且吾所以知天之愛民之厚者有矣，Moreover I know Heaven loves men dearly not without reason.
曰以磨為日月星辰，Heaven ordered the sun, the moon, and the stars
以昭道之； to enlighten and guide them.
制為四時春秋冬夏，Heaven ordained the four seasons, Spring, Autumn, Winter, and Summer,
以紀綱之； to regulate them.
雷降雪霜雨露，Heaven sent down snow, frost, rain, and dew
以長遂五穀麻絲，to grow the five grains and flax and silk
使民得而財利之； that so the people could use and enjoy them.
列為山川谿谷，Heaven established the hills and rivers, ravines and valleys,
播賦百事，and arranged many things
以臨司民之善否； to minister to man's good or bring him evil.
為王公侯伯，He appointed the dukes and lords
使之賞賢而罰暴； to reward the virtuous and punish the wicked,
賊金木鳥獸，and to gather metal and wood, birds and beasts,
從事乎五穀麻絲，and to engage in cultivating the five grains and flax and silk
以為民衣食之財。 to provide for the people's food and clothing.
自古及今，未嘗不有此也。This has been taking from antiquity to the present.
今有人於此，Suppose there is a man
驩若愛其子，who is deeply fond of his son
竭力單務以利之， and has used his energy to the limit to work for his benefit.
其子長，But when the son grows up
而無報子求父， he returns no love to the father.
故天下之君子與謂之不仁不祥。 The gentlemen of the world will all call him unmagnanimous and miserable.
今夫天兼天下而愛之， Now Heaven loves the whole world universally.
撽遂萬物以利之， Everything is prepared for the good of man.
若豪之末，非天之所為， The work of Heaven extends to even the smallest things that are enjoyed by man.
而民得而利之，則可謂否矣， Such benefits may indeed be said to be substantial,
然獨無報夫天， yet there is no service in return.
而不知其為不仁不祥也。 And they do not even know this to be unmagnanimous.
此吾所謂君子明細而不明大也。 This is why I say the gentlemen of the world understand only trifles but not things of importance.
