77.许渊冲英译《道德经》第75章

民之饥，以其上食税之多，是以饥。
民之难治，以其上之有为，是以难治。
民之轻死，以其上求生之厚，是以轻死。
夫唯无以生为者，是贤于贵生。

The people's starvation
results from the ruler' overtaxation,
so the people starve.
The people are difficult to rule,
for the ruler give exacting orders,
so the people are hard to rule.
The people make light of their death,
for the rulers overvalue their own life,
so the people undervalue their death.
Those who have no use for life
are better than those who value their life.
