13.87

矜伐 (Boastful and vaunting: the first [jin has] the fanqie 居疑; Zheng's commentary to the Liji says: 'Jin means making oneself appear venerable and great.' The Posthumous Titles Rules say: 'To deem oneself worthy is called jin.' The Shuowen jiezi states that it is formed with the spear radical 矛 and jin 今 as phonetic. In the sūtra text, writing it with ling 令 as 矝 is an error).
