知不知,上;不知知,病。夫唯病病,是以不病。聖人不病,以其病病,是以不病。To know that one does not know is best; not to know but think one knows is a sickness. Only by treating the sickness as sickness can one be free of it. The sage is free of the sickness because he treats the sickness as sickness; so he is free of it.
白Plain Chinese
知道自己有所不知,是上等;不知道却自以为知道,是毛病。正因为把毛病当作毛病,所以没有毛病。圣人没有毛病,因为他把毛病当作毛病,所以没有毛病。
Draft plain-Chinese rendering following Wang Bi; it will be checked when the chapter is taught.
