　　Seeing the poor man, Qian Ao held the food by left hand and the drink by right hand, and shouted at him,"Hi, come to eat !”

　　黔敖见了，就左手拿着吃的，右手捧着喝的，向他喊道：;喂，来吃吧!”

　　Hearing the word, the man glared his eyes and said, ;It is because I am not willing to eat the food handed out in contempt that I have been famished to such a degree. "

　　那人一听这话，立即瞪着眼睛，说道：;我就是因为不吃‘嗟来之食，才饿到这般地步的。"

　　Though Qian Ao made an apology to him for that, the man still resolutely refused to eat the food and thus he died of hunger in the end.

　　尽管黔敖向他道歉，那人仍然坚决不吃，终于饿死了。
