Chapter 39
Evryting Wa Nid di Waan
Original
其致之，天无以清将恐裂，地无以宁将恐发，神无以灵将恐歇，谷无以盈将恐竭，万物无以生将恐灭，侯王无以贵高将恐蹶。
故贵以贱为本，高以下为基。是以侯王自称孤、寡、不谷。此非以贱为本邪？非乎？故致数誉无誉。不欲琭琭如玉，珞珞如石。
Translieshan
Hevn get di Waan so it kin be clere,
Erda get di Waan so it kin be stil,
Spirits get di Waan so dem kin be arf,
Valley dem get di Waan so dem kin be ful op,
Evry creature wey mek so dem kin live,
King dem get di Waan so dem cud rule rightly.
But wen yo tink bout it:
Ef hevn lose it cudn't be clere, it wud just brek op,
Ef erda lose it cudn't be stil, it wud shake,
Ef spirits lose it cudn't be arf, dem wud jus stop,
Ef valley dem lose it cudn't be ful, dem wud dre op,
Ef all we cudn't live, evryting wud dead,
Ef king dem lose it cudn't be great, dem wud fall dung.
So yu se, wa mek yu great i di humble one ya,
Yu status high i cause di one wey low.
Dat weh king dem call demselves - 'di one wey lonesome,' 'di one wey have nuttn,' 'di one wey neva get nuffin.'
It mean say dem know sey di low one i di foundation!
If yu chrap tap tap fi get praise, yu cyaan get reepect.
Nuh be like di fancy sune stone wey everybody waan opicka.
Jus be like di regular raga stone wey evrybody tap dung.
