吾吾生生也也有有涯涯
而而知知也也無无涯涯
以以有有涯涯隨随無无涯涯
殆殆已已
已已而而為为知知者者
殆殆而而已已矣矣
為为善善無无近近名名
為为惡恶無无近近刑刑
緣缘督督以以為为經经
可可以以保保身身
可可以以全全生生
可可以以養养親亲
可可以以盡尽年年
Translation
My life has a limit, but knowledge has none. To pursue the limitless with what is limited is dangerous. Knowing this and still pursuing knowledge is even more dangerous. In doing good, avoid fame; in doing evil, avoid punishment. Follow the middle path as your constant way — you may protect your body, preserve your life, care for your parents, and live out your years.
