太甲

云层散开了，太甲又照耀着大地。

The clouds parted , and the sun shone down .

放太甲于桐，民大悦。

The people were much pleased .

太甲在桐宫住了3年，终于悔过自新，伊尹又把政权交给他。

Living in the Tonggong Palace for three years , Tai Jia eventually regretted and went straight . Then , Yi Yin restored him .

太甲改恶从善，勤政修德，人民生活安定，各属国都很钦佩。

TaiJia became benevolent and diligent , so the people began to live a stable life , and all vassal states admired him very much .

太甲在位3年期间，不遵守商汤立下的法令，伊尹多次劝告无效，于是，伊尹把太甲关进桐宫，希望他反省，自己亲自执政。

King Tai Jia did not obey the decree made by Tang in his three-year reign , and Yi Yin persuaded him for many times , but failed . Consequently , Yi Yin shut him in Tonggong Palace , hoping him to have a self-reflection , and governed the state himself .
