【原文】

仲弓問仁，子曰：〝出門如見大賓，使民如承大祭。已所不欲，勿施於人。在邦無怨，在家無怨。〞仲弓曰：〝雍雖不敏，請事斯語矣。〞

【參考譯文】

仲弓詢問什麼是仁，孔子說：〝出仕於國家做事要像接待貴賓一樣嚴肅認真，役使老百姓如同當祭典一樣小心謹慎，凡自己不喜歡的就不要強加給別人。要做到在朝廷中沒有怨恨，在家庭裡也沒有怨恨。仲弓說：〝我雖然遲鈍，也要奉行您的教導。〞

【English Translation】

Zhong Gong asked about benevolence. Confucius answered saying: "When in public, act as if you are in audience with an honoured guest. In directing the masses, act as if you are conducting a great sacrificial ceremony. Never impose the things one does not like on others, or harbour bitterness in one’s heart at home and in court. "

        Zhong Gong said: "Although I’m dull, I must try to observe these things.
