When Tao prevails in the world, galloping horses are turned back to fertilize (the fields with the dung). When Tao does not prevail in the world, war horses thrive in the suburbs.
There is no calamity greater than lavish desires. There is no greater guilt than discontentment. And there is no greater disaster than greed.
He who is contented with contentment is always contented.

Translation 2

Dünyada hər şey yolundadırsa
Yəhərlənməmiş atlar çəmənləri gübrələyir
Dünya yolunu itirəndə
Cəng arabalarına qoşulmuş atlar civarda çapır
Ən yaman şər – şöhrətpərəstlikdir
Ən acınacaqlı safalət - naşükürlükdür
Ən acı cinayət – tamahkarlıqdır
Həqiqətən,
Kim qədərini bilər və kifayətlənər
O adama həmişə yetərincə yetər
