  1. 夫兵久而國利者未之有也
  2. 故不盡知用兵之害者則不能盡知用兵之利也
  3. 善用兵者役不再籍糧不三載
  4. 取用於國因糧於敵故軍食可足也

6. There is no instance of a country having benefitted from prolonged warfare.

7. It is only one who is thoroughly acquainted with the evils of war that can thoroughly understand the profitable way of carrying it on.

8. The skillful soldier does not raise a second levy, neither are his supply-wagons loaded more than twice.

9. Bring war material with you from home, but forage on the enemy. Thus the army will have food enough for its needs.
