? Thus we are certain that Heaven desires to have men love and benefit one another and abominates to have them hate and harm one another. 1. 牛 : Inserted. 孙诒让《墨子闲诂》 | |

昔之圣王禹、汤、文、武，兼 爱1天下之百姓，率以尊天事鬼，其利人多，故天福之，使立为天子，天下诸侯皆宾事之。暴王桀、纣、幽、厉，兼恶天下之百姓，率以诟天侮鬼。其贼2人多，故天祸之，使遂失其国家，身死为僇于天下。后世子孙毁之，至今不息。故为不善以得祸者，桀、纣、幽、厉是也。爱人利人以得福者，禹、汤、文、武是也。爱人利人以得福者有矣，恶人贼人以得祸者亦有矣！ |
| On the necessity of...: |
The ancient sage-kings, Yu, Tang, Wen, and Wu loved the people of the world universally, leading them to reverence Heaven and worship the spirits. Many were their benefits to the people. And, thereupon Heaven blessed them, establishing them emperors; and all the feudal lords of the empire showed them respect. (On the other hand) the wicked kings, Jie, Zhou, You, and Li, hated all the people in the world, seducing the people to curse Heaven and ridicule the spirits. Great were their injuries to the people. Thereupon Heaven brought them calamity, depriving them of their empire and their lives; and posterity condemned them to this day. Jie, Zhou, You, and Li, then, are those that committed evil and were visited by calamities. And Yu, Tang, Wen, and Wu are those that loved and benefited the people and obtained blessings. Thus we have those who obtained blessings because they loved and benefited the people as well as those who were visited by calamities because they hated and harmed the people. 1. 爱 : Inserted. 孙诒让《墨子闲诂》 |

| 1 | 法仪: | 子墨子曰：天下从事者，不可以无法仪，无法仪而其事能成者无有也。故百工从事，皆有法度，今大者治天下，其次治大国，而无法度，此不若百工也。然则奚以为治法而可，莫若法天，天之行广而无私，其施厚而不息息作德，其明久而不衰，故圣王法之，既以天为法，动作有为，必度于天，天之所欲则为之，天所不欲则止，然而天何欲何恶也。天必欲人之相爱相利，而不欲人之相恶相贼也。以其兼而爱之，兼而利之也。奚以知天之兼而爱之，兼而利之也。今天下无小大国，皆天之邑也。人无幼长贵贱，皆天之臣也。故曰爱人利人者，天必福之，恶人贼人者，天必祸之，是以天欲人相爱相利，而不欲人相恶相贼也。昔之圣王禹、汤、文、武，兼爱天下之百姓，率以尊天事鬼，其利人多，故天福之，使立为天子，天下诸侯皆宾事之，暴王桀、纣、幽、厉，兼恶天下之百姓，率以诟天侮鬼，其贼人多，故天祸之，使遂失其国家，身死为戮于天下后世，子孙毁之，至今不息，故为不善以得祸者，桀、纣、幽、厉是也。爱人利人以得福者，禹、汤、文、武是也。 |
