Lunyu V. 25. (117)

Praise of sincerity, and of Tso Ch'iû-ming.
The Master said, "Fine words, an insinuating appearance, and excessive respect;– Tso Ch'iˆu-ming was ashamed of them. I also am ashamed of them. To conceal resentment against a person, and appear friendly with him;– Tso Ch'iˆu-ming was ashamed of such conduct. I also am ashamed of it."

Legge V.24.

The Master said, 'Cunning words, an ingratiating face and utter servility, these things Tso-ch'iu Ming found shameful. I, too, find them shameful. To be friendly towards someone while concealing one's hostility, this Tso-ch'iu Ming found shameful. I, too, find it shameful.'

Lau [5:25]

Le Maître dit : « Chercher à plaire par un langage étudié, prendre un extérieur trop composé, donner des marques de déférence excessives, c'est ce que Tsouo K'iou ming aurait rougi de faire ; moi aussi, j'en aurais honte. Haïr un homme au fond du cœur et le traiter amicalement, c'est ce que Tsouo K'iou ming aurait rougi de faire ; moi aussi, j'en aurais honte. »

Couvreur V.24.

25. Nabi bersabda, "Pandai memutar kata-kata, bermanis muka dan hormat yang berlebih-lebihan ; Zuo Qiu-ming merasa malu untuk melakukan, Aku juga merasa malu. Di dalam hati membenci, tetapi berpura-pura baik dan bersahabat ; Zuo Qiu-ming merasa malu untuk melakukan, Akupun malu".
