Not autosee,so bright,not wiseacre,so all; not boast,so successful; not conceit,so long.
不自以为能看见,所以看得分明.不自以为是,所以是非昭彰.不求自己的荣耀,所以大功告成.不自以为大,所以为天下王.
夫唯不争,故天下莫能与之争.
So only not to contend,to be invincible over the world.
只有那不与人相争的,世界上没有人能和他相争.
2.祸兮,福之所依；福兮,祸之所伏.
Misfortune,that is where happiness depends; Happiness,that is where misfortune underlines.
