8.2
子曰：“恭而无礼则劳，慎而无礼则葸［1］，
勇而无礼则乱，直而无礼则绞［2］。君子笃于亲，
则民兴于仁；故旧不遗，则民不偷［3］。”
The Master said, “Respectfulness, without
the rules of propriety, becomes laborious bustle;
carefulness, without the rules of propriety, becomes
timidity; boldness, without the rules of propriety,
becomes insubordination; straightforwardness,
without the rules of propriety, becomes rudeness.
When those who are in high stations perform well all
their duties to their relations, the people are aroused
to virtue. When old friends are not neglected by
them, the people are preserved from meanness.”
【注释】［1］葸（x@）：胆怯，畏惧。［2］绞：
刺伤人。［3］偷：苟且敷衍，薄情寡义。
