爾既為智、於愚者則欣然容之、

爾固智者、見人之狂、淡然聽之、

爾既為智者、則甘心容彼狂者、

蓋爾明哲、固能優容狂妄之徒；

You gladly put up with fools since you are so wise!

You are so wise! You gladly put up with fools!

For you gladly bear with fools, being wise yourselves!

After all, you think you are so wise, but you enjoy putting up with fools!

For you, being so wise, gladly put up with fools!

For you, being so wise, tolerate the foolish gladly.

For you put up with fools gladly, since you yourselves are wise!

For ye bear with the foolish gladly, being wise yourselves.

For you, being so wise, gladly put up with fools!

For ye suffer fools gladly, seeing ye[ yourselves] are wise.

For since you are so wise, you put up with fools gladly.

For you bear with the foolish gladly, being wise.

你说，我很富有，已经发了财，什么都不缺。你却不知道自己困苦、可怜、贫穷、瞎眼、赤身露体。
