2. 曰:「文王既沒,文不在茲乎?
3. 天之將喪斯文也,後死者不得與於斯文也;天之未喪斯文也,匡人其如予何?」

CHAPTER V.
1. The Master was put in fear in K'wang.
2. He said, 'After the death of king Wan, was
not the cause of truth lodged here in me?
3. 'If Heaven had wished to let this cause of
truth perish, then I, a future mortal, should not have got such a relation to
that cause. While Heaven does not let the cause of truth perish, what can the
people of K'wang do to me?'
