Autumn floods rise with the seasons. Thousands of rivers flow into the Yellow River, and the current is huge. You can't tell the difference between cattle and horses by the water and the islands on both sides. As a result, Hebo was very happy and thought that all the beautiful scenery in the world was concentrated on himself. Follow the running water to the east, and when you reach the Bohai Sea, you can't see the water when you look east.
So Hebo put away (changed) his happy face, looked up at the Bohai Sea and sighed: "There is an old saying,' When you hear a lot of truth, you feel that no one can compare with yourself', and that's me. I have also heard that some people look down on Ni's knowledge and Bo Yi's righteous deeds. At first, I didn't believe it. Now I see that your sea is endless. If I don't come before you, it will be dangerous, and I will always be laughed at by people who know the truth. "

3. Translation of classical Chinese "Looking at the Ocean and Sighing"
With the arrival of autumn water, thousands of streams have poured into the Yellow River, and the floods have been flowing away. Look at the cliffs on both sides, you can't tell the shape of cattle and horses. As a result, Hebo (the God of the Yellow River) got carried away, thinking that all the beautiful scenery in the world was in his own place. He followed the current eastward to the North Sea. Looking east, he can't see the end of the water. Therefore, Hebo changed his attitude, looked up blankly at Beihai Ruo (the God of Beihai) and said with emotion: "As the saying goes,' I think I know a lot of truth, and no one can catch up with myself'." That is me. Besides, I heard that some people belittle Zhong Ni's knowledge and Boyi's integrity. At first, I didn't believe it. Now I see your vastness. How dangerous it will be if I don't come to your door. I will always be laughed at by my generous family. Beihai Ruo said: "The frog in the well cannot talk to it about the size of the sea because of the narrow living environment;" Insects in summer can't talk to them about winter ice because they are limited by climate and season; A monk with shallow knowledge cannot talk to him about the truth because of his narrow education. Now that you have walked out of the water cliff and seen the vast sea, you will know your meanness, and you can tell me the truth. Of all the waters in the world, there is nothing bigger than the sea. Thousands of streams pour into the sea and don't know when they will stop until they overflow. From the tail, I don't know when it will run out. Whether it is spring or autumn, the sea never changes; Whether it is drought or flood, the sea will never feel. This is where the sea is superior to rivers and streams. Sea water can't be calculated by capacity, but I have never boasted about it. I think my body is the same as heaven and earth, and my spirit is influenced by yin and yang. I am between heaven and earth, just like a small stone and a small tree on Mount Tai. I feel small. How can I be arrogant? Please think about it. Isn't the four seas in the world like a small stone immersed in a big lake? The whole of China is within the four seas, isn't it like a grain of polished rice in Taicang? There are thousands of things in the world, and people are just one of them. Kyushu is a big country, where many people live and grow a lot of food, and there are many boats, boats, cars and horses. People are just one of them. Compared with all things, isn't man just a hair on a horse? These are what the three kings and five emperors in ancient times wanted to inherit and work hard, what the Confucian scholars who talked about benevolence and righteousness were worried about, and what the Mohist scholars who talked about practical work worked hard. But Boyi refused to accept his resignation in the name of saving righteousness. Zhong Ni kept talking to show that he was well informed. This is their boasting, isn't it just like you boasting about its water? "

[Explanation] Look at the sea: look up. Look up at Poseidon and sigh. The original intention is to sigh your smallness in front of great things. Doing things now is more like feeling helpless because of incompetence or insufficient conditions.

