【Biography】
十八年春，白狄始来。
In the spring of the eighteenth year, Bai Di began to arrive.
十八年春季，白狄第一次来鲁国。
In the spring of the eighteenth year, Bai Di came to Lu for the first time.
夏，晋人执卫行人石买于长子，执孙蒯于纯留，为曹故也。
In the Xia Dynasty, the people of Jin were responsible for guarding the pedestrians Shi Maiyu, their eldest son, and their grandson Kuai Yu Chunliu, who was Cao Guye.
夏季，晋国人在长子拘捕了卫国的行人石买，在纯留拘捕了孙蒯，这是为了曹国的缘故。
In the summer, the people of Jin arrested Shi Mai, a traveler of Wei State, in the eldest son, and Sun Kuai in Chunliu, for the sake of Cao State.
秋，齐侯伐我北鄙。中行献子将伐齐，梦与厉公讼，弗胜，公以戈击之，首队于前，跪而戴之，奉之以走，见梗阳之巫皋。他日，见诸道，与之言，同。巫曰：“今兹主必死，若有事于东方，则可以逞。”献子许诺。
In autumn, the Marquis of Qi attacked me in the north. Zhongxian Xianzi was about to attack the Qi Dynasty. Meng and Li Gong sued, but he couldn't win. The Duke attacked him with a spear. The first team knelt in front of him and wore it. He followed it and walked away. They saw Wu Gao from Gangyang. In the future, I will see all the ways and talk to them, and they will be the same. The witch said: "Now the Lord will die. If there is something to happen to the east, he can succeed." Xianzi promised.
秋季，齐灵公进攻我国北部边境。中行献子准备进攻齐国，梦见和晋厉公争讼，没有胜诉。晋厉公用戈打他，脑袋在前面掉下来，跪下来安在脖子上，两手捧着他的头走路，见到梗阳的巫皋。过了几天，在路上遇见巫皋，中行献子和他谈起做梦的情况，居然和巫皋梦见的相同。巫皋说：“今年您一定要死，如果在东边有战事，那是可以如愿的。”中行献子答应了。
In autumn, Qi Linggong attacked the northern border of our country. Zhongxianzi was preparing to attack Qi, but he dreamed that he had a lawsuit with Duke Li of Jin, but he failed to win. Duke Li of Jin struck him with a gun, and his head fell off in front of him. He knelt down and placed it on his neck. He held his head in both hands and walked until he saw Wu Gao from Ganyang. A few days later, I met Wu Gao on the road. BOC Xianzi talked to him about his dream, which was actually the same as what Wu Gao had dreamed about. Wu Gao said: "You must die this year. If there is a war in the east, your wish can be fulfilled." Bank of China Xianzi agreed.
晋侯伐齐，将济河。献子以朱丝系玉二瑴(jué,双玉)，而祷曰：“齐环怙恃其险，负其众庶，弃好背盟，陵虐神主。曾臣彪将率诸侯以讨焉，其官臣偃实先后之。苟捷有功，无作神羞，官臣偃无敢复济。唯尔有神裁之！”沉玉而济。
The Marquis of Jin attacked Qi and led to the Jihe River. Xianzi tied two jade jade (jué, double jade) with red silk, and prayed: "Qi Huan's parents were in danger, betrayed their common people, abandoned their good friends, betrayed their alliance, and tortured the god. General Zeng Chenbiao led the princes to challenge Yan, and his officials and officials Yan Shi followed him one after another. Gou Jie has meritorious service, but he is not ashamed of being a god. Officials and officials Yan have no courage to revive. Only you have the divine decree!" Shen Yu and Ji.
晋平公发兵进攻齐国，将要渡过黄河，中行献子用朱丝系着两对玉而祷告说：“齐国的环靠着地形险要，仗着人多，丢弃好友违背盟誓，欺凌虐待百姓。陪臣彪将要率领诸侯去讨伐，他的官臣偃在前后辅助，如果得到成功，不要使神灵羞耻，官臣偃不敢再次渡河。惟你神灵加以制裁。”把玉沉入黄河然后渡河。
Duke Ping of Jin sent troops to attack the State of Qi and was about to cross the Yellow River. Zhongxian Xianzi tied two pairs of jade with red silk and prayed: "The state of Qi relies on the difficult terrain and relies on the number of people. It abandons friends, violates the oath of alliance, bullies and abuses the people. Accompany Chen Biao will lead the princes to attack, and his officials and officials will assist him. If he succeeds, don't shame the gods. Officials and officials will not dare to cross the river again, but you, the gods, will punish him. "Sink the jade into the Yellow River and then cross the river.
