He aha kēia palapala e aʻo mai nei, ʻo ia kēia: e hana ʻole aku i ka hana, e mōʻalea ʻole aku i ka mōʻalea, e kaikoʻo i ka mea ʻala ʻole. He aha kēia? ʻO ia kēia ka hana ʻana me ka ʻole o kahi e hao ai, ʻo ia ka mōʻalea ʻana me ka ʻole o ka hāwili ʻana. A e hoʻihoʻi i ka ino me ka lokomaikaʻi, ʻaʻole me ka ino. E kuhikuhi i ka paʻuma nui ma kona maʻalahi, no ka mea, mai ka maʻalahi mai e ulu ai ka paʻuma nui.

Hana ʻole aku i ka hana, e mōʻalea ʻole i ka mōʻalea, e kaikoʻo i ka mea ʻala ʻole. E helu nui a liʻiliʻi, e helu ʻuʻuku a nui. E hoʻihoʻi i ka ino me ka lokomaikaʻi. E kuhikuhi i ka paʻuma nui ma kona maʻalahi, e hana i ka mea nui ma kona ikiiki. He mau mea paʻuma nui ko ka honua, ā e hana ʻia mai nō ia mau mea ma kona maʻalahi; he mau mea nui ko ka honua, ā e hana ʻia mai nō ia mau mea ma kona ikiiki. No laila, ʻaʻole ka poʻe akahai e hana nui wale iho, no ka mea, hiki iā lākou ke piha i ko lākou nui. ʻOiai ʻoiai, ʻo ka poʻe kuhiwikiwiki, āwana lākou i ka manaʻo; ʻo ka poʻe manaʻo maʻalahi nui, āwana lākou i ka pilikia nui. No laila, e like me kā ka poʻe akahai, manaʻo nui lākou i kēlā mea kēia mea, a ʻaʻole nō lākou i pilikia.

He aha kēia paukū e pili ana?
He aha kēia palapala e aʻo mai nei, ʻo ia kēia: e hana ʻole aku i ka hana, e mōʻalea ʻole aku i ka mōʻalea, e kaikoʻo i ka mea ʻala ʻole. He aha kēia? ʻO ia kēia ka hana ʻana me ka ʻole o kahi e hao ai, ʻo ia ka mōʻalea ʻana me ka ʻole o ka hāwili ʻana. A e hoʻihoʻi i ka ino me ka lokomaikaʻi, ʻaʻole me ka ino. E kuhikuhi i ka paʻuma nui ma kona maʻalahi, no ka mea, mai ka maʻalahi mai e ulu ai ka paʻuma nui.
Pehea ka pilina iaʻu?
Ma kuʻu ola, he mea nui kēia e hoʻomanaʻo ai: ʻaʻole e mālie nō wau i ka hana nui wale ʻana, akā e hana me ka maʻalahi a me ka noʻonoʻo mua. ʻOiai ʻoiai, ua ʻike au, ʻoiai nō ka poʻe kuhiwikiwiki i ka manaʻo, āwana nō lākou i ka manaʻo maikaʻi. No laila, inā ʻo wau e mālie a e noʻonoʻo mua, hiki iaʻu ke ʻalo i nā pilikia nui.
He aha kaʻu e hana ai i kēia lā?
I kēia lā, e mālie au a e noʻonoʻo mua i ka luhi o kēia lā. ʻAʻole au e ʻai ʻino ʻole aku, akā e hoʻomohala ʻole wale aku i nā mea āpau me ka laulā a me ka noʻonoʻo. A inā he ino mai kekahi, e hoʻihoʻi au me ka lokomaikaʻi.
(It is the way of the Tao) to act without (thinking of) acting; to conduct affairs without (feeling the) trouble of them; to taste without discerning any flavour; to consider what is small as great, and a few as many; and to recompense injury with kindness. Therefore the sage sees difficulty even in what seems easy, and so never has any difficulties.
