Confucius’s famous sayings about overcoming setbacks, it’s best to bring a translator, uncle and sis, please help me, thank you

Confucius passed by Kuang on his way around the country. The locals mistakenly thought that Confucius was a foreign trade (a retainer of the Ji family had done harm to Kuang, and people hated him very much). They trapped him and could not escape for several days. , almost facing the danger of his life, Confucius said: "Heaven is going to lose the courtesy, and I can't give it to him; Heaven is not losing the courtesy, how can Kuang people do it?!" This means that Wen can be regarded as the culture of etiquette. , that is to say, if God wants the cultural line of Zhou Li to be extinct, I will not learn these cultures and spread them; but it seems that God does not intend to let this culture become extinct, so what can the Kuang people do to me? Woolen cloth? This is an example of a person who fully realizes his historical mission in the face of setbacks and has a will that is as unwavering as a rock.

Another classic is that when he was traveling through the realm of Chen and Cai, he was besieged and had no food for seven days. "The followers are sick and cannot thrive." When Zilu doubted the Master's way, Confucius had a famous saying: "A gentleman is poor, but a villain is poor!" There are many interpretations of this sentence. It probably means that a gentleman's good moral cultivation may not guarantee that they will not encounter setbacks, but they can be more determined in setbacks. But the villain is different. The villain has very poor moral cultivation. Once he encounters a dilemma, he will do anything. As Mencius said, "There is no extravagance in warding off evil and doing everything for one's own benefit."
