Filial peity is the root of morality. Those who love parents dare not hate others; those who respect parents dare not snub others. Though high without danger enjoys being high long; filled up without overflow enjoys richness long. Words over the world without faults; deeds over the world without hatred. Be prudent and frugal to take care of parents. Wise kings and leaders manage with filial peity. The way to love parents are: to respect in residence; to please in living. To serve parents mean in higher position without arrogance; in lower position without problem-causing; in undesirable position without conflicts.
