鲁有兀者叔山无趾，In Lu there was a cripple, called Shu-shan the Toeless,
踵见仲尼。 who came on his heels to see Zhongni.
仲尼曰： Zhongni said to him,
“子不谨，前既犯患若是矣。By your want of circumspection in the past, Sir, you have incurred such a calamity;
虽今来，何及矣？” of what use is your coming to me now?'
无趾曰： Toeless said,
“吾唯不知务而轻用吾身， 'Through my ignorance of my proper business and taking too little care of my body,
吾是以亡足。 I came to lose my feet.
今吾来也， But now I am come to you,
犹有尊足者存， still possessing what is more honourable than my feet,
吾是以务全之也。 and which therefore I am anxious to preserve entire.
夫天无不覆， There is nothing which Heaven does not cover,
地无不载， and nothing which Earth does not sustain;
吾以夫子为天地，you, Master, were regarded by me as doing the part of Heaven and Earth
安知夫子之犹若是也！” - how could I know that you would receive me in such a way?'
孔子曰：“丘则陋矣。Confucius rejoined, 'I am but a poor creature.
夫子胡不入乎？But why, my master, do you not come inside,
请讲以所闻！” where I will try to tell you what I have learned?'
无趾出。 When Toeless had gone out,
孔子曰： Confucius said,
“弟子勉之！'Be stimulated to effort, my disciples.
夫无趾，兀者也，This toeless cripple
犹务学以复补前行之恶， is still anxious to learn to make up for the evil of his former conduct;
而况全德之人乎！”-- how much more should those be so whose conduct has been unchallenged!'
无趾语老聃曰：Mr. Toeless, however, told Lao Dan (of the interview), saying,
“孔丘之于至人，其未邪！'Kong Qiu, I apprehend, has not yet attained to be a Perfect man.
彼何宾宾以学子为？What has he to do with keeping a crowd of disciples around him?
彼且蕲以諔诡幻怪之名闻， He is seeking to have the reputation of being an extraordinary and marvellous man,
不知至人之以是为己桎梏邪？” and does not know that the Perfect man considers this to be as handcuffs and fetters to him.'
老聃曰： Lao Dan said,
“胡不直使彼以死生为一条， 'Why did you not simply lead him to see the unity of life and death,
以可不可为一贯者， and that the admissible and inadmissible belong to one category,
解其桎梏， so freeing him from his fetters?
其可乎？” Would this be possible?'
无趾曰： Toeless said,
“天刑之， 'It is the punishment inflicted on him by Heaven.
安可解？” How can he be freed from it?'
