[原文]
4.1夫神道阐幽，天命微显，马龙出而大《易》兴，神龟见而《洪范》耀。故《系辞》称“河出图，洛出书，圣人则之”，斯之谓也。但世夐文隐，好生矫诞，真虽存矣，伪亦凭焉。
[今译]
神理深奥要阐明，天意微妙要显露，龙马背着图出来，重大的《易》卦就兴起了，神龟背着书出现，《洪范》中的九畴就显耀了。所以《易・系辞》上说:“黄河里出现图，洛水里出现书，圣人仿效它。”就指这些说法。但是年代久远，记载不清楚，容易产生虚伪的假托，真的虽然保存了，假的也靠它出来了。
4.1 Divine Reason gleams through darkness, the Mandate of Heaven emerges from obscurity. When the Dragon-Horse emerged with the "Diagram," the Book of Changes was begotten; when the Divine Tortoise surfaced with the "Pattern," the Book of Documents was written. The "Great Appendix" to the Book of Changes refers to these events when it states, "The Yellow River brought forth the Diagram and the River Luo presented the Pattern. The sages used them as models." However, because these texts appeared in the remote past and their language was obscure, absurd forgeries have come to be mixed with authentic texts.
