30 道德經:
以道佐人主者,不以兵強天下。其事好還。師之所處,荊棘生焉。大軍之後,必有凶年。善有果而已,不敢以取強。果而勿矜,果而勿伐,果而勿驕。果而不得已,果而勿強。物壯則老,是謂不道,不道早已。
Dao De Jing:
(A caveat against war)
He who would assist a lord of men in harmony with the Dao will not assert his mastery in the kingdom by force of arms. Such a course is sure to meet with its proper return.
Wherever a host is stationed, briars and thorns spring up. In the sequence of great armies there are sure to be bad years.
A skilful (commander) strikes a decisive blow, and stops. He does not dare (by continuing his operations) to assert and complete his mastery. He will strike the blow, but will be on his guard against being vain or boastful or arrogant in consequence of it. He strikes it as a matter of necessity; he strikes it, but not from a wish for mastery.
When things have attained their strong maturity they become old. This may be said to be not in accordance with the Dao: and what is not in accordance with it soon comes to an end.

17 道經:
以道佐人主,謂人主能以道自輔佐。不以兵强於天下,順天任德,敵人自服也。師之所處,荊棘生焉。農事廢,田不脩。大軍之後,必有凶年,天應之以惡氣,即害五穀也。善者果而已,行善者,當果敢而已,不休也。不敢以取强焉。不敢以果敢取强大之名。果而勿矜,當果敢謙卑,勿自矜大。果而勿伐,當果敢推讓,勿自伐也。果而勿驕,驕,欺,勿以驕欺也。果而勿强。果敢,勿以為强,以侵凌人也。