original text
Autumn is coming (1), and all rivers are irrigated (2); Because of the size of the Jinghe River, there is no dispute between the two cliffs in Zhu Ya. So how happy Herb is to be complacent and take the beauty of the world for himself. Follow the current to the east. As for the North Sea, looking eastward, there is no end to the water. So Yan Hebo began to look at his face (7) and sighed at the ocean (8): "There is a saying in the wild language (9),' I have heard a hundred words (10), and I think I am ignorant' (1 1). This is what I said. And if I taste the taste of Zhong Ni and despise the meaning of Boyi (12), I will believe it; It's hard to be poor when I see my son today. If I don't go to my son's door, I will be in danger. My parents are laughing at Dafang (13). "
If Beihai says, "Well can't go with the sea (14), but stay in the void (15); Summer insects can't talk to ice, but stick to the time (16); Qu's family can't talk to Taoists (17), but can only be tied to religion. Looking at the sea from the cliff today, I know that I am ugly (18), and I will be able to have a heart-to-heart talk with Dali. The water in the world is bigger than the sea, and Wan Chuan belongs to it. I don't know when it will stop at no profit (19); I don't know when it will be gone. Spring is the same as autumn. We don't know about floods and droughts. The flow of this river cannot be measured (2 1). But I have never been self-sufficient (22), because I was born in heaven and earth and suffered from yin and yang (23). I am between heaven and earth, and Xiao Mu is among the mountains. I almost see less square inches, and I laugh at myself! Counting the four seas between heaven and earth is not as empty as osawa (24). Counting China (25) in the sea is not like counting rice (26) in a warehouse. Tens of thousands of things (27), people are at a loss; People die in Kyushu (28), grains are born, boats and cars are connected, and people are at a loss (29); This is more important than anything else, unlike the end of luxury goods lies in the horse (30)? The connection of the five emperors (3 1), the dispute between the three kings, the worries of benevolent people, the work of any scholar (32), that's all! Boyi Ci is famous for its name (33), and Zhong Ni Ci is rich and self-sufficient; Don't you want to compare water (34)? "

In autumn and the season of mountain torrents, many rivers flow into the Yellow River. The river is so wide and turbulent that even cattle and horses can't tell the sandbars on both sides of the river from the water. So the river god gloated that all the beautiful things in the world were gathered here. The river god followed the current eastward to the North Sea. Looking east, he can't see the end of the sea. So he just changed his smug face, looked up at Poseidon and sighed: "As the saying goes,' After listening to hundreds of truths, you feel that no one in the world can match you', that is me. In addition, I also heard that Kong Qiu knew too little, and Boyi's lofty justice was not worthy of attention. At first, I couldn't believe it. Now I have seen with my own eyes how vast you are. If I hadn't come to the door, I would have been in danger, and I would always be laughed at by people with high cultivation. "
Poseidon said: "frogs in the well can't talk to them about the sea because they are limited by their living space;" Insects in summer are far from freezing to death, because they are limited by their survival time; Because of the shackles of upbringing, it is impossible to talk to them about the avenue of country songs. Now that you have come out of the riverbank and seen the sea, you know your meanness, and you can participate in talking about the avenue. There is nothing bigger than the ocean on the surface of the world. Thousands of rivers flow into the sea. I don't know when it will stop, and the sea will never flood. The tail at the bottom of the sea leaks seawater, I don't know when it will stop, but the seawater has never decreased; There is no change in spring and autumn, and floods and droughts are unconscious. This shows that the sea far exceeds the flow of rivers and cannot be calculated by quantity. But I have never been complacent, thinking that I inherited the body of heaven and earth and the qi of yin and yang. I exist between heaven and earth, just like a small stone in the mountains, a small piece of sawdust. Just when I thought my existence was really small, where would I think of my satisfaction and conceit? Think about it, the four seas exist between heaven and earth, just like Ozawa's tiny pores between stones. Think again, the land of the Central Plains exists in the four seas, isn't it like flour and rice and rice grains in a big granary? The number of things is ten thousand, and man is just one of all things; People gather in Kyushu, and the grain is long, and everyone is just one of many people; Compared with everything, isn't a person like a hair on a horse? What the five emperors succeeded, what the three kings fought for, what the benevolent people worried about and what the talented people planned were all in this tiny place! Boyi resigned himself to his fate and achieved great success, while Kong Qiu and Kan Kan talked about it and learned a lot, which is probably their complacency and pride; Isn't it like you are complacent when the river surges? "
With the arrival of the season, thousands of streams have poured into the Yellow River, and the floods have been flowing away. Look at the cliffs on both sides, you can't tell the shape of cattle and horses.
