傳曰:驕溢之君寡忠,口惠之人鮮信。故盈把之木無合拱之枝,榮澤之水無吞舟之魚,根淺則枝葉短,本絕則枝葉枯。《》曰:「枝葉未有害,本實先撥。」禍福自己出也。

3 齊東郭姜:
先是時,東郭姜與前夫子棠毋咎俱入,崔子愛之,使為相室,崔子前妻子二人大子城、少子彊。及姜入後,生二子明、成。成有疾,崔子廢成,而以明為後。成使人請崔邑以老,崔子哀而許之。棠毋咎與東郭偃爭而不成,成與彊怒,將欲殺之,以告慶封。慶封,齊大夫也,陰與崔氏爭權,欲其相滅也。謂二子曰:「殺之。」於是二子歸殺棠毋咎東郭偃於崔子之庭。崔子怒,愬之於慶氏曰:「吾不肖,有子不能教也,以至於此。吾事夫子,國人之所知也,唯辱使者,不可以已。」慶封乃使盧蒲嫳帥徒眾,與國人焚其庫廄,而殺成、姜。崔氏之妻曰:「生若此,不若死。」遂自經而死。崔子歸見庫廄皆焚,妻子皆死,又自經而死。君子曰:「東郭姜殺一國君而滅三室,又殘其身,可謂不祥矣。」《》曰:「枝葉未有害,本實先敗。」此之謂也。

8 蕩:
文王曰咨、咨女殷商。
人亦有言、顛沛之揭。
枝葉未有害、本實先撥。
殷鑒不遠、在夏后之世。
Dang:
King Wen said, 'Alas!
Alas! you [sovereign of] Yin-shang,
People have a saying,
'When a tree falls utterly,
While its branches and leaves are yet uninjured,
It must first have been uprooted. '
The beacon of Yin is not far-distant; -
It is in the age of the [last] sovereign of Xia. '
