孟懿子问孝，子曰，无违。樊迟御，子吿之曰，孟孙问孝于我，我对曰，无违。樊迟曰，何谓也，子曰，生事之以礼，死葬之以礼，祭之以礼。
白话导读
孟懿子问什么是孝。孔子说：不要违背礼。后来樊迟为孔子驾车，孔子告诉他说：孟孙问我孝，我回答说不要违背礼。樊迟问这是什么意思。孔子说：父母活着时，要按礼侍奉；父母去世后，要按礼安葬，按礼祭祀。

Soon after, as Fan Ch'ih was driving him, the Master told him, saying, "Mang-sun asked me what filial piety was, and I answered him,—'not being disobedient.'" 3. Fan Ch'ih said, "What did you mean?" The Master replied, "That parents, when alive, be served according to propriety; that, when dead, they should be buried according to propriety; and that they should be sacrificed to according to propriety."