As a result, Hebo (the God of the Yellow River) got carried away, thinking that all the beautiful scenery in the world was in his own place. He followed the current eastward to the North Sea.
Looking east, he can't see the end of the water. Therefore, Hebo changed his attitude, looked up blankly at Beihai Ruo (the God of Beihai) and said with emotion: "As the saying goes,' I think I know a lot of things, and no one can catch up with myself.
This is just my business. Besides, I heard that some people belittle Zhong Ni's knowledge and Boyi's integrity. At first, I didn't believe it.
Now I see your vastness. How dangerous it will be if I don't come to your door. I will always be laughed at by my generous family. Beihai Ruo said: "The frog in the well cannot talk to it about the size of the sea because of the narrow living environment;" Insects in summer can't talk to them about winter ice because they are limited by climate and season; A monk with shallow knowledge cannot talk to him about the truth because of his narrow education.
Now that you have walked out of the water cliff and seen the vast sea, you will know your meanness, and you can tell me the truth. Of all the waters in the world, there is nothing bigger than the sea. Thousands of streams pour into the sea and don't know when they will stop until they overflow. From the tail, I don't know when it will run out. Whether it is spring or autumn, the sea never changes; Whether it is drought or flood, the sea will never feel.
This is where the sea is superior to rivers and streams. Sea water can't be calculated by capacity, but I have never boasted about it. I think my body is the same as heaven and earth, and my spirit is influenced by yin and yang. I am between heaven and earth, just like a small stone and a small tree on Mount Tai. I feel small. How can I be arrogant? Please think about it. Isn't the four seas in the world like a small stone immersed in a big lake? The whole of China is within the four seas, isn't it like a grain of polished rice in Taicang? There are thousands of things in the world, and people are just one of them.
Kyushu is a big country, where many people live and grow a lot of food, and there are many boats, boats, cars and horses. People are just one of them. Compared with all things, isn't man just a hair on a horse? These are what the three kings and five emperors in ancient times wanted to inherit and work hard, what the Confucian scholars who talked about benevolence and righteousness were worried about, and what the Mohist scholars who talked about practical work worked hard.
But Boyi refused to accept his resignation in the name of saving righteousness. Zhong Ni kept talking to show that he was well informed. This is their boast, isn't it just like you just praised it for its water? "。
6. In the autumn solstice, hundreds of rivers fill the river, and the Jinghe River is big. There is no difference between the two cliffs. Hebo is happy and complacent, taking the beauty of the world as his own, and going downstream to the east. As for the North Sea.
Looking to the east, there is no end to the water, so Hebo began to look to the ocean and sighed: "There is a saying in the wild:' I think I don't know my friend when I hear the Tao', which I call it. And if I taste the taste of Zhong Ni and despise Boyi's righteousness, I will believe it; Today, I saw that my son was poor, and I was in danger unless I was at my son's door. I was laughed at by a generous family! " Beihai Ruo said: "Well frogs can't talk to people in the sea, but they are confined to the air; Summer insects can't talk to ice makers, they can only stick to time.
Qu's family can't talk to Taoists, but can only be tied to religion. Now that I'm out of the cliff and looking at the sea, I know I'm ugly, and I'm sure I can have a heart-to-heart talk with Dali.
The water in the world is greater than the sea, and Wan Chuan does not know when to stop; I don't know when it is empty; Spring is the same as autumn. We don't know about floods and droughts. This is the flow of the river, which cannot be measured.
I have never learned a lesson from this incident. I think I am better than being in heaven and earth, suffering from yin and yang. I am between heaven and earth, and Xiao Mu is among the mountains. Only when I watch less can I learn from myself? In the autumn flood season, all the water from the rivers flows into the Yellow River, and the DC waves are so great that neither cattle nor horses can see them between the two sides. So Hebo was complacent, thinking that the greatest thing in the world was himself, and went east along the river to the North Sea. Looking to the east, I couldn't see the edge of the water, so Hebo changed his expression, looked at the ocean and sighed at Poseidon: "There is a saying:' I can't compare with myself after listening to a hundred truths', which means me (like this).
