2 哀公问:
公曰:“今之君子胡莫行之也?”孔子曰:“今之君子,好实无厌,淫德不倦,荒怠傲慢,固民是尽,午其众以伐有道;求得当欲,不以其所。昔之用民者由前,今之用民者由后。今之君子莫为礼也。”
Ai Gong Wen:
The duke said, 'How is it that the superior men of the present day do not practise them (in this way).' Confucius said, 'The superior men of the present day are never satisfied in their fondness for wealth, and never wearied in the extravagance of their conduct. They are wild, idle, arrogant, and insolent. They determinedly exhaust the (resources of the) people, put themselves in opposition to the multitude, and seek to overthrow those who are pursuing the right way. They seek to get whatever they desire, without reference to right or reason. The former using of the people was according to the ancient rules; the using of them now-a-days is according to later rules. The superior men of the present day do not practise the rites (as they ought to be practised).'

1 问礼:
哀公问于孔子曰:“大礼何如?子之言礼,何其尊?”孔子对曰:“丘也鄙人,不足以知大礼。”公曰:“吾子言焉。”孔子曰:“丘闻之:民之所以生者、礼为大。非礼则无以节事天地之神;非礼则无以辩君臣、上下、长幼之位焉;非礼则无以别男女、父子、兄弟、婚姻、亲族、疏数之交焉。是故君子以此为之尊敬,然后以其所能,教顺百姓,不废其会节。既有成事,然后治其雕镂文章黼黻,以别尊卑上下之等。其顺之也,而后言其丧祭之纪,宗庙之序。品其牺牲,设其豕腊,修其岁时,以敬祭祀,别其亲疏,序其昭穆,而后宗族会宴。即安其居,以缀恩义,卑其宫室,节其服御,车不雕玑,器不雕镂,食不二味,心不淫志,以与万民同利。古之明王,行礼也如此。”公曰:“今之君子,胡莫之行也?”孔子对曰:“今之君子,好利无厌,淫行不倦,荒怠慢游,固民是尽,以遂其心,以怨其政,以忤其众,以伐有道;求得当欲,不以其所;虐杀刑诛,不以其治。夫昔之用民者由前,今之用民者由后。是即今之君子莫能为礼也。”

公曰:今之君子胡莫之行也。孔子对曰:今之君子,好利无厌,淫行不倦,荒怠慢游,固民是尽,以遂其心,以怨其政政下有以忤其衆四字以伐有道,求得当欲,不以其所,言苟求得当其情欲而已。虐杀刑诛,不以其理,夫昔之用民也由前,用上所言。今之用民也由后,用下所言。是即今之君子莫能为礼也。