冬十月，会于鲁济，寻湨梁之言，同伐齐。齐侯御诸平阴，堑防门而守之，广里。夙沙卫曰：“不能战，莫如守险。”弗听。诸侯之士门焉，齐人多死。范宣子告析文子曰：“吾知子，敢匿情乎？鲁人、莒人皆请以车千乘自其乡入，既许之矣。若入，君必失国。子盍图之？”子家以告公，公恐。晏婴闻之曰：“君固无勇，而又闻是，弗能久矣。”齐侯登巫山以望晋师。晋人使司马斥山泽之险，虽所不至，必旗而疏陈之。使乘车者左实右伪，以旗先，舆曳柴而从之。齐侯见之，畏其众也，乃脱归。丙寅晦，齐师夜遁。师旷告晋侯曰：“鸟乌之声乐，齐师其遁。”邢伯告中行伯曰：“有班马之声，齐师其遁。”叔向告晋侯曰：“城上有乌，齐师其遁。”
In the tenth month of winter, we met at Luji to seek advice from Jian and Liang, and to attack Qi together. The Marquis of Qi guarded the Pingyin, guarding the gates with trenches and wide li. Su Shawei said: "If you can't fight, it's better to stay in danger." He didn't listen. The feudal lords have many scholars, and many people in Qi will die. Fan Xuanzi told Wenzi: "I know you, do you dare to hide your love? The people of Lu and Ju will come from their hometowns with thousands of chariots, and you have agreed to it. If you enter, you will lose your country. Is Ziyong planning to do it?" The Zi family reported to the public, and the public was afraid. When Yan Ying heard about it, he said, "You have no courage, and you have heard about it, so you can't last long." The Marquis of Qi climbed Wu Mountain to see the Jin army. The people of Jin sent Sima to denounce the dangers of the mountains and swamps. Although they could not reach them, they would set up flags and clear them away. Make the rider's left side true and right right false, with the flag leading first, and the carriage following behind, dragging the firewood. When the Marquis of Qi saw him, he was afraid of the crowd, so he escaped and returned. Bingyin is dark, and Master Qi escapes at night. Shi Kuang told the Marquis of Jin: "The sound of birds and crows makes Qi Shi flee." Xingbo told Zhong Xingbo: "There is the sound of horses and horses, Qi Shi flees." Uncle Xiang told the Marquis of Jin: "There are crows on the city, Qi Shi flees."
冬季，十月，鲁襄公和晋平公、宋平公、卫殇公、郑简公、曹成公、莒子、邾子、滕子、薛伯、杞伯、小邾子在鲁国济水上会见，重温湨梁的盟誓，一起进攻齐国。齐灵公在平阴抵御，在防门外挖壕据守，壕沟的长度有一里。夙沙卫说：“如果不能作战，还不如扼守险要为好。”齐灵公不听。诸侯的士兵进攻防门，齐军战死很多人。范宣子告诉析文子说：“我了解您，难道敢隐瞒情况吗？鲁国人、莒国人都请求带一千辆战车从他们那里一往西北，一往东北打进去，我们已经答应了。如果攻进来，贵国君王必然丢掉国家。您何不考虑一下！”析文子把这些话告诉齐灵公，齐灵公听了十分恐惧。晏婴听到了，说：“国君本来没有勇气，而又听到了这些话，活不了多久了。”齐灵公登上巫山观望晋。晋国人派司马排除山林河泽的险阻，虽然是军队达不到的地方，也一定树起大旗而稀疏地布置军阵。让战车左边坐上真人而右边放上伪装的人，用大旗前导，战车后面拖上木柴跟着走。齐灵公看到，害怕晋军人多，就离开军队脱身回去。二十九日，齐军夜里逃走。师旷告诉晋平公说：“乌鸦的声音愉快，齐军恐怕逃走了。”邢伯告诉中行献子说：“有马匹盘旋不进的声音，齐军恐怕逃走了。”叔向告诉晋平公说：“城上有乌鸦，齐军恐怕逃走了。”
In winter, in October, Duke Xiang of Lu and Duke Ping of Jin, Duke Ping of Song, Duke Wei Shang, Duke Jiang of Zheng, Duke Cao Cheng, Ju Zi, Zhu Zi, Teng Zi, Xue Bo, Qi Bo, and Xiao Zhuzi met on the Jishui River in the state of Lu to review the oath of alliance between Ji and Liang and attack Qi together. Qi Linggong resisted in Pingyin and dug a trench outside the defense gate. The length of the trench was one mile. Su Shawei said: "If you can't fight, it's better to guard the danger." Qi Linggong didn't listen. The soldiers of the princes attacked the defense gate, and many Qi soldiers died in the battle. Fan Xuanzi told Xiwenzi: "I know you, how dare you hide the situation? The people of Lu and Ju have requested to bring a thousand chariots from them to the northwest and northeast, and we have agreed. If we attack, your king will definitely lose the country. Why don't you think about it!" Xiwenzi told Qi Linggong these words, and Qi