有子曰：「其為人也孝弟，而好犯上者，鮮矣；不好犯上，而好作亂者，未之有也。君子務本，本立而道生。孝弟也者，其為仁之本與！」

有子說：「孝敬父母、尊敬師長，卻好犯上的人，少極了；不好犯上，卻好作亂的人，絕對沒有。做人首先要從根本上做起，有了根本，就能建立正確的人生觀。孝敬父母、尊敬師長，就是仁的根本吧！」

유자왈: 기위인야효제, 이호범상자 선의 불호범상 이호작란자 미지유야. 군자무본 본립이도생. 효제야자 기위인지본여

유자가 말했다. "그 사람됨이 부모에게 효도하고 어른에게 공경스러우면서 윗사람 해치기를 좋아하는 사람은 드물다. 윗사람 해치기를 좋아하지 않으면서 질서를 어지럽히기를 좋아하는 사람은 없다. 군자는 근본에 힘쓰는 것이니, 근본이 확립되면 따라야 할 올바른 도리가 생겨난다. 효도와 공경이라는 것은 바로 인을 실천하는 근본이니라!"

1. The philosopher Yû said, "They are few who, being filial and fraternal, are fond of offending against their superiors. There have been none, who, not liking to offend against their superiors, have been fond of stirring up confusion.
2. "The superior man bends his attention to what is radical. That being established, all practical courses naturally grow up. Filial piety and fraternal submission! – are they not the root of all benevolent actions?"

Yu Tzu said, 'It is rare for a man whose character is such that he is good as a son and obedient as a young man to have the inclination to transgress against his superiors; it is unheard of for one who has no such inclination to be inclined to start a rebellion. The gentleman devotes his efforts to the roots, for once the roots are established, the Way will grow therefrom. Being good as a son and obedient as a young man is, perhaps, the root of a man's character.'

有子曰く、その人と為りや、孝悌にして上を犯すことを好む者は鮮なし。上を犯すことを好まずして乱を作すことを好む者は、未だこれあらざるなり。君子は本を務む。本立ちて道生る。孝悌はそれ仁を為すの本なるか。

有子先生（孔子）がこうおっしゃった。『其の生来の人格が、親孝行で目上の人に従順なのに、社会的な年（802;が上の人にさからう人は少ない。目上の人や上位者にさからうことを好まない人で、内乱を起こしたという人はまだ存在しない。人格者である君子は根本的な事柄を大切にする。根本的なことが確立すれば、人の生きるべき道が自然に出来るのだ。親孝行で上位者の人に従順であることは、仁の徳を完成させる為の根本である。』
