The word "yin" among all the evils of sexual immorality here refers to too much and too much, and does not mean lasciviousness. The word "yin" in "Wealth and honor cannot be licentious" also means too much.

Excerpts from the original text:

Good will be rewarded with good, evil will be punished with evil Report.

It’s not that I won’t report it, the time has not yet come.

All kinds of evil are the first, and all kinds of good deeds and filial piety are the first.

People who have no faith do not know what is possible.

One person’s truth is false, but a thousand people’s truth is true.

Translation:

If you do good things with good intentions, you will get good rewards; if you do evil things with bad intentions, you will get bad retributions. It’s not that there is no retribution, but that the time has not yet come. Among all kinds of sins, indulgence is the first, and among all kinds of behaviors, filial piety is the first. I really don’t know how a person can do it if he is not trustworthy. That is to say, it is impossible for people to be dishonest. If something false told by one person is spread by many people, it will become like the truth.