Linggong was very frightened. Yan Ying heard this and said, "The king has no courage, but after hearing these words, he will not live long." Qi Linggong climbed to Wushan to watch Jin. The people of Jin sent Sima to eliminate the dangers of mountains, forests, rivers and swamps. Even though the place was beyond the reach of the army, they still set up large flags and deployed military formations sparsely. Let the real people sit on the left side of the chariot and the disguised people on the right side. Use the big flag to lead the way, and drag the firewood behind the chariot to follow. When Qi Linggong saw it, he was afraid that there were too many Jin soldiers, so he left the army and went back. On the 29th, the Qi army fled at night. Shi Kuang told Duke Ping of Jin: "The crows are making happy noises, so the Qi army may have escaped." Xingbo told Xianzi of the Bank of China, "There are sounds of horses circling, so the Qi army may have escaped." Shu Xiang told Duke Ping of Jin, "There are crows on the city, and the Qi army may have escaped."
十一月丁卯朔，入平阴，遂従齐师。夙沙卫连大车以塞隧而殿。殖绰、郭最曰：“子殿国师，齐之辱也。子姑先乎！”乃代之殿。卫杀马于隘以塞道。晋州绰及之，射殖绰，中肩，两矢夹脰（dòu，脖子，颈），曰：“止，将为三军获。不止，将取其衷。”顾曰：“为私誓。”州绰曰：“有如日！”乃弛弓而自后缚之。其右具丙亦舍兵而缚郭最，皆衿甲面缚，坐于中军之鼓下。
In November, Dingmaoshuo entered Pingyin and joined the Qi army. Susha Weilian's cart was blocked in the tunnel and the hall was built. Zhuchuo and Guo Zui said: "The imperial master of Zidian is a disgrace to Qi. Zigu came first!" It was the palace of Dai. The guards killed the horses in the pass to block the road. Jinzhou Chuo reached it, shot Zhongchuo, hit the shoulder, and caught the dòu (neck, neck) with two arrows. He said: "If you stop, we will capture it for the three armies. If you don't stop, we will take the heart." Gu said: "It's a private oath." Zhou Chuo said: "It's like the sun!" He relaxed his bow and tied it from behind. On the right, Gu Bing also abandoned his troops and bound Guo Zui. They were all tied up with their armored faces and sat under the drum of the central army.
十一月初一日，晋军进入平阴，于是就追赶齐军。夙沙卫拉着大车，堵塞山里的小路然后自己作为殿后。殖绰、郭最说：“您来作为国家军队的殿后，这是齐国的耻辱。您姑且先走吧！”便代他殿后。夙沙卫杀了马匹放在狭路上来堵塞道路。晋国的州绰追上来，用箭射殖绰，射中肩膀，两枝箭夹着脖子。州绰说：“停下别跑，你还可以被我军俘虏；不停，我将会向你心口射一箭。”殖绰回过头来说：“你发誓。”州绰说：“有太阳为证！”于是就把弓弦解下来而从后边捆绑殖绰的手，他的车右具丙也放下武器而捆绑郭最，都不解除盔甲从后面捆绑，他们坐在中军的战鼓下边。
On the first day of November, the Jin army entered Pingyin and pursued the Qi army. Sushawei pulled the cart, blocked the mountain roads, and then acted as the rear guard. Zhu Chuo and Guo Zui said: "It is a shame for Qi that you come to serve as the queen of the national army. You can go first!" They took his place as the queen. Sushawei killed the horses and put them on the narrow road to block the road. Zhou Chuo of Jin State caught up with him and shot Xucho Chuo in the shoulder. Two arrows caught his neck. Zhou Chuo said: "Stop and don't run, you can still be captured by our army; if you don't stop, I will shoot an arrow into your heart." Zhu Chuo turned around and said, "You swear." Zhou Chuo said, "The sun is proof!" Then he untied the bow string and tied Zhu Chuo's hands from behind. His chariot's right guard, Tou Bing, also put down his weapons and tied Guo Zui, without taking off his armor, and tied them from behind. They sat under the war drums of the Chinese army.
