| 208 | 208 | 【原文】 闻恶不可就恶,恐为谗夫泄怒;闻善不可即亲,恐引奸人近身。 【今译】 【今译】 听说一件坏事,不要立即表示厌恶,恐怕被进谗言小人用来泄 私愤;听说一件好事,不能马上就表示亲近,恐怕会引做假的奸人 到你身旁。 | When you hear that someone has done evil, do not rush to condemn him, for it may be that an enemy of his is merely slandering him. When you hear that someone has done good, do not rush to be close to him, for it may be a ruse used by a wicked man to lure you. |
