11.25 子路、曾皙、冉有、公西华侍坐。子曰：“以吾一日长乎尔，毋吾以也。居则曰：‘不吾知也！’如或知尔，则何以哉？”子路率尔而对曰：“千乘之国，摄乎大国之间，加之以师旅，因之以饥馑；由也为之，比及三年，可使有勇，且知方也。”夫子哂之。“求！尔何如？”对曰：“方六七十，如五六十，求也为之，比及三年，可使足民。如其礼乐，以俟君子。”“赤！尔何如？”对曰：“非曰能之，愿学焉。宗庙之事，如会同，端章甫，愿为小相焉。”“点！尔何如？”鼓瑟希，铿尔，舍瑟而作，对曰：“异乎三子者之撰。”子曰：“何伤乎？亦各言其志也。”曰：“莫春者，春服既成，冠者五六人，童子六七人，浴乎沂，风乎舞雩，咏而归。”夫子喟然叹曰：“吾与点也！”三子者出，曾皙后。曾皙曰：“夫三子者之言何如？”子曰：“亦各言其志也已矣。”曰：“夫子何哂由也？”曰：“为国以礼，其言不让，是故哂之。”“唯求则非邦也与？”“安见方六七十如五六十而非邦也者？”“唯赤则非邦也与？”“宗庙会同，非诸侯而何？赤也为之小，孰能为之大？”

【译文】子路、曾皙、冉有、公西华四个人陪着孔子坐着。孔子说道：“因为我比你们年纪都大，[老了，]没有人用我了。你们平日说：‘人家不了解我呀！’假若有人了解你们，[打算请你们出去，]那你们怎么办呢？”子路不加思索地答道：“一千辆兵车的国家，局促地处于几个大国的中间，外面有军队侵犯它，国内又加以灾荒。我去治理，等到三年光景，可以使人人有勇气，而且懂得大道理。”孔子微微一笑。又问：“冉求，你怎么样？”答道：“国土纵横各六七十里或者五六十里的小国家，我去治理，等到三年光景，可以使人人富足。至于修明礼乐，那只有等待贤人君子了。”又问：“公西赤！你怎么样？”答道：“不是说我已经很有本领了，我愿意这样学习：祭祀的工作或者同外国盟会，我愿意穿着礼服，戴着礼帽，做一个小司仪者。”又问：“曾点！你怎么样？”他弹瑟正近尾声，铿的一声把瑟放下，站了起来答道：“我的志向和他们三位所讲的不同。”孔子道：“那有什么妨碍呢？正是要各人说出自己的志向呵！”曾皙便道：“暮春三月，春天衣服都穿定了，我陪同五六位成年人，六七个小孩，在沂水旁边洗洗澡，在舞雩台上吹吹风，一路唱歌，一路走回来。”孔子长叹一声道：“我同意曾点的主张呀！”子路、冉有、公西华三人都出来了，曾皙后走。曾皙问道：“那三位同学的话怎样？”孔子道：“也不过各人说说自己的志向罢了。”曾皙又道：“您为什么对仲由微笑呢？”孔子道：“治理国家应该讲求礼让，可是他的话却一点不谦虚，所以笑笑他。”“难道冉求所讲的就不是国家吗？”孔子道：“怎样见得横纵各六七十里或者五六十里的土地就不够是一个国家呢？”“公西赤所讲的不是国家吗？”孔子道：“有宗庙，有国际间的盟会，不是国家是什么？[我笑仲由的不是说他不能治理国家，关键不在是不是国家，而是笑他说话的内容和态度不够谦虚。譬如公西赤，他是个十分懂得礼仪的人，但他只说愿意学着做一个小司仪者。]如果他只做一小司仪者，又有谁来做大司仪者呢？”

11.25. Zi Lu, Zeng Xi, Ran You and Gongxi Hua sitting in attendance, the Master said, “Never mind I am older than you. Do not say your abilities are not recognized. What if they were?” Zi Lu replied straightforwardly, “If I were entrusted with a state of a thousand chariots, though situated among bigger powers and invaded by hostile armies, and suffering from famine and draught, I would teach its people to be courageous and know what is right by the end of three years.” The Master smiled at him and said to Ran You, “What about you?” Ran You said, “If I were entrusted with a state of sixty or seventy square leagues, I could give its people plenty to live on by the end of three years. As for ritual and music, I would leave them to cultured men.” “What about you, Gongxi Hua?” Gongxi Hua said, “I do not think I am capable, but I would like to learn. In ceremonies at the ancestral temple and at the conference of princes, I would like to act as an assistant in black gown and hat, ” “What about you, Zeng Xi?” Zeng Xi, pausing as he was playing on his twanging lute, put it aside and said, “My answer is quite different from theirs.” The Master said, “What matters? Just say what you would like to do.” Then Zeng Xi said, “In late spring I would put on my newly made spring dress and go with five or six grown-ups and six or seven young men to purify ourselves in River Yi, enjoy the breeze at the Rain Altar and come back singing.” The Master said with a sigh, “I would like to go with you.” When the three disciples were out, Zeng Xi remained behind and asked, “What do you, dear Master, think of what my fellow disciples have just said?” The Master said, “They have said what they would like to do.”Zeng Xi asked, “Why did you smile at what Zi Lu said?” The Master said, “A state should be governed in accordance with what is right. Zi Lu was not modest, so I smiled at him.” “Did not Ran You talk about the governance of a country?” “Is a state of sixty or seventy square leagues not a country to be governed?” “Did not Gongxi Hua talk about the governance of a country?” “What are services at the ancestral temple and conferences of the princes if not performance of a country? If Gongxi Hua could only act as an assisstant, then who could be the master in ceremony?”