晋人欲逐归者，鲁、卫请攻险。己卯，荀偃、士匄以中军克京兹。乙酉，魏绛、栾盈以下军克邿。赵武、韩起以上军围卢，弗克。十二月戊戌，及秦周，伐雍门之萩。范鞅门于雍门，其御追喜以戈杀犬于门中。孟庄子斩其以为公琴。己亥，焚雍门及西郭、南郭。刘难、士弱率诸侯之师焚申池之竹木。壬寅，焚东郭、北郭。范鞅门于扬门。州绰门于东闾，左骖迫，还于门中，以枚数阖。
When the Jin people wanted to drive those back, Lu and Wei invited them to attack. Ji Mao, Xun Yan and Shi Gai used the Chinese army to conquer Jingzi. Yiyou, Wei Jiang and Luan Ying's troops defeated Yi. Zhao Wu and Han Qi surrounded Lu and Fuke with their troops. In the twelfth month of the Wuxu period, during the Qin and Zhou Dynasties, the Hagi of Yongmen was attacked. Fan Yang's gate was at Yongmen, and his emperor chased him and killed the dog in the gate with his sword. Meng Zhuangzi cut it and thought it was a public harp. In Jihai, Yongmen, Xiguo and Nanguo were burned. Liu Nan and Shi Ruo led the princes' troops to burn the bamboos and trees in Shenchi. Renyin burned Dongguo and Beiguo. Fan Yangmen and Yangmen. Zhou Chuo's gate is in the east, and it is forced to the left. It is also in the middle of the gate, and it is closed with several pieces.
晋国人要追赶逃兵，鲁国、卫国请求进攻险要的地方。十三日，荀偃、士匄带领中军攻下京兹。十九日，魏绛、栾盈带领下军攻下邿地；赵武、韩起带领上军包围卢地，没有攻下。十二月初二日，到达秦周地方，砍伐了雍门外边的萩木。范鞅进攻雍门，他的御者追喜用戈在门里杀死一条狗。孟庄子砍下橁木制作颂琴。初三日，放火烧毁了雍门和西边、南边的外城。刘难、士弱率领诸侯的军队放火烧了申池边上的竹子树木。初六日，放火烧了东边、北边的外城，范鞅攻打扬门。州绰攻打东闾，左边的骖马由于拥挤而不能前进，回到门里盘旋，停留很久，把城门门扇上的铜钉都数清楚了。
The people of Jin wanted to pursue the deserters, and the people of Lu and Wei requested to attack dangerous places. On the 13th, Xun Yan and Shi Gai led the Chinese army to capture Jingzi. On the 19th, Wei Jiang and Luan Ying led the lower army to capture Ludi; Zhao Wu and Han Qi led the upper army to surround Ludi but failed to capture it. On the second day of the twelfth lunar month, he arrived at Qinzhou and cut down the Hagi trees outside Yongmen. When Fan Yang attacked Yongmen, his charioteer Zhui Xi killed a dog inside the gate with his sword. Meng Zhuangzi cut down the wood of the harps to make the lute. On the third day of the lunar month, Yongmen and the outer city to the west and south were set on fire. Liu Nan and Shi Ruo led the troops of the princes to set fire to the bamboo trees beside Shenchi. On the sixth day of the lunar month, they set fire to the outer city in the east and north, and Fan Yang attacked Yangmen. When Zhou Chuo attacked Donglu, the horse on the left could not advance due to crowding. He circled back to the gate and stayed for a long time, counting all the copper nails on the door leaf of the city gate.
齐侯驾，将走邮棠。大子与郭荣扣马，曰：“师速而疾，略也。将退矣，君何惧焉！且社稷之主，不可以轻，轻则失众。君必待之。”将犯之，大子抽剑断鞅，乃止。甲辰，东侵及潍，南及沂。
The Marquis of Qi is about to leave Youtang. The eldest son and Guo Rong buckled their horses and said: "The master is quick and quick, and he is a little bit cautious. He is about to retreat, why should you be afraid! And the leader of the country must not take it lightly, otherwise he will lose the crowd. You will definitely treat him." When he was about to be violated, the eldest son drew his sword and cut the martingale, and then stopped. In Jiachen, they invaded Wei in the east and Yi in the south.
