Lin Yutang's Translation:
Out of Tao, One is born;
Out of One, Two;
Out of Two, Three;
Out of Three, the created universe.
The created universe carries the yin at its back
and the yang in front;
Through the union of the pervading principles it
reaches harmony.
To be "orphaned," "lonely" and "unworthy" is what men hate most.
Yet the princes and dukes call themselves by such names.
For sometimes things are benefited by being taken away from,
And suffer by being added to.
Others have taught this maxim,
Which I shall teach also:
"The violent man shall die a violent death."
This I shall regard as my spiritual teacher.
Toki Pona Translation:
nasin li pali e kon.
kon li pali e pimeja e walo.
pimeja en walo li pali e pimeja walo.
pimeja walo li pali e ijo ali.
pimeja li lon monsi pi ijo ali. walo li lon sinpin pi ijo ali.
pimeja en walo li kama wan la ali li kama pona.
mama ala en jan pona ala en pan ala li ike tawa jan.
jan lawa li awen e nimi mute ni.
weka la ijo li kama suli.
sin la ijo li kama lili.
jan ante li pana e sona ni,
mi kin li pana e sona ni:
jan utala li kama sona e moli utala.
ni li sona mama tawa mi.
Toki Telo Translation:
Tao lon pali wi kon e
kon lon pali wi sine e sane e
sine en sane lon pali wi sine sane e
sine sane lon pali wi ijo ali e
monsi pi ijo alo lon sine lon. sinpin pi ijo ali lon sane lon
sine en sane lon mopi wan wi la ali tan peliko pilin
jan lon simo pilin ni tan: mama ala lon jan poka
ala lon pan ala lon
jan lawa lon awen wi nimi mute ni e
weka wi la ijo lon suli wi
sin wi la ijo lon lili wi.
jan ante lon pana wi sona ni e
mi kin lon pana wi sona ni e:
jan utala lon mopi sona ala wi moli ona e
