Chapter 29

Nuh Teck Hoon & Try Kontrol Evryting

将欲取天下而为之,吾见其不得已。天下神器,不可为也。为者败之,执者失之。
故物或行或随,或嘘或吹,或强或羸,或挫或隳。
是以圣人去甚,去奢,去泰。
Wa unu waan gi demself di whole worl an siki fi mek evryting go wa unu waan iivri time, mi se it nuh go work. Di worl sama wa a potom ar da几年的陈年老茶, no nuttn we una fi mek an shape an contro.

Dis chapter teach se di worl caan be tek an controll like some big ting wa unu fi own. Di universe op itself like a sacred potom, an wa mek wi mek wid i, i mek i worse. Wen tings mek demself too big an too strong, dem gwine eventually fall. Evryting an evrybody pan dis ya earth idaan flow togeda in a kind a balance - som leading, som following, som yinna cold, som yinna warm. Nuh single person or power caan Mek evryting bow.
