Chapter 70
第七十章
My words are very easy to know, and very easy to practise;
吾言甚易知，甚易行。
but there is no one in the world who is able to know and able to practise them.
天下莫能知，莫能行。
There is an originating and all-comprehending (principle) in my words, and an authoritative law for the things (which I enforce).
言有宗，事有君。
It is because they do not know these, that men do not know me.
夫唯无知，是以不我知。
They who know me are few, and I am on that account (the more) to be prized.
知我者希，则我者贵。
It is thus that the sage wears (a poor garb of) hair cloth, while he carries his (signet of) jade in his bosom.
是以被褐而怀玉。
