道德经英文版（三宝第六十七）
~{ 天下皆谓我道大，似不肖。夫唯大，故似不肖。若肖，久矣其细~}
~{也夫！~}
~{ 我有三宝，持而保之。一曰慈，二曰俭，三曰不敢为天下先。~}
~{ 慈故能勇；俭故能广；不敢为天下先，故能成器长。~}
~{ 今舍慈且勇；舍俭且广；舍后且先；死矣！~}
~{ 夫慈以战则胜，以守则固。天将救之，以慈卫之。~}
67. Three Treasures
All the world says,
"I am important;
I am distinguished from all the world.
I am separate because I am distinguished,
Were I common, I would be unimportant."
Yet here are three treasures
That I cherish and commend to you:
The first is compassion,
By which one finds courage.
The second is reserve,
By which one finds strength.
And the third is commonality,
By which one finds influence.
Those who are courageous, yet careless,
Strong, yet impetuous,
Or influential, yet separate,
Cannot endure.
