2 僖公十一... :
十一年,春,晉侯使以平鄭之亂來告。
In the eleventh year, spring, Lord Jin sent someone to report about the turmoil in Pingzheng.
天王使召武公、內史過賜晉侯命。受玉惰,過歸告王曰:「晉侯其無後乎?王賜之命,而惰於受瑞,先自棄也已,其何繼之有,禮,國之幹也,敬,禮之輿也,不敬則禮不行,禮不行則上下昏,何以長世?」
The Heavenly King sent Zhao Wu Gong and Neishi Guo to bestow a mandate upon Lord Jin. When receiving the jade, he was sluggish; Guo returned and reported to the king, saying: "Will Duke of Jin have no descendants?" "The king bestowed a mandate upon him, yet he was sluggish in receiving the auspicious jade; by doing so, he has already abandoned himself. How can there be any successors? Ritual is the backbone of a state, and reverence is the vehicle of ritual. Without reverence, ritual cannot prevail; if ritual does not prevail, then the hierarchy above and below becomes confused. How could such a person endure for generations?"
夏,揚拒泉皋伊雒之戎,同伐京師,入王城,焚東門,王子帶召之也。秦、晉伐戎以救周。秋,晉侯平戎于王。
Summer, the Yangju Qiangao Yiluo Rong tribes united to attack the capital, entering Wangcheng, burning its eastern gate; this was instigated by Prince Dai. Qin and Jin attacked the Rong in order to rescue Zhou. Autumn, Lord Jin mediated peace between the Rong and the king.
黃人不歸楚貢。冬,楚人伐黃。
The people of Huang did not return tribute to Chu. Winter, the people of Chu attacked Huanɡ.
