买椟还珠这个寓言故事，翻译成现代汉语大致是这样的：
从前，有个人在市场上买了一个装珍珠的盒子。这个盒子非常精美，但里面的珍珠却非常普通。这个人却不知道，只看到了盒子，以为里面的珍珠也是一样珍贵。于是，他花了大价钱买下了盒子，然后把里面的珍珠倒出来还给了卖主。
这个故事用来比喻那些只看重外表而忽略了内在价值的人，或者是不识货、颠倒黑白的行为。翻译成英文，可以是：
Once upon a time, there was a man who bought a box containing pearls at the market. The box was beautifully crafted, but the pearls inside were quite ordinary. The man, however, saw only the box and thought the pearls within were as precious. So, he paid a high price for the box and then returned the pearls to the seller.
The story is used to illustrate the behavior of those who value appearance over substance or those who are unable to discern the true value, turning the tables on what is right and wrong.

买椟还珠这个寓言故事，翻译成现代汉语大概是这样的：
有一天，一个楚国人到郑国去卖珠宝。他为了吸引顾客，特意用精美的盒子装了他的珠宝。结果，有个郑国人看中了那个盒子，觉得盒子比珠宝还漂亮，就买下了盒子，却把珠宝还给了那个楚国人。
这个故事讽刺了一些人只注重外表而不重视实质，就像那个郑国人只喜欢盒子，却不懂得珠宝的价值一样。用英文来翻译，可以是：
Once, a man from Chu went to Zheng to sell his jewels. To attract customers, he used an exquisite box to package his jewels. Surprisingly, a man from Zheng was attracted by the box, thinking it was more beautiful than the jewels inside. He bought the box, but returned the jewels to the man from Chu.
This fable satirizes those who value appearance over substance, just like the man from Zheng who preferred the box to the jewels.
