9章 子罕 (23节)

【原文】

子曰:〝后生可畏,焉知来者之不如今也?四十、五十而无闻焉,斯亦不足畏也已。〞

 

 

【参考译文】

孔子说:〝年轻人是大有作为的,谁能断定他们将来不如我们这一代呢?如果一个人到了四、五十岁还没有名声,也就不会有什么作为了。〞

 

【English Translation】

Confucius said: "Young people are full of potential. Who can predict if they will not surpass our generation? But if by the age of 40 or 50, a person does not establish a name for himself, he will never do so. "
