| | 馬丹: |
馬丹者，晉耿之人也。當文侯時，為大夫。至獻公時，復為幕府正。獻公滅耿，殺恭太子，丹乃去。至趙宣子時，乘安車入晉都，候諸大夫。靈公欲仕之，逼不以禮，有迅風發屋，丹入回風中而去。北方人尊而祠之。 |
| | Ma Danzhe was a native of Jin Geng. During the time of Marquis Wen, he served as an official. By the time of King Xian, he once again became a chief officer in the military office. When King Xian destroyed Jin Geng and killed Crown Prince Gong, Dan left his post. During the time of Zhao Xuansi, he traveled in a comfortable carriage to the capital of Jin and waited upon the high officials. King Ling wanted to appoint him to an official post, but treated him disrespectfully; suddenly a violent wind blew off the roof, and Dan entered the swirling wind and vanished. People in the north revered him and built shrines to worship him.

馬丹官晉，與時汙隆。事文去獻，顯沒不窮。密網將設，從禮迅風。杳然獨上，絕跡玄宮。 |
| | Ma Dan served in Jin, rising and falling with the times. He served Wen but left Xian; his fame and obscurity knew no bounds. As a dense net was about to be cast, he followed the rites and vanished in the sudden wind. lington He ascended mysteriously alone, leaving no trace in the celestial palace.
