臧霸字宣高，泰山華人也。父戒，為縣獄掾，據法不聽太守欲所私殺。太守大怒，令收戒詣府，時送者百餘人。霸年十八，將客數十人徑於費西山中要奪之，送者莫敢動，因與父俱亡命東海，由是以勇壯聞。黃巾起，霸從陶謙擊破之，拜騎都尉。遂收兵於徐州，與孫觀、吳敦、尹禮等並聚眾，霸為帥，屯於開陽。太祖之討呂布也，霸等將兵助布。既禽布，霸自匿。太祖募索得霸，見而悅之，使霸招吳敦、尹禮、孫觀、觀兄康等，皆詣太祖。太祖以霸為琅邪相，敦利城、禮東莞、觀北海、康城陽太守，割青、徐二州，委之於霸。太祖之在兗州，以徐翕、毛暉為將。兗州亂，翕、暉皆叛。後兗州定，翕、暉亡命投霸。太祖語劉備，令語霸送二人首。霸謂備曰：「霸所以能自立者，以不為此也。霸受公生全之恩，不敢違命。然王霸之君可以義告，原將軍為之辭。」備以霸言白太祖，太祖嘆息，謂霸曰：「此古人之事而君能行之，孤之原也。」乃皆以翕、暉為郡守。
