73 道德经:
勇于敢则杀,勇于不敢则活。此两者,或利或害。天之所恶,孰知其故?是以圣人犹难之。天之道,不争而善胜,不言而善应,不召而自来,繟然而善谋。天网恢恢,踈而不失。
Dao De Jing:
(Allowing men to take their course)
He whose boldness appears in his daring (to do wrong, in defiance of the laws) is put to death; he whose boldness appears in his not daring (to do so) lives on. Of these two cases the one appears to be advantageous, and the other to be injurious. But

When Heaven's anger smites a man,
Who the cause shall truly scan?

On this account the sage feels a difficulty (as to what to do in the former case).
It is the way of Heaven not to strive, and yet it skilfully overcomes; not to speak, and yet it is skilful in (obtaining a reply); does not call, and yet men come to it of themselves. Its demonstrations are quiet, and yet its plans are skilful and effective. The meshes of the net of Heaven are large; far apart, but letting nothing escape.

勇于敢则杀,勇敢有为,则杀其身。勇于不敢则活。勇于不敢有为,则活其身。此两者,谓敢与不敢也。或利或害,活身为利,杀身为害。天之所恶。恶有为也。孰知其故?谁能知天意之故而不犯?是以圣人犹难之。言圣人之明德犹难于勇敢,况无圣人之德而欲行之乎?天之道,不争而善胜,天不与人争贵贱,而人自畏之。不言而善应,天不言,万物自动以应时。不召而自来,天不呼召,万物皆负阴而向阳。繟然而善谋。繟,宽也。天道虽宽博,善谋虑人事,修善行恶,各蒙其报也。天网恢恢,疏而不失。天所网罗恢恢甚大,虽疏远,司察人善恶,无有所失。

郎顗襄楷列传下

29 郎顗襄楷... :
二事:孔子曰:“雷之始发大壮始,君弱臣强从解起。”今月九日至十四日,大壮用事,消息之卦也。于此六日之中,雷当发声,发声则岁气和,王道兴也。《》曰:“雷出地奋,豫,先王以作乐崇德,殷荐之上帝。”雷者,所以开发萌牙,辟阴除害。万物须雷而解,资雨而润。故经曰:“雷以动之,雨以润之。”王者崇宽大,顺春令,则雷应节,不则发动于冬,当震反潜。故易传曰:“当雷不雷,太阳弱也。”今蒙气不除,日月变色,则其效也。天网恢恢,疏而不失,随时进退,应政得失。大人者,与天地合其德,与日月合其明,琁玑动作,与天相应。雷者号令,其德生养。号令殆废,当生而杀,则雷反作,其时无岁。陛下若欲除灾昭祉,顺天致和,宜察臣下尤酷害者,亟加斥黜,以安黎元,则太皓悦和,雷声乃发。

唐朱泚败,奔泾州。京师副元帅李晟。收复宫阙。朱泚既败走,收残兵士。才馀一二百人。忽昏迷,不辨南北,因问路于田父。田父曰:“岂非朱太尉耶。伪宰相源休止之曰:“汉皇帝。”田父曰:“天地不长凶恶。虵鼠不为龙虎。天网恢恢,去将何适。泚怒,欲杀之,俄而亡其所在。及去泾州百馀里。泚于马上。忽叩头连称乞命。手足纷纭,若有拒捍,因之坠马,良久却苏。左右问其故,曰:“见段司农。”寻被韩旻枭斩。出《广德神异录》
