舜年二十以孝聞。 | When Shun was twenty years old he was noted for his filial piety, |

舜居媯汭,內行彌謹。 | Shun lived within the bend of the Kuei river, and was especially careful. |
堯二女不敢以貴驕事舜親戚, | Yao's two daughters did not dare, on account of their rank, to be proud, but waited on Shun's relations, |
甚有婦道。 | and were constant in their wifely duties, |
堯九男皆益篤。 | while Yao's nine sons became more and more generous. |
舜耕歷山, | When Shun ploughed on Li mountain, |
歷山之人皆讓畔; | the inhabitants yielded the boundaries; |
漁雷澤, | when he fished in Thunder lake, |
雷澤上人皆讓居; | the men on the lake yielded to him the best place; |
陶河濱, | and when he made pots on the bank of the river, |
河濱器皆不苦窳。 | his vessels had no holes or flaws in them. |
一年而所居成聚,二年成邑,三年成都。 | If he dwelt in a place for a year he formed an assemblage, in two years it became a town, and in three a metropolis. |
堯乃賜舜絺衣,與琴,為筑倉廩,予牛羊。 | Yao gave Shun clothes made of fine grass-cloth, and a lute, and built him a granary and shed for his oxen and sheep. |
瞽叟尚復欲殺之, | Gusou again tried to kill Shun |
使舜上涂廩, | by making him go up and plaster the roof of the granary, |

舜乃以兩笠自捍而下, | but Shun, protecting himself from the fire with a couple of bamboo hats, |
去,得不死。 | came down and escaped with his life. |
後瞽叟又使舜穿井,舜穿井為匿空旁出。 | Gusou after this told Shun to dig a well, which he did, making a secret tunnel at the side to get out at. |
舜既入深, | When Shun had gone right in, |
瞽叟與象共下土實井, | Gusou and Xiang filled up the well with earth, |
舜從匿空出,去。 | but Shun came out by the secret passage. |
瞽叟、象喜,以舜為已死。 | Gusou and Xiang rejoiced, thinking that Shun was dead, |
象曰: | and Xiang said, |
「本謀者象。」 | 'The plot was mine, |
象與其父母分, | but I will go shares with my father and mother; |
於是曰:「舜妻堯二女,與琴,象取之。 | I will take Shun's wives, Yao's two daughters, and the lute as my share, |
牛羊倉廩予父母。」 | while the oxen, sheep, granary and shed shall belong to my parents.' |
象乃止舜宮居, | He remained, however, in Shun's house |
鼓其琴。 | playing on the lute, |
舜往見之。 | and when Shun went thither |
象鄂不懌, | Xiang, startled and not well-pleased to see him, |
曰: | said, |
「我思舜正郁陶!」 | 'I was just thinking of you, and getting very anxious.' |
舜曰:「然,爾其庶矣!」 | 'Quite so,' said Shun, 'and so you possessed yourself of all these things.' |
舜復事瞽叟愛弟彌謹。 | Shun again served Gusou, loved his brother, and was still more careful in his conduct. |
於是堯乃試舜五典百官,皆治。 | Yao thereupon tested Shun as to the five cardinal rules, and the various officers were under control. |
