He who devotes himself to learning (seeks) from day to day to increase (his knowledge); he who devotes himself to the Tao (seeks) from day to day to diminish (his doing). He diminishes it and again diminishes it, till he arrives at doing nothing (on purpose). Having arrived at this point of non-action, there is nothing which he does not do.
AI Modern
Mophunzira amatha kuphunzira tsiku ndi tsiku; koma woongoka madzi amatha kuchuluka tsiku ndi tsiku. Akuchulukitsa pang'ono, mpaka akafika pa kupewa kanthu konse. Pamene wapewa kanthu konse, ali omasuka kuchita chilichonse. Kugwiritsa ntchito dziko limabweretsa mavuto akulu; ngati muli ndi mavuto ambiri, simukhoza kupewa dziko.
