Hōrōngō bērōnō dhanḍē

兵不祥恬淡丧礼

Original

夫佳兵者，不祥之器，物或恶之，故有道者不处。
君子居则贵左，用兵则贵右。兵者不祥之器，非君子之器，不得已而用之，恬淡为上。胜而不美，而美之者，是乐杀人。夫乐杀人者，则不可以得志于天下矣。
吉事尚左，凶事尚右。偏将军居左，上将军居右，言以丧礼处之。杀人之众，以哀悲泣之，战胜以丧礼处之。

Wang Bi (226–249 CE)

James Legge (1891)

Now arms, however beautiful, are instruments of evil omen, hateful, it may be said, to all creatures. Therefore they who have the Tao do not like to employ them. The superior man ordinarily considers the left hand the most honourable place, but in time of war the right hand.
