且夫待钩绳规矩而正者，	And moreover, in employing the hook and line, the compass and square, to give things their correct form
是削其性；	you must cut away portions of what naturally belongs to them;
待绳约胶漆而固者，	in employing strings and fastenings, glue and varnish to make things firm,
是侵其德也；	you must violently interfere with their qualities.
屈折礼乐，	The bendings and stoppings in ceremonies and music,
呴俞仁义，	and the factitious expression in the countenance of benevolence and righteousness,
以慰天下之心者，	in order to comfort the minds of men
此失其常然也。	- these all show a failure in observing the regular principles (of the human constitution).
天下有常然。	All men are furnished with such regular principles;
常然者，	and according to them
曲者不以钩，	what is bent is not made so by the hook,
直者不以绳，	nor what is straight by the line,
圆者不以规，	nor what is round by the compass,
方者不以矩，	nor what is square by the carpenter's square.
附离不以胶漆，	Nor is adhesion effected by the use of glue and varnish,
约束不以纆索。	nor are things bound together by means of strings and bands.
故天下诱然皆生，	Thus it is that all in the world are produced what they are by a certain guidance,
而不知其所以生；	while they do not know how they are produced so;
同焉皆得，	and they equally attain their several ends
而不知其所以得。	while they do not know how it is that they do so.
故古今不二，不可亏也。	Anciently it was so, and it is so now; and this constitution of things should not be made of none effect.
则仁义又奚连连如胶漆纆索，	Why then should benevolence and righteousness be employed as connecting (links), or as glue and varnish, strings and bands,
而游乎道德之间为哉？	and the enjoyment arising from the Dao and its characteristics be attributed to them?
使天下惑也！	It is a deception practised upon the world.
夫小惑易方，	Where the deception is small, there will be a change in the direction (of the objects pursued);
大惑易性。	where it is great, there will be a change of the nature itself.
何以知其然邪？	How do I know that it is so?
自虞氏招仁义以挠天下也，	Since he of the line of Yu called in his benevolence and righteousness to distort and vex the world,
天下莫不奔命于仁义，	the world has not ceased to hurry about to execute their commands
是非以仁义易其性与？	- has not this been by means of benevolence and righteousness to change (men's views) of their nature?
