To cherish oneself



The people not are afraid of the dreadful,
the great dreadful will come, indeed!
Do not render narrow their place where they dwell.
Do not make wearisome their place where they live.

Now only when not they are made wearisome,
thereby not they are wearisome.
Therefore the holy man himself knows,
not himself he regards.
Himself cherishes not himself he treasures.
Therefore he discards the latter
chooses the former.
