May the world be chaotic and evil and good will not be cured in this way. Hidden from the sick, long by treacherous and rarely harmless. Han comes first, and the Holy Knowers do not need to be fools.
The car in front has been overturned, and the back is unknown, how can you feel it? If you don't realize it, you don't know the suffering, and it's easy to get up and down when you're confused and lose your fingers. If you don't get up, you will be blinded by the door.
The door is plugged, the great confusion, the chaos is not the ultimate, right and wrong are reversed, and the evil and the righteous are bullied by Zhou. Righteousness and evil, the heart is unreasonable, and the evil is reversed. I don't know the precepts, there will be aftermath, and I will not regret the hatred.
Slanderers are more aggressive, and repeated words are deceitful. The state of a person is not as good as being prepared, striving for favor and jealousy of the virtuous and jealous; jealousy of merit and destruction of the virtuous, and hiding from the party and the superior. The upper part is covered, the auxiliary is lost, and the appointment of slanderers cannot be controlled.
The difficulty of Guogong's eldest father, King Li is in trouble. Zhou Youli is so defeated, and it is harmful to not listen to the rules and be loyal.

Looking at the past, with self-discipline, the right and wrong of chaos can also be recognized. Entrusted to the appearance of metaphors.
Literal translation:
Please listen to the fundamentals of governing the country, and be willing to publicize the rhetoric, the world is chaotic, evil and good, but it does not govern this situation. If you conceal your mistakes and hate the virtuous, and appoint treachery as your claim, then there will be few and no disasters. Suffer, suffer, suffer, really suffer.
Crooked and evil ways are aspirations, and the saints and wise men do not appoint them, but they consult with stupid people. The car in front has overturned, and the car behind has not yet known how to change direction.
The monarch is really unconscious, and he does not know that he will suffer, and he will be confused and confused, and he will become a subordinate upside down. Advice cannot be told to the monarch, and the monarch's ears and eyes are blindfolded, as if the door is blocked. If the way of listening is blocked, you will be confused and confused, and you will be confused and dim, and you will always be so unlimited.
Right and wrong are reversed, right is wrong, colluded with each other to deceive the monarch, and the righteous are hated. The upright are hated, the monarch has no way to control it, the evil is not right and sinister, and he is confused and lost his way.
Don't blame others, I'm too conceited, can't I make a mistake? I don't know if I am vigilant against accidents, there will be mistakes in the future, I am fierce and stubborn and difficult to dissuade, and I will not repent of my mistakes in the end. There are a lot of slanderers, and they tell them upside down, and all the deception and evil are done.
For the wickedness of the courtiers, they do not know how to guard against and be vigilant, and the courtiers compete for favor and jealousy, hating and suspicious of each other. Jealous of meritorious heroes and ruining meritocracy, colluding with party henchmen, and deceiving the monarch.
The monarch is deceived from above, loses his assistance and power, and appoints a villain who is slanderous, and cannot control him. The eldest father of Duke Yu was too presumptuous, and because of the disaster, King Li fled to Yi.
King Zhou You and King Zhou Li, so there was a reason for the failure, and they didn't listen to the advice of others, and they specially killed the loyal ministers. Alas, what kind of person am I, but I don't meet a good time, and I live in troubled times and achieve nothing.
If you want to complain to the monarch, but if you don't listen to it, I am afraid that you will become Wu Zixu, and you will suffer bad luck. If he didn't listen to his advice, he was given a cut on his neck, and his body was thrown in the heart of the river.
Looking back and observing the past can be used to guard against the body and calm the chaos of right and wrong, and we can also know from it. With the drumming song, it is used to show my heart.
Please make a appearance, say the word, and the monarch has five covenants to make it clear.
The king guards it, the lower ones are fair, and the country is prosperous. Ministers, don't eat and eat, and use money for this section. The cause sounds like nothing to make each other, a people's power.