齐灵公驾了车，准备逃到邮棠去。太子和郭荣牵住马，说：“诸侯的兵行动快速而且勇敢，这是在掠取物资，将要退走了，君王害怕什么？而且国家之主不能逃走，逃走就会失去大众。君王一定要等着！”齐灵公准备冲向前去，太子抽出剑来砍断马缰，这才停了下来。初八日，诸侯的军队向东边进攻到达潍水，南边到达沂水。
Qi Linggong drove his car and prepared to escape to Youtang. The prince and Guo Rong held the horse and said: "The princes' soldiers are moving quickly and bravely. They are plundering supplies and are about to retreat. What are you afraid of? And the head of the country cannot escape. If you run away, you will lose the people. The king must wait!" Qi Linggong was about to rush forward, but the prince drew his sword and cut off the horse's reins, and then stopped. On the eighth day of the lunar month, the armies of the princes attacked to the east and reached Weishui, and to the south to Yishui.
郑子孔欲去诸大夫，将叛晋而起楚师以去之。使告子庚，子庚弗许。楚子闻之，使杨豚尹宜告子庚曰：“国人谓不谷主社稷，而不出师，死不従礼。不谷即位，于今五年，师徒不出，人其以不谷为自逸，而忘先君之业矣。大夫图之！其若之何？”子庚叹曰：“君王其谓午怀安乎！吾以利社稷也。”见使者，稽首而对曰：“诸侯方睦于晋，臣请尝之。若可，君而继之。不可，收师而退，可以无害，君亦无辱。”子庚帅师治兵于汾。于是子蟜、伯有、子张従郑伯伐齐，子孔、子展、子西守。二子知子孔之谋，完守入保。子孔不敢会楚师。
Zheng Zikong wanted to get rid of the officials, so he rebelled against Jin and raised Chu troops to go there. The envoy informed Zigeng, but Zigeng refused. When Chuzi heard about it, he sent Yang Dou Yinyi to tell Zi Geng: "The people of the country say that Bu Gu dominates the country and does not go out as a teacher, and he will die without paying tribute. Bu Gu came to the throne, and in the past five years, his master and disciples have not been out. People think that Bu Gu is self-satisfied and forgets the legacy of the ancestors. The doctor plans it! What is the reason?" Zi Geng? He sighed and said: "Your Majesty, you say that you are in peace at noon! I am doing it to benefit the country." When he saw the envoy, he looked at his head and said to him: "The princes are in harmony with the Jin Dynasty. Please taste it. If it is possible, the king will follow. If not, it will not harm you and you will not be harmed by withdrawing the troops." Zi Geng commanded the troops in Fen. So Zizhong, Boyou, and Zizhang led Zheng Bo to attack Qi, while Zikong, Zizhan, and Zixi defended the territory. The second son knew about Zi Kong's plan and completely defended it. Zi Kong did not dare to meet Master Chu.
郑国的子孔想要除掉大夫们，准备背叛晋国然后发动楚国军队来除掉他们。派人告诉子庚，子庚不答应。楚康王听说了这件事，派扬豚尹宜告诉子庚说：“国内的人们认为我主持国政而不出兵，死后就不能用规定的礼仪安葬祭祀。我即位后，到现在五年，军队不出动，人们恐怕认为我只顾自己安逸而忘了先君的霸业了。大夫考虑一下，怎么办？”子庚叹气说：“君王恐怕认为午是贪图安逸吧！我这样做是为了有利于国家啊。”接见使者，叩头然后回答：“诸侯正和晋国和睦，下臣请求试探一下。如果可行，君王就跟着来。如果不行，收兵而退回去，可以没有损害，君王也不会受到羞辱。” 子庚率领军队在汾地颁发武器。当时子蟜、伯有、子张跟从郑简公进攻齐国，子孔、子展、子西留守。子展、子西两个人知道子孔的策略，就加强守备入城坚守。子孔不敢和楚军会合。
Zi Kong of Zheng wanted to get rid of the officials, and planned to betray Jin and then mobilize the Chu army to get rid of them. He sent someone to tell Zi Geng, but Zi Geng refused. King Chu Kang heard about this and sent Yang Dou Yin Yi to tell Zi Geng: "People in the country think that I preside over the state affairs and do not send troops. After my death, I cannot be buried with the prescribed etiquette. Since I have not sent out troops for five years since I came to the throne, people may think that I only care about my own comfort and forget the hegemony of my ancestors. Doctor, think about it, what should I do?" Geng sighed and said, "I'm afraid the king thinks that Wu is greedy for comfort! I am doing this to benefit the country." After receiving the envoy, he kowtowed and replied: "The princes are at peace with the state of Jin. I would like to test it out. If it works, the king will follow. If not, withdraw the troops and retreat. There will be no harm and the king will not be humiliated." Zigeng led the army to issue weapons in Fendi. At that time, Ziyu, Boyou, and Zizhang followed Zheng Jiangong to attack the state of Qi, while Zikon, Zizhan, and Zixi stayed behind. Zizhan and Zixi knew Zikong's strategy, so they strengthened their defense and entered the city to hold on. Zi Kong did not dare to join the Chu army.
