    Translations. Providence and man-made principles are the same. When people finish one thing, they have nothing to do, and then they blame it on providence.

    For example, if a farmer is farming, but he has worked hard but encounters a flood or drought, it can be said that God has really starved him. For example, if a doctor treats a disease, but he has used good medicine but has not been able to cure the patient, then it can be said that God has really caused the patient to die.

    Now I haven't worked hard but complain that God is not good in life, and I haven't put good medicine but blame God for asking for my life, will this work? The ancient gentlemen, because they did not understand the will of heaven, could do their best for personnel. Therefore, when an official in the court suddenly encounters an unusual change, when he sees the truth of what is about to happen, he must strive to save and prevent it from happening, even if he is convicted and dies without regret.

    This kind of thinking shows that I know how to do my best. Fortunately, the monarch at that time listened to the advice and was able to turn the crisis into safety, ** know that this is a man-made reason and not a providential act?

    If it is unfortunate that the king did not follow the advice until he was convicted and died, and then blamed it on helplessness, saying, "This is the will of God, not something that can be done by man," the gentleman would have no regrets.

    Original. The principle of heaven and man is also one. Personnel are exhausted, as for helplessness, and then it can be returned to heaven.

    For example, if a farmer governs the field, the work of cultivation has come and there is a drought in the face of floods and droughts, but it can be said that the sky is really hungry; The doctor's treatment of the disease, the power of the medicine stone is not enough, but it can be said that the heaven is really dead. Now I haven't tried hard to work hard and look at the sky, and I haven't tried to throw medicine stones and blame the sky, what can it be? The ancient gentleman is unknowable in the sky, and he is in the man.

    Therefore, the dynasty of the founding of the people, when it encounters extraordinary changes, and the reason of the matter will be, it will strive to save it, although it is offended to die without regret. It means: I just know all about my wife.

    Fortunately, when you listen to it, you can turn the danger into survival, and you can know that people are not heavenly? If you are unfortunate and do not listen, as for the offense and death, then you can attribute it to helplessness, saying "Heaven is also beyond the power of man", and the gentleman has no regrets.

    On the basis of the translation of "honghanyou", some modifications are made, and strive to be faithful, reachable, and elegant.

    Providence and man-made principles are the same. [Providence and man-made (influencing the outcome of things) have the same effect. People do their best and still have nothing to do, and then they can blame it on providence.

    It is like a farmer who has worked hard and is hit by a flood or a drought, so that God really wants to make him hungry. For example, if a doctor treats a disease, but has used good medicine but cannot cure the patient, it can be said that God really wants the patient to die. Now I haven't worked hard but complain that God is not good in life, and I haven't used good medicine but blame God for asking for my life, can this work? The ancient gentleman, because the will of heaven is incompatible, can do his best for personnel.

    Therefore, when an official in the court suddenly encounters an unusual change, when he realizes the reason and the development of the situation, he will definitely try to save and prevent it from happening, and even if he is convicted and dies, he will not regret it. It's called: I just know how to do my best.

    What if the monarch was fortunate enough to follow the advice and be able to turn the tide of safety, knowing that this was man-made and not providential? If it is unfortunate that the king did not follow the advice until he was convicted and died, then he could blame it on helplessness and say, "This is the will of God, not human power", and the gentleman will have no regrets.

    The places of modification are:

    1. The principle of providence and man-made is the same (the role of providence and man-made (influencing the outcome of things) is the same. This sentence is easy to translate, but it is not easy to understand, combined with the full text, this thing should be about "things are man-made", people should not give up subjective efforts in the face of fate, should do their best, and obey the destiny of heaven.

    2. People finish doing one thing, and they are helpless (people do their best to do things, but they are still helpless,).

    3. Only then can it be said that God really makes him hungry (only then can it be said that God really wants to make him hungry).

    4. Put good medicine (use good medicine).

    5. Wait until you are aware of what is going to happen (wait until you are aware of the truth and the development of the situation).

    6. Fortunately the monarch at that time (if you are fortunate enough to be the monarch at that time).

    7. This kind of thinking shows: (This kind of thinking is called).

    The truth of God and man is the same. If you try your best to do a good job in personnel but the result is not satisfactory, you can blame God for this result, just like a farmer who farms a field and encounters a flood and drought when he is about to harvest it, it can be said that God wants him to starve. The doctor treats the disease, and the efficacy of the medicine has reached (after using the drug) and it still does not improve, so it can be said that God wants him to die.

    But if we don't do our best to cultivate now and put the hope of a good harvest on God, and instead of using medicine (healing) to put the blame on God, is it okay? In ancient times, the gentleman worked hard to fulfill his personnel because of the incomprehensible will of God, so he stayed in the court, even if he suddenly encountered an extraordinary change, he should find out the future trend of things in time, and he must try his best to save or stop it. Even if he offends the monarch and is executed, he does not regret his original intention, this is what I call doing my best...

    Tired..
