He aha kēia paukū e pili ana?
Ua aʻo mai kēia paukū, ʻo ka ikaika ʻoluʻolu ka mea ikaika loa. ʻAʻole e kau aku i ka pū, ʻaʻole e huhū, ʻaʻole e kū kokoke i ka ʻenemi, a noho ma lalo o nā kānaka. ʻO ia ka hemo o ka ʻaʻole kūʻē, a ua like ia me ka lani.
Pehea ka pilina iaʻu?
Ua ʻae au i ka mana ma ka ikaika, i ka lanakila ma ke kūʻe ʻana aku. Ua ʻike au i nā mea hōʻeha ʻia, a ua makemake au e ikaika like. Akā ʻo ka ikaika ʻoluʻolu, ʻo ia nō ke kū maoli.
He aha kaʻu e hana ai i kēia lā?
I kēia lā, inā e huhū koʻu naʻau, e mālie au a noho ma lalo. Inā e kūʻe mai kekahi, e mālie au a manaʻo i ka hopu mua ʻole ʻana aku.
He who in (Tao's) wars has skill Assumes no martial port; He who fights with most good will To rage makes no resort. He who vanquishes yet still Keeps from his foes apart; He whose hests men most fulfil Yet humbly plies his art.