楚师伐郑，次于鱼陵。右师城上棘，遂涉颍，次于旃然。蒍子冯、公子格率锐师侵费滑、胥靡、献于、雍梁，右回梅山，侵郑东北，至于虫牢而反。子庚门于纯门，信于城下而还。涉于鱼齿之下，甚雨及之，楚师多冻，役徒几尽。
When the Chu army attacked Zheng, it was inferior to Yuling. On the right side of the city, there are thorns, and then they cross Ying, followed by Zhanran. Chiang Zifeng and Gongzige led their elite troops to invade Feihua, Xumi, Xianyu, and Yongliang. They returned to Meishan on the right and invaded the northeast of Zhengzhou. They turned back when they reached Chonglao. Zigeng's gate was in Chunmen, and he returned to the city in faith. When it was exposed to the fish's teeth, heavy rain hit it, and the Chu army was very cold, and many of its servants were wiped out.
楚军进攻郑国，驻扎在鱼陵。右翼部队在上棘筑城，就徒步渡过颍水，驻扎在旃然水边。蒍子冯、公子格率领精锐部队攻打费滑、胥靡、献于、雍梁，向右绕过梅山，入侵郑国东北部，到达虫牢然后回去。子庚进攻纯门，在城下住了两晚然后回去。军队渡过鱼齿山下的滍水，遇到大雨，楚军大多被冻坏，服杂役的人几乎死光。
The Chu army attacked Zheng Guo and stationed in Yuling. The right-wing troops built a city at Shangji, crossed the Ying River on foot, and stationed themselves at the Zhanran River. Jiang Zifeng and Gong Zige led their elite troops to attack Fei Hua, Xu Mi, Xianyu and Yongliang. They bypassed Meishan to the right, invaded the northeastern part of Zheng State, reached Chonglao and then returned. Zigeng attacked Chunmen, stayed under the city for two nights and then returned. When the army crossed the Nishui River at the foot of Yuya Mountain, it encountered heavy rain. Most of the Chu army was frozen, and almost all the people doing chores died.
晋人闻有楚师，师旷曰：“不害。吾骤歌北风，又歌南风。南风不竞，多死声。楚必无功。”董叔曰：“天道多在西北，南师不时，必无功。”叔向曰：“在其君之德也。”
When the people of Jin heard that there was a Chu army, Shi Kuang said: "No harm. I suddenly sing to the north wind, and then to the south wind. If the south wind does not compete, there will be many deaths. Chu will have no merit." Dong Shu said: "The way of heaven is mostly in the northwest, and if the southern army does not come from time to time, there will be no merit." Shu Xiang said: "This is because of the virtue of his ruler."
晋国人听到楚国出兵，师旷说：“没有妨害。我屡次歌唱北方的曲调，又歌唱南方的曲调。南方的曲调不强，象征死亡的声音很多。楚国一定不能建功。”董叔说：“天象在于西北。南方的军队不合天时，一定不能建功。”叔向说：“决定胜负还在于他们国君的德行。”
When the people of Jin heard that Chu was sending troops, Shi Kuang said: "There is no harm. I have repeatedly sung northern tunes and southern tunes. The southern tunes are not strong, and there are many sounds that symbolize death. Chu will definitely not be able to make meritorious deeds." Dong Shu said: "The sky is in the northwest. When the southern army is not in harmony with the sky, it will definitely not be able to make meritorious deeds." Shu Xiang said: "The victory or defeat depends on the virtue of their monarch."
