13 五仪解:
哀公问于孔子曰:“夫国家之存亡祸福,信有天命,非唯人也?”孔子对曰:“存亡祸福,皆己而已;天灾地妖,不能加也。”公曰:“善!吾子言之,岂有其事乎?”孔子曰:“昔者殷王帝辛之世,有雀生大鸟于城隅焉。占之曰:‘凡以小生大,则国家必王而名益昌。’于是帝辛介雀之德,不修国政,亢㬥无极,朝臣莫救,外寇乃至,殷国以亡。此即以己逆天时,诡福反为祸者也。又其先世殷王太戊之时,道缺法圮,以致妖蘖,桑谷于朝,七日大拱。占之者曰:‘桑谷,野木而不合生朝,意者国亡乎?’大戊恐骇,侧身修行,思先王之政,明养民之道。三年之后,远方慕义,重译至者,十有六国。此即以己逆天时,得祸为福者。故天灾地妖所以儆人主者也;寤梦徵怪所以儆人臣者也。灾妖不胜善政,寤梦不胜善行。能知此者,至治之极。唯明王达此。”公曰:“寡人不鄙固此,亦不得闻君子之教也。”
