朋友死，无所归，曰，于我殡。朋友之馈，虽车马，非祭肉不拜。
Modern Chinese Guide
朋友死了，没有亲属来料理归葬，孔子说：丧事由我来负责操办。对于朋友的馈赠，即使是车马这样贵重的东西，只要不是祭祀用过的肉，孔子接受时也不行拜礼。
James Legge Translation
1. When any of his friends died, if he had no relations who could be depended on for the necessary offices, he would say, "I will bury him." 2. When a friend sent him a present, though it might be a carriage and horses, he did not bow. 3. The only present for which he bowed was that of the flesh of sacrifice.