Moreover, I have read all the knowledge of Confucius and despise Boyi's integrity. At first, I didn't believe it. Today, I saw your infinity. If I hadn't come to you, I would have been finished. I would have seen a knowledgeable person! The North Sea Poseidon Ruo said, "A frog in a well cannot talk about the sea because he is confined to his home; The reason why insects can't talk about ice in summer depends on the season. An ignorant person cannot talk about the truth, which is limited by his education.
Today, when you walk out of the river and look at the sea, you know your own shortcomings and can tell you the truth. There is no water bigger than the sea in the world. A thousand rivers are full of water, but the sea will not be full. "Tailu" flows into the sea, I don't know when it will end, but it won't be empty; No matter the season changes, it will not change, and it will not feel anything when it is flooded.
This is that it is much more than the water in the river, which is immeasurable. But I've never been arrogant. I feel that I was formed by accepting Yin and Yang between heaven and earth. I am between heaven and earth, like a small stone and a small tree in the mountains. You can only see your own shortcomings. How can I be arrogant? "。

8. Looking at the ocean and sighing (old Chinese)
Wang Yang Xingtan
Look east at the ocean [explanation: look up. Look at Poseidon and sigh. The original refers to one's own sigh before a big event. Now, feeling helpless because of incompetence or metaphor is more powerful.
[Source] "Zhuangzi Qiushui": "So, Hebo began to turn his face. If he looked at the ocean, it would be [original].
Autumn afternoon (1), Guan Hai River (2); With the big runoff, Zhu could never defeat Niu on the river bank between two cliffs. Therefore, I am very happy to flow eastward from Yan Boxi (5) as the best self in the world (6) and as the north. The sea is in the east eye, not beside the water. Yan Bo began to turn his face (7), and Dong Yue said, "Ruoertan (8):" If you have words, it's called (9),' If you know words (10), it's for yourself' (1). And Zhong Ni, husband, see the justice of learning less but being good (12). Now my son is ugly to the poor, and I am in danger unless I am a son. I laughed at my generosity (13). "
Beihai Ruo said, "Well, the Wa language is not near the sea (14), and the doubt is false (15); Xia Chongbing said nothing and became a monk (16); Qu's family could not have been educated in Yu Tao (17). For this autumn, looking at the cliffs along the river bank and the sea, I realized that Seoul is ugly (18), and Seoul will be able to carry out Dali and language. Water world, sea, Wan Chuan's return, undisturbed, I don't know when to stop (19); Tail vent (20), I don't know when it is empty; Spring water keeps flooding, I don't know. This river has its own flow, which cannot be counted (2 1). I don't want there to be more stone mother mountain (22), because in the world, I am also between heaven and earth compared with the shape of yin and yang and hegemony (23). See Xiao Fang and Xi's self and more! Unlike Ozawa (24), the sea between heaven and earth is almost empty? China's national total is (25), which seems to be worse than atomic meters. There is almost a big warehouse (26)? No matter the number of ten thousand (27), who is gorgeous; People died in Kyushu (28th), lived as food, and traveled alone (29th); Compared with all this, Howard seems to be really not the last horse, almost (30)? Five emperors are connected (3 1), three kings in dispute, caring people, and anyone's labor (32), although that's it! Today's name (33) is self-sufficient; There seems to be no Seoul, because it is almost more than water (34)? "
Seasonal mountain torrents are rampant in autumn. According to many rivers flowing into the Yellow River, the river is so wide and thick that even the cows can't tell the difference from the sandbars between the two banks, so they get happiness from the river gods and think that all the beautiful things in the world are gathered here. The river god walked eastward along the water and came to the northern coast, facing the east. At first glance, he saw the end of the sea. So the river god changed his face. My dearest friend, who is complacent in front of Poseidon, sighed, "There is a saying,' After listening to hundreds of truths, they think that the world is no longer comparable to anyone', and said that I like this person. I also heard that Confucius knew too little, and Bo was an unworthy high-meaning word. At first, I couldn't believe its value. Today, I see you are so vast. If I hadn't come to your door, it would have been dangerous, and I have always been a good tease. "
