《道德经》双语朗诵第54章

第五十四章

善建者不拔，善抱者不脱，子孙以祭祀不辍。

修之于身，其德乃真；

修之于家，其德乃余；

修之于乡，其德乃长；

修之于邦，其德乃丰；

修之于天下，其德乃普。

故以身观身，以家观家，以乡观乡，

以国观国，以天下观天下。

吾何以知天下然哉？

以此。

Whoever is planted in the Tao will not be rooted up.

Whoever embraces the Tao will not slip away.

Generations honor generations endlessly.

Cultivated in the self, virtue is realized;

cultivated in the family, virtue overflows;

cultivated in the community, virtue increases;

cultivated in the state, virtue abounds.

The Tao is everywhere; it has become everything.

To truly see it, see it as it is.

In a person, see it as a person;

in a family, see it as a family;

in a country, see it as a country;

in the world, see it as the world.

How do I know this is true? By looking inside myself.
