一孔录The video for this chapter is still in production. For now this page gives the original text, the facsimile page, a working translation and the commentary; the full reading follows when the video is out.
名與身孰親？身與貨孰多？得與亡孰病？是故甚愛必大費，多藏必厚亡。知足不辱，知止不殆，可以長久。Your name or your life: which is dearer? Your life or your goods: which is worth more? Gain or loss: which is the harm? So excessive love must lead to great expense, and much hoarding must lead to heavy loss. Know contentment and you will not be disgraced; know when to stop and you will be in no danger; you can then last long.
白Plain Chinese
名声和身体，哪个更亲？身体和财货，哪个更重？得到和失去，哪个更有害？所以过分爱惜必定大加耗费，过多收藏必定大量丢失。知道满足就不会受辱，知道停止就不会危险，可以长久。
Draft plain-Chinese rendering following Wang Bi; it will be checked when the chapter is taught.