Poseidon said, "Frogs are very good. Because the living space is limited, can the sea talk to them? " Summer insects, it is impossible to talk about freezing with them because life is limited by time; Because of the bondage of education, it is impossible to talk to them about the road. Now that you have come out of the riverbank and seen the sea, you know your shallowness and can take part in a conversation avenue. There is nothing like the sea in the world. Thousands of rivers flow into the sea, and I don't know when it will never stop and never flood. There is a leak at the bottom of the sea, and I don't know when it will stop. The sea never decreases. Whether it is spring or autumn, whether it is drought or flood, it will not change. This shows that the sea water far exceeds the river flow and there is not enough calculation. But I have never been complacent, because this is a bear from the ground, from which I insisted on the power of yin and yang. I exist on the earth, just like a small stone, a small piece of wood is currently in the mountains. Am I really small, their own existence, but also satisfied that they have it? Do you think there is a universe between heaven and earth and don't like the existence of small stones between pores and Ozawa? Think again, does it exist in the whole Central Plains, not just grain crushing and granaries? The famous man is Wan, but everything belongs to man. People gather in Kyushu, and the journey of grain growth passes by, and everyone is just one more in the crowd; All the people are not him. Does it exist at the end of the whole horse like hair? The five emperors continued to be connected, and the three kings were the battlegrounds for the military strategists. Living in a difficult human nature is more capable of physical exertion, and the whole world is just a little bit! Bo resigned from his post and became famous, and Confucius showed his deep talk, which may be their complacency and pride; Don't like you being complacent before the river surges? "
9. Autumn Water With the arrival of the season, thousands of streams run into the Yellow River, and the flood has been flowing away in a mighty way. Look at the cliffs on both sides, you can't tell the shape of cattle and horses.
As a result, Hebo (the God of the Yellow River) got carried away, thinking that all the beautiful scenery in the world was in his own place. He followed the current eastward to the North Sea.
Looking east, he can't see the end of the water. Therefore, Hebo changed his attitude, looked up blankly at Beihai Ruo (the God of Beihai) and said with emotion: "As the saying goes,' I think I know a lot of things, and no one can catch up with myself.
This is just my business. Besides, I heard that some people belittle Zhong Ni's knowledge and Boyi's integrity. At first, I didn't believe it.
Now I see your vastness. How dangerous it will be if I don't come to your door. I will always be laughed at by my generous family. Beihai Ruo said: "The frog in the well cannot talk to it about the size of the sea because of the narrow living environment;" Insects in summer can't talk to them about winter ice because they are limited by climate and season; A monk with shallow knowledge cannot talk to him about the truth because of his narrow education.
Now that you have walked out of the water cliff and seen the vast sea, you will know your meanness, and you can tell me the truth. Of all the waters in the world, there is nothing bigger than the sea. Thousands of streams pour into the sea and don't know when they will stop until they overflow. From the tail, I don't know when it will run out. Whether it is spring or autumn, the sea never changes; Whether it is drought or flood, the sea will never feel.
This is where the sea is superior to rivers and streams. Sea water can't be calculated by capacity, but I have never boasted about it. I think my body is the same as heaven and earth, and my spirit is influenced by yin and yang. I am between heaven and earth, just like a small stone and a small tree on Mount Tai. I feel small. How can I be arrogant? Please think about it. Isn't the four seas in the world like a small stone immersed in a big lake? The whole of China is within the four seas, isn't it like a grain of polished rice in Taicang? There are thousands of things in the world, and people are just one of them.
Kyushu is a big country, where many people live and grow a lot of food, and there are many boats, boats, cars and horses. People are just one of them. Compared with all things, isn't man just a hair on a horse? These are what the three kings and five emperors in ancient times wanted to inherit and work hard, what the Confucian scholars who talked about benevolence and righteousness were worried about, and what the Mohist scholars who talked about practical work worked hard.
But Boyi refused to accept his resignation in the name of saving righteousness. Zhong Ni kept talking to show that he was well informed. This is their boast, isn't it just like you just praised it for its water? "。
