68 道德經:
善為士者,不武;善戰者,不怒;善勝敵者,不與;善用人者,為之下。是謂不爭之德,是謂用人之力,是謂配天古之極。
Dao De Jing:
(Matching heaven)
He who in (Dao's) wars has skill
Assumes no martial port;
He who fights with most good will
To rage makes no resort.
He who vanquishes yet still
Keeps from his foes apart;
He whose hests men most fulfil
Yet humbly plies his art.

Thus we say, 'He never contends,
And therein is his might.'
Thus we say, 'Men's wills he bends,
That they with him unite.'
Thus we say, 'Like Heaven's his ends,
No sage of old more bright.'

1 配天:
善為士者不武,言貴道德,不好武力也。善戰者不怒,善以道戰者,禁邪於胸心,絕禍於未萌,無所誅怒也。善勝敵者不與,善以道勝敵者,附近以仁,來遠以德,不與敵爭,而敵自服也。善用人者為之下。善用人自輔佐者,常為人執謙下也。是謂不爭之德,謂上為之下也。是乃不與人爭之道德也。是謂用人之力,能身為人下,是謂用人臣之力也。是謂配天古之極。能行此者,德配天也。是乃古之極要道也。
