If you can trust yourself when all men doubt you,

but make allowance for their doubting too;

if you can wait and not be tired by waiting,

or, being lied about, don't deal in lies,

or, being hated, don't give way to hating,

and yet don't look too good, nor talk too wise.

如果所有的人都怀疑你，

但你还能相信自己，并体谅别人的怀疑；

如果你懂得等待并且不因为等待而沮丧，

或者被别人欺骗也不去欺骗别人，

或者被别人怨恨也不去憎恨别人，

不要太过乐观，不要自以为是。
