《论语》共20篇,以下为第16篇原文及译文:
原文:
仲尼曰:“上好禮,則民易使也。”
子路對曰:“今之從政者何如?”
子曰:“噫!斗筲之人,何足算也。”
“上好禮,則民易使也。”原文中“禮”指的是儒家理论中的仁、义、礼、智、信等诸多伦理方面的规范。孔子认为,一个领袖如果能够讲究这些规范的应用,就会使人民心悦诚服,好相处,能够很容易地统率他们。
子路提出了一个有趣的问题:“今之从政者何如?”孔子回答说:“斗筲之人,何足算也。”孔子认为,从政理应讲究礼仪纲常,而且这些人也是领袖的代表。但时下的政治家们往往缺乏诚信与品德,他们应当被视为品质普通、无用之人。
译文:
孔子说:“领袖讲究礼仪,人民就容易驾驭。”
子路问:“现在的政治家怎么样?”
孔子回“嗯,那些斗筲之人算什么。”
注:斗筲是一种古代测量容器,表示政治家们的品质差,不足以被重视。
