From of old the things that have acquired Unity are these:
Heaven by Unity has become clear;
Earth by Unity has become steady;
The Spirit by Unity has become spiritual;
The Valley by Unity has become full;
All things by Unity have come into existence;
Princes and kings by Unity have become rulers of the world.
If heaven were not clear, it would be rent.
If earth were not steady it would be tumbled down.
If the Spirit were not active, it would pass away.
If the Valley were not full, it would be dried up.
If all things were not existing, they would be extinct.
If princes and kings were not rulers, they would be overthrown.
The noble must be styled in terms of the humble;
The high must take the low as their foundation.
Therefore princes and kings must call themselves 'the ignorant', 'the virtueless' and 'the unworthy'.
Does this not mean that they take the humble as their root? What men hate most are 'the ignorant', 'the virtueless' and 'the unworthy'.
And yet princes and kings chose them as their titles.
Therefore the higest fame is to have no fame.
Thus kings are increased by being diminished;
They are diminished by being increased.
It is undesirable to be as prominent as a single gem,
Or as monotonously numerous as stones.

《道德經》: 昔之得一者:天得一以清;地得一以寧;神得一以靈;谷得一以盈;萬物得一以生;侯王得一以為天下貞。其致之,天無以清,將恐裂;地無以寧,將恐發;神無以靈,將恐歇;谷無以盈,將恐竭;萬物無以生,將恐滅;侯王無以貴高將恐蹶。故貴以賤為本,高以下為基。是以侯王自稱孤、寡、不穀。此非以賤為本耶?非乎?故致數譽無譽。不欲琭琭如玉,珞珞如石。
《老子河上公章句·法本》: 昔之得一者:天得一以清,地得一以寧,神得一以靈,谷得一以盈,萬物得一以生,侯王得一以為天下貞。其致之。天無以清將恐裂,地無以寧將恐發,神無以靈將恐歇,谷無以盈將恐竭,萬物無以生將恐滅,侯王無以貴高將恐蹶。故貴以賤為本,高以下為基是以侯王自謂孤、寡、不轂。此非以賤為本邪?非乎!故致數輿無輿,不欲琭琭如玉,珞珞如石。
《馬王堆·老子甲德經》: 昔之得一者:天得一以清;地得□以寧;神得一以霝;浴得一以盈;侯□□□而以為正。其致之也,胃天毌已清將恐□,胃地毌□□將恐□,胃神毌已霝將恐歇,胃浴毌已盈將恐渴,胃侯王毌已貴□□□□□。故必貴而以賤為本,必高矣而以下為基。夫是以侯王自胃□孤寡不穀,此其賤□□與?非□?故致數與無與。是故不欲□□若玉,硌硌□□。
《馬王堆·老子乙德經》: 昔得一者:天得一以清;地得一以寧;神得一以霝;浴得一盈;侯王得一以為天下正。其至也,胃天毌已,清將恐蓮;地毌已寧,將恐發;神毌□□□恐歇;谷毌已□,將渴侯王毌已貴以高將恐蹶。故必貴以賤為本,必高矣而以下為基。夫是以侯王自胃孤、寡、不穀。此其賤之本與?非也。故至數輿無輿。是故不欲祿﹦若玉硌﹦若石。 (Ⅰ) - He Shanggong (English) :
Those who of yore reached unity: Heaven acquired unity. Thereby it is clear. Earth acquired unity. Thereby it is quiet. The spirits acquired unity. Thereby they are magic-endowed. The valley-streams acquired unity. Thereby they are filled out. All beings acquired unity. Thereby they live. The princes and the king acquired unity. Thereby they are the just ones of the empire. These effect it: If heaven had not whereby it is clear, it might be feared that it would rend. If earth had not whereby it is tranquil it might be feared that it would collapse. If the spirits had not whereby they are magic-endowed it might be feared that they would dissolve. If valley-streams had not whereby they are filled, it might be feared that they would be emptied. If all beings had not whereby they live, it might be feared that they would be destroyed. If the princes and the king had not whereby they are honoured, it might be feared that they would fall. Therefore the exalted one uses the low one for his basis. Highness uses lowness for its foundation. Therefore the princes and the king designate themselves as “the Lone One” and “the Naveless One”. This is because they make lowliness their basis. Is this not so? Therefore: If one approaches a carriage in order to enumerate [its parts], he will not get a carriage. Do not want to be rare like a gem nor common like a stone. (Ⅱ) - He Shanggong (Chinese) :
昔之得一者:天得一以清,地得一以寧,神得一以靈,谷得一以盈,萬物得一以生,侯王得一以為天下貞。其致之。天無以清將恐裂,地無以寧將恐發,神無以靈將恐歇,谷無以盈將恐竭,萬物無以生將恐滅,侯王無以貴高將恐蹶。故貴以賤為本,高以下為基是以侯王自謂孤、寡、不轂。此非以賤為本邪?非乎!故致數輿無輿,不欲琭琭如玉,珞珞如石。 (Ⅲ) - Wing-Tsit Chan (1963) :
Of old those that obtained the One: Heaven obtained the One and became clear. Earth obtained the One and became tranquil. The spiritual beings obtained the One and became divine.
