英语翻译English Translation：

4:1 Confucius said: "As for a neighborhood, it is its jen that makes it beautiful. If you choose to live in a place that lacks jen, how can you grow in wisdom?"

4:2 Confucius said: "If you lack jen you can't handle long periods of difficulty or long periods of comfortability. Jen men are comfortable in jen. The wise take advantage of jen."

4:3 Confucius said: "Only the jen person is able to really like others or to really dislike them."

4:4 Confucius said: "If you are really committed to jen, you will have no evil in you."

4:5 Confucius said, "Riches and honors are what all men desire. But if they cannot be attained in accordance with the Tao they should not be kept. Poverty and low status are what all men hate. But if they cannot avoided in while staying in accordance with the Tao, you should not avoid them. If a Superior Man departs from jen, how can he be worthy of that name? A Superior Man never leaves jen for even the time of a single meal. In moments of haste he acts according to it. In times of difficulty or confusion he acts according to it."

4:6 Confucius said: "I have never seen one who really loves jen or really hates non-jen. If you really loved jen you would not place anything above it. If you really hated the non-jen, you would not let it near you. Is there anyone who has devoted their strength to jen for a single day? I have not seen anyone who has lacked the strength to do so. Perhaps there has been such a case, but I have never seen it."

4:7 Confucius said: "People err according to their own level. It is by observing a person's mistakes that you can know his/her goodness."

[Comment] No one is perfect, free from error. But when someone makes a mistake in a human relationship, we can tell by the type of mistake, and by the person's way of dealing with it, what her/his true character is like.

4:8 Confucius said: "If I can hear the Tao in the morning, in the evening I can die content."

4:9 "A shih who is set on the way, but is ashamed of old clothes and coarse food, is not worth consulting."

[Comment] The title shih is usually translated into English as either "knight" or "scholar." While the shih of later Chinese history is more definitely a scholar than a knight, in the Analects, what Confucius is referring to is a level of spiritual/moral development, as well as academic and martial cultivation which is clearly above that of the average person. Thus, we can understand the shih to be a person who is well on the way toward becoming a "Superior Man," but is not quite there yet. I am reluctant to render shih, as either "scholar" or "knight" because of the limitations in meaning that occur with these English words.

4:10 Confucius said: "When the Superior Man deals with the world he is not prejudiced for or against anything. He does what is Right."

4:11 Confucius said: "The Superior Man cares about virtue; the inferior man cares about material things. The Superior Man seeks discipline; the inferior man seeks favors."

4:12 Confucius said: "If you do everything with a concern for your own advantage, you will be resented by many people."

4:13 Confucius said: "If you can govern the country by putting propriety first, what else will you need to do? If you can't govern your country by putting propriety first, how could you even call it propriety?"

4:14 Confucius said: "I don't worry abut not having a good position; I worry about the means I use to gain position. I don't worry about being unknown; I seek to be known in the right way."

4:15 Confucius said: "Shan, my Tao is penetrated by a single thread." Tseng Tzu said, "Yes." When the Master left, some disciples asked what he meant. Tseng Tzu said, "Our master's Tao is to be sincere and fair, and that's it."

4:16 Confucius said: "The Superior Man is aware of Righteousness, the inferior man is aware of advantage."

4:17 Confucius said: "When you see a good person, think of becoming like her/him. When you see someone not so good, reflect on your own weak points."

4:18 Confucius said: "When you serve your mother and father it is okay to try to correct them once in a while. But if you see that they are not going to listen to you, keep your respect for them and don't distance yourself from them. Work without complaining."

4:19 Confucius said: "While your parents are alive, it is better not to travel far away. If you do travel, you should have a precise destination."

4:20 Confucius said: "If, for three years (after your father's death) you don't alter his ways of doing things, you can certainly be called 'filial.'"

4:21 Confucius said: "Your parents' age should not be ignored. Sometimes it will be a source of joy, and sometimes it will be a source of apprehension."
 
4:22 Confucius said: "The ancients were hesitant to speak, fearing that their actions would not do justice to their words."

4:23 Confucius said: "If you are strict with yourself, your mistakes will be few."

4:24 Confucius said: "The Superior Man desires to be hesitant in speech, but sharp in action."

4:25 Confucius said: "If you are virtuous, you will not be lonely. You will always have friends.”

4:26 Tzu Yu said: "In serving your prince, frequent remonstrance will lead to disgrace. With friends, frequent remonstrance will lead to separation."
