Holding and filling it,
is not likely its being stopped?
Handling and sharpening it,
is not able long to be kept.
[If] gold [and] jewel fill the hall,
nobody it can protect.
[If] wealthy [and] exalted but haughty
they themselves bring about their misfortune.
Merit to accomplish,
fame to complete,
[and] his person to retire,
[is] heaven of,
the way.