The valley obtained the One and became full. The myriad things obtained the One and lived and grew. Kings and barons obtained the One and became rulers of the empire. What made them so is the One.
If heaven had not thus become clear, It would soon crack. If the earth had not thus become tranquil, It would soon be shaken. If the spiritual beings had not thus become divine, They would soon wither away.
If the valley had not thus become full, It would soon become exhausted. If the myriad things had not thus lived and grown, They would soon become extinct. If kings and barons had not thus become honourable and high in position, They would soon fall.
Therefore humble station is the basis of honour. The low is the foundation of the high.
For this reason kings and barons call themselves children without parents, lonely people without spouses, and men without food to eat. Is this not regarding humble station as the basis of honour? Is it not?
Therefore enumerate all the parts of a chariot as you may, and you still have no chariot.
Rather than jingle like the jade, Rumble like the rocks. (Ⅳ) - Ellen Marie Chen (1989) :
Those of old that attain the One:
Heaven attains the One thus is clear,
Earth attains the One thus is peaceful,
Spirits attain the One thus are efficacious,
Valleys attain the One thus are replenished,
Ten thousand beings attain the One thus come to be,
Princes and barons attain the One thus are exalted in the world.
All because they attain the One.
Heaven, without that which renders it clear, might crack,
Earth, without that which renders it peaceful, might explode,
Spirits, without that which makes them efficacious, might cease,
Valleys, without that which replenishes them, might become empty,
Ten thousand beings, without that which sustains them in existence, might become extinct,
Barons and kings, without that which exalts them to high positions, might be toppled.
Therefore the exalted is rooted in the humble,
The high has the low for foundation.
Therefore barons and kings call themselves orphaned, widowed and unworthy.
Is this not taking the humble for one's root?
Is it not?
Therefore the most famous has no fame.
Do not tinkle like jade,
Or chime like stones! (Ⅴ) - World by world translation :

Achievement of oneness in the past includes:
The heaven that became clear,
The earth that became peaceful,
The soul that became sensitive,
And kings that became the world's leaders.
The following can be inferred:
The heaven will break
If it can by no means clear up;
The earth will be wasteland
If it can by no means be peaceful;
The soul will die out
If it can by no means be sensitive;
And kings will go rampant
If they can by no means lead the world.
Therefore,
Nobility is rooted in the ordinary people,
And the high is based on the low.
The kings take names
Like "the Isolated," "the Helpless," or "the Wicked,"
Just because they appreciate their roots and bases.
Therefore,
The most glorious does not seek after glory,
And the wisest does not seek to be the beautiful jade
But the unrefined rough rock. (Ⅶ) - Lynn (2004) :
As for those who obtained the One long, long ago,
Heaven is pure by having obtained the One;
Earth is stable by having obtained the One;
the gods have their spiritual power by having obtained the One;
valleys can be filled by having obtained the One;
the myriad things live by having obtained the One;
lords and princes provide constancy to all under Heaven by having obtained the One.
This is how they attain to these states.
If Heaven had not this means to be pure, it would, we fear, deteriorate.
If Earth had not this means to be stable, it would, we fear, disintegrate.
If the gods had not this means to have spiritual power, they would, we fear, terminate.
If valleys had not this means to achieve fullness, they would, we fear, dry up.
If the myriad things had not this means to live, they would, we fear, expire.
If lords and princes did not have this means to achieve loftiness and nobility, they would, we fear, collapse.
Thus it is that nobility uses humility as its roots and loftiness uses lowliness as its foundation.
This is why lords and princes refer to themselves as "the orphan," "the widower," or "the unworthy."
Is this not using humility as the roots?
Is this not so?
Therefore the ultimate number of praises amounts to no praise, so one wants neither "he glows with luster like the jade" nor "he is as hard as hard can be like the stone." (Ⅷ)
