第五十九章治人事天，莫若啬。夫唯啬，是谓早服；早服谓之重积德；重积德则无不克，无不克则莫知其极；莫知其极，可以有国；有国之母，可以长久。是谓深根固柢，长生久视之道。Chapter 59For governing a country wellthere is nothing better than moderation.The mark of a moderate manis freedom from his own ideas.Tolerant like the sky,all-pervading like sunlight,firm like a mountain,supple like a tree in the wind,he has no destination in viewand makes use of anythinglife happens to bring his way.Nothing is impossible for him.Because he has let go,he can care for the people's welfareas a mother cares for her child.
