King Hui of Liang watched the cook dissecting an ox. Up went his hand, down went the knife, cutting it just right with dexterous movements.

梁惠王看厄丁解牛，手起刀落，动作利索，恰到好处。

The King praised: “Your skill is excellent!”

连声夸奖说：“你的技术真是太好了!”

The cook answered: "1 can do it so dexterously because I am familiar with the physiological structure of the ox.

厄丁答道: “我所以能干得这样利索，是因为熟悉牛的生理结构。

I see perfectly well each and every part of the ox which is no longer a whole ox to me.

现在，我看到的牛已经不是一头全牛了。

I have a clear mental picture of where its joints and main and collateral channels are, and know exactly where to start cutting and how much force is needed."

哪里是关节?哪里有经络?从哪里下刀?需要用多大的力气?我胸中有数，眼前清清楚楚。”

The cook continued:

厄丁接着说:

"The knives of others become blunt after being used for a short time,

“别人的牛刀，用不了多久就会钝掉，

whereas I have used my knife for 19 years and slaughtered nearly 1,000 oxen, and it is still as sharp as anew one.

而我这把刀已经用了十九年，宰了上千头牛，但是还同新刀一样锋利。

However, when I come across a complicated structure, I would be cautious and conscientious and dare not be the least negligent.

不过，如果碰到错综复杂的结构，我还是兢兢业业，丝毫不敢怠慢。

I cut swiftly but lightly with great concentration and care.

动作很快，下刀却很轻，聚精会神，小L}翼翼。”

After hearing this, King Hui of Liang said:

梁惠王听后说:

"What you said is wonderful!From you I have learned the way of cultivating my mind and developing my character."

“你说得好极了!我从你这里悟到了修身养性的道理。”
