《诗经·THE SHE KING》·一日一行273
翻译版本·James Legge·理雅各博士

有太多被篡改曲意逢迎的古旧的真文字，被邪恶者所用了。
所谓的正本清源，你一定不能在矢缸里完成。
打开新世界的窗，
回望你被弯曲涂抹的世界，
庆幸你的靈，还在——你看看外来的Monk念的经。
273《大雅·荡》
TANG
1 How vast is Go.d,
The ruler of men below!
How arrayed in terrors is Go.d,
With many things irregular in His ordinations!
Heave.n gave birth to the multitude of the people,
But the nature it confers is not to be depended on.
All are good at first
But few prove themselves to be so at the last.
荡荡口口，下民之辟。疾威口口，其命多辟。天生烝民，其命匪谌。靡不有初，鲜克有终。
2 K.ing Wăn said,
'Alas!Alas!
you [sovereign of] Yin-shang,
That you should have such violently oppressive ministers,
That you should have such extortionate exactors,
That you should have them in offices
That you should have them in the conduct of affairs!
Heave.n made them with their insolent dispositions,
But it is you who employ them, and give them strength.'
文wan曰：咨！咨！女殷商。
3 Ki.ng Wăn said, 'Alas!
Alas! you [sovereign of] Yin-shang,
You ought to employ such as are good,
But [you employ instead] violent oppressors, who cause many dissatisfactions.
They respond to you with baseless stories,
And [thus] robbers and thieves are in you court.
Thence come oaths and curses,
Without limit, without end.'

4 Kin.g Wăn said, 'Alas!
Alas! you [sovereign of] Yin-shang,
You show a strong fierce will in the centre of the kingd.om,
And consider the contracting of enmities a proof of virtue.
All unintelligent are you of your [proper] virtue,
And so you have no good men behind you, nor by your side.
Without any intelligence of your [proper] virtue,
You have no good intimate adviser nor minister.'

5 Kin.g Wăn said, 'Alas!
Alas! you [sovereign of] Yin-shang,
It is not Heave.n that flushes your face with spirits
So that you follow what is evil and imitate it.
You go wrong in all your conduct;
You make no distinction between the light and the darkness;
But amid clamour and shouting;
You turn the day into night.'

6 Ki.ng Wăn said, 'Alas!
Alas! you [sovereign of] Yin-shang,
[All round you] is like the noise of cicadas,
Or like the bubbling of boiling soup.
Affairs, great and small, are approaching to ruin;
And still you [and your creatures] go on in this course.
Indignation is rife against you here in the Middle kingd.om,
And extends to the demon regions.'
小大近丧，人尚乎由行。内奰于口口，覃及鬼方。

7 Ki.ng Wăn said, 'Alas!
Alas! you [sovereign of] Yin-shang,
It is not Go.d that has caused this evil time,
But it arises from Yin's not using the old [ways].
Although you have not old experienced men,
There are still the ancient statutes and laws.
But you will not listen to them,
And so your great appointment is being overthrown.'
虽无老成人，尚有典刑。曾是莫听，大.命以倾。

8 K.ing Wăn said, 'Alas!
Alas! you [sovereign of] Yin-shang,
People have a saying,
"When a tree falls utterly,
While its branches and leaves are yet uninjured,
It must first have been uprooted.
The beacon of Yin is not far-distant;—
It is in the age of the [last] sovereign of Hëa.'
文wan曰：咨，咨女殷商。
人亦有言：“颠沛之揭，枝叶未有害，本实先拨。”殷jian不远，在夏后之世。
