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.
孔子曰：侍於君子有三愆：言未及之而言謂之躁，言及之而不言謂之隱，未見顏色而言謂之瞽。Confucius said: In attending a gentleman there are three errors. To speak before it is your turn is called rashness; not to speak when it is your turn is called concealment; to speak without watching his expression is called blindness.
What this chapter says
一孔按：陪君子说话有三种过失：没轮到说就说是躁，轮到了不说是隐，不看脸色就说是瞽。说话的时机，也是对人的敬。常有人问“陪君子说话有躁、隐、瞽三愆，说早说晚说得不看人为什么都算错”，上面是一孔录的回答。
Yikonglu's reading of this chapter is in Chinese for now; the English version comes with the video.
白Plain Chinese
孔子说，陪侍君子有三种过失，还没有轮到自己说便说叫急躁，到了该说的时候却不说叫隐瞒，没有察看对方神色便开口叫没有眼力。

Compared with Zhu Xi
| Commentary | Point | Relation | Confidence | Note |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 杨伯峻《论语译注》 | same | settled | 躁隐瞽为言不合时、不察颜色三过；朱君子含有德位者，杨直译君子，不只是一般失明的瞽。 | |
| 钱穆《论语新解》 | same | fairly sure | 同以君子指德位者，三愆为未当言先言之躁、当言不言之隐、不察颜色之瞽，重时而后言。 |
