十一年夏,宋为乘丘之役故侵我。公御之,宋师未陈而薄之,败诸鄑。
In the summer of the eleventh year, the Song Dynasty invaded me for the battle of Chengqiu. The Duke guarded him, but the Song master did not show it yet, so he defeated all the towns.
十一年夏季,宋国为了乘丘那次战役的缘故而入侵我国。庄公出兵迎战。宋国的军队还没有摆开阵势,我军就逼近压过去,在鄑(《白话左传》中作“戬”,从原文及《春秋左传注》改)地打败宋军。
In the summer of the eleventh year, the Song Dynasty invaded our country because of the battle of Chengqiu. Duke Zhuang sent troops to fight. Before the army of the Song Dynasty could get into position, our army pressed forward and defeated the Song army at the place of Jian ("Jian" in "Baihua Zuozhuan", modified from the original text and "Zuo Zhuan Notes of Chunqiu").
凡师,敌未陈曰“败某师”,皆陈曰“战”,大崩曰“败绩”,得儁(即“俊”)曰“克”,覆而败之曰“取某师”,京师败曰“王师败绩于某”。
For all divisions, if the enemy has not yet announced, it is said to "defeat a certain division", and if the enemy is defeated, it is said to be "battle", a big collapse is said to be "defeat", a handsome one (i.e. "Jun") is said to be "defeat", an overthrow and defeat is said to be "taking a certain division", and a defeat in the capital is said to be "the king's division is defeated by a certain division".
凡是作战,敌方没有摆开阵势叫做“败某师”,都摆开了阵势叫做“战”,大崩溃叫做“败绩”,俘虏敌方的勇士叫做“克”,伏兵而击败敌军叫做“取某师”,周天子的军队被打败叫做“王师败绩于某”。
In all battles, if the enemy did not set up a formation, it is called "defeating a certain division", if they all set up a formation, it is called "war", a big collapse is called "defeat", capturing the enemy's warriors is called "defeating", ambushing and defeating the enemy is called "taking a certain division", and the defeat of Emperor Zhou's army is called "the king's division was defeated by a certain".
秋,宋大水。公使吊焉,曰:“天作淫雨,害于粢盛,若之何不吊?”对曰:“孤实不敬,天降之灾,又以为君忧,拜命之辱。”臧文仲曰:“宋其兴乎。禹、汤罪己,其兴也悖焉、桀、纣罪人,其亡也忽焉。且列国有凶称孤,礼也。言惧而名礼,其庶乎。”既而闻之曰公子御说之辞也。臧孙达曰:“是宜为君,有恤民之心。”
Autumn, Song Dashui. The minister expressed his condolences and said, "It is raining from heaven, which will harm the abundance of rice. Why not condone it?" He said to him, "It is disrespectful to be honest and disrespectful. It is a disaster from heaven. I also think that you are worried about the emperor and humiliated by your fate." Zang Wenzhong said: "The Song Dynasty was prosperous. "Huh. Yu and Tang sinned against themselves, and their rise also violated Yan, Jie, and Zhou's sins, and their death was also sudden. Moreover, there were fierce people in the country, and they were called rites because of their fear." After hearing this, he said what the prince said. Zang Sunda said: "It is appropriate for you to be a king who has the heart to care for the people."
秋季,宋国发大水。庄公派使者去慰问,说:“上天降下大雨,危害了庄稼,为什么不慰问呢?”宋闵公回答说:“我对于上天不诚敬,上天降灾,还使贵国国君担忧,承蒙关注,实不敢当。”臧文仲说:“宋国恐怕要兴盛了吧!禹、汤责罚自己,他们勃然兴起;桀、纣责罚别人,他们马上灭亡。而且别国发生灾荒,国君称孤,这是合于礼的。言语有所戒惧而名称合于礼制,这就差不多了吧!”不久,又听说上面那番话是公子御说所说的,臧孙达说:“这个人适合当国君,因为他有体恤百姓的心思。”
In autumn, floods occurred in the Song Dynasty. Zhuang Gong sent an envoy to express condolences and said: "It rained heavily from the sky and harmed the crops. Why don't you express condolences?" Song Mingong replied: "I am not sincere to God. God brings disasters and makes the king of your country worried. I really don't deserve the attention." Zang Wenzhong said: "The Song Dynasty is probably going to prosper! Yu and Tang punished themselves, and they rose up in anger; Jie and Zhou punished others, and they perished immediately. Moreover, when there was a famine in other countries, it was in line with etiquette for the king to have a warning and a name that was in line with etiquette. That's enough!" Soon, he heard that the above words were said by the prince, and Zang Sunda said: "This man is suitable to be a king because he has a caring mind for the people."
冬,齐侯来逆共姬。
In winter, the Marquis of Qi came to defy Gongji.
冬季,齐桓公来鲁国迎娶共姬。
In winter, Duke Huan of Qi came to the state of Lu to marry his concubine.
乘丘之役,公之金仆姑射南宫长万,公右遄孙生搏之。宋人请之,宋公靳之,曰:“始吾敬子,今子,鲁囚也。吾弗敬子矣。”病之。
At the battle of Chengqiu, the Duke's golden servant shot at Chang Wan of the Nangong Palace, and the Duke's right-handed Sun Sun struck him. The people of the Song Dynasty invited him, and Duke Jin of the Song Dynasty said to him: "At first I respected your son, but now you are a prisoner of Lu. I cannot respect your son." He was ill.
在乘丘战役中,庄公用叫金仆姑的箭射中南宫长万,庄公的车右歂孙活捉了长万。宋国人请求把南宫长万释放回国。长万是力气极大的人,宋闵公开玩笑说:“原来我尊敬你,如今你成了鲁国的囚犯,所以我便不敬重你了。”南宫长万因此而怀恨他。
In the battle of Chengqiu, Duke Zhuang shot Chang Wan of Nangong with an arrow called Jin Pugu, and Duke Zhuang's chariot You Xiansun captured Chang Wan alive. The people of the Song Dynasty requested that Nangong Changwan be released and returned to the country. Chang Wan was a very powerful man. Song Mingong joked: "I respected you before, but now you have become a prisoner of Lu State, so I don't respect you anymore." Nangong Chang Wan hated him for this.
