逐句中英对照翻译
现代日常口语版英文
关键短语口语对应表及使用建议

一、逐句中英对照翻译

每句包括：原英文（Legge译本）、逐字/意译中文、标准现代中文、简要说明。

原英文: He who knows (the Dao) does not (care to) speak (about it);
逐字意译中文: 那个知（道）的人不（在意去）言（之道）；
标准中文: 知者不言，
说明: “He who knows (the Dao)”对应“知者”；“does not (care to) speak”用“care to”表达“不屑于、不愿”说道的态度。

原英文: he who is (ever ready to) speak about it does not know it.
逐字意译中文: 那个（总是准备好）言之道的人不知它。
标准中文: 言者不知。
说明: 与上句对仗，形成经典排比；“ever ready to”突出爱喽喽不绝讲道者恰恰不懂道。

原英文: He (who knows it) will keep his mouth shut and close the portals (of his nostrils).
逐字意译中文: 他（知它的人）将保持他的嘴关闭并且关闭门户（他的鼻孔的）。
标准中文: 塞其兑，闭其门；
说明: “keep his mouth shut”为口语习语；“portals of his nostrils”古雅表达，指感官之门（古人视鼻息为主要交流门户）。

原英文: He will blunt his sharp points and unravel the complications of things;
逐字意译中文: 他将使他的锐点变钝并且解开事物的纷扰；
标准中文: 挫其锐，解其纷；
说明: 并列四个动作的前两个，比喻收敛锋芒、化解纠葛。

原英文: he will attemper his brightness, and bring himself into agreement with the obscurity (of others).
逐字意译中文: 他将调和他的光亮，并且使自己进入与（他人的）昏暗一致。
标准中文: 和其光，同其尘。
说明: “attemper”为古词，意为调和；“obscurity”此处指世俗尘埃，即“和光同尘”。

原英文: This is called ‘the Mysterious Agreement.’
逐字意译中文: 这被称为 ‘神秘的契合’。
标准中文: 是谓玄同。
说明: 总括前述行为；“Mysterious Agreement”直译“玄同”，强调深奥的融合。

原英文: (Such an one) cannot be treated familiarly or distantly;
逐字意译中文: （这样的人）不能被对待亲密地或疏远地；
标准中文: 不可得而亲，不可得而疏；
说明: 体现超脱亲疏关系的境界。

原英文: he is beyond all consideration of profit or injury;
逐字意译中文: 他超越所有对利益或伤害的考量；
标准中文: 不可得而利，不可得而害；
说明: “beyond all consideration of”表达完全不受利害左右。

原英文: beyond all consideration of nobility or meanness:
逐字意译中文: 超越所有对高贵或卑贱的考量：
标准中文: 不可得而贵，不可得而贱。
说明: “meanness”古义为“卑贱、低微”，非现代“刻薄”。

原英文: - he is the noblest man under heaven.
逐字意译中文: —— 他是天下最尊贵的人。
标准中文: 故为天下贵。
说明: 破折号引出结论，具有反讽意味：真正尊贵者超越世俗标准，反而最贵。

二、现代日常口语版英文

自然流畅版（适合分享或与朋友讨论）

Those who really get the Dao don’t feel the need to talk about it.
The ones who can’t stop talking about it probably don’t get it at all.

If you truly understand it, you keep quiet and shut down your senses.
You tone down your sharpness, untangle life’s messes, dim your own light a bit, and blend in with everyone else’s ordinary dust.
That’s what we call “mysterious oneness” – or just profound unity.

A person like that can’t be pulled closer or pushed away.
You can’t sway them with rewards or scare them with threats.
You can’t put them on a pedestal or look down on them.
That’s why, in the end, they’re the most respected person in the world.

更随意聊天版（像朋友间闲聊）

People who truly understand the Dao don’t go around bragging about it.
The ones who never shut up about it? Yeah, they don’t really get it.

Someone who gets it stays quiet, closes off the chatter, and just chills.
They don’t show off how sharp they are, they smooth out drama, don’t blind people with their brilliance, and just blend in with the crowd.
That’s called being in that deep, mysterious flow where everything’s one.

You can’t get super close to someone like that, and you can’t keep them at arm’s length either.
Good stuff doesn’t tempt them, bad stuff doesn’t faze them.
They’re not impressed by status, and they don’t feel inferior to anyone.
That’s exactly why everybody respects them the most – they’re above all that noise.