Abide by his duties, have enough food and clothing, and have thick and thin clothes. Profit to the side, do not have to be good with, who is private? The law is clear, there is a constant, and the table is set up by the people to know the party. There is a law in advance and retreat, and there is no need to be noble and low, who is the king of selfishness?
Jun Fayi, forbidden, do not say, do not change the name of the religion. Those who cultivate it are honored, and those who leave it are humiliated, and who is the other teacher? There is a law for sin and evil, and there is no distinction between severity and power.
Please Mu Ji, Ming Youqi, the Lord will be good at discussing and strategizing. Fifth, listen to the cultivation leader, and ignore the continuation of the Lord's persistence.
Listen to the scriptures, know their invitation, and join the army to reward and punish them. Those who are visible will be gained, those who are hidden will be reappeared, and the people will be honest. Words are modest, truthful, and the letter is rewarded and punished. The lower is not bullied, all with love, tomorrow is like the sun.
On the benefit, hidden far away, the view of the law is illegal. The ears and eyes are clear, and the officials dare not dare to obey the law. The king teaches that there is a law, and the officials will be careful not to beryllium slippery. Under the private invitation, each is appropriate, and the clumsy is clumsy. The ministers are cautious, the monarchy changes, and the public is good at thinking and not messing up. To rule the world, the law of later generations will be consistent.
Literal translation:
Let me beat the drum and say that you listen, and talk about the policy of governing the country, there are five ways to be a king, which are not only concise but also distinct. The monarch strictly observes it, and the subjects are in good condition, and the country will prosper. The subjects must be dutiful, not allowed to wander and eat white food, and engage in farming to save expenses, and the wealth is infinite and the treasury is real. Do things according to the arrangement of the king, and must not be instructed without authorization, and unify the control of the people.
If the subjects abide by their duties, they will be able to have plenty of food and clothing, and they will have more or less ranks, and they will have clear titles and clothing. The monarch's laws are very strict, the speech is lawful and standardized, the rules and regulations have been established, and the people understand the direction clearly.
There are standards for the appointment and dismissal of officials, and the high and low cannot be arbitrarily determined, who will curry favor with the king in private?
The monarch's law is the standard, and the forbidden things are not touched, and there is no dislike of the king's decree, and the name and regime are not changed. Who would dare to deviate from the law and run amok? The criminal law should be properly displayed, the boundaries of observance of the regulations should be clear, the subordinates should not use the punishment without authorization, and the power of the wealthy will be light. There shall be a decree for the punishment of sins, and shall not be aggravated or mitigated, and the power of the monarch shall not be divided.

The five principles are all obeyed, the program of being the monarch is followed, and all of them are inherited from each other, so that the monarch can be firmly in power. The routine of handling political affairs lies in understanding the facts, comparing and testing the situation, and prudently implementing rewards and punishments.
The obvious things will be found out, and the hidden things will be revealed, and the people will be sincere. Wealth and gain can only be given by the king, and subordinates are not allowed to give money to themselves, who can obtain wealth in private? If people speak in a measured manner, they must evaluate the truth, and the truth and falsehood have been distinguished, and rewards and punishments must be implemented. The subjects dare not deceive the king anymore, and they will spit out their true feelings when they speak, as bright as the sun.
The monarch is not blinded by men, his eyes are sharp and sensitive, subtle things are revealed, and the situation will come from afar, and he can see clearly when he observes extra-legal affairs in depth.
When the monarch is wise, the officials will re-enforce the law, and no one will dare to do it arbitrarily. The monarch issued the fatwa, and the subjects had a standard of behavior, and the officials were cautious to follow it, and did not dare to deceive and disturb the decree.
The ministers do not go down to intercede privately, and each serves the king with the way, giving up opportunism and ingenuity. His subordinates are cautious and strict in abiding by the law, the monarch controls the right to change the law, examines and thinks fairly, and the ethical relationship is not chaotic.
