45 Collecting

The Statement of the first hexagram

The king draws near to the temple:
gain by seeing a great person.
Make an offering with purity,
using great sacrificial beasts. Fortune.
Gain by having a place to go.

The changing lines

The first line:
A trust that cannot reach conclusion:
there is confusion, there is collecting amid commands.
One grasps for smiling results-no help.
Depart without fault.
The fourth line:
Great fortune, no fault.
The fifth line:
Collecting brings position. No fault
that there is no trust.
Great everlasting constancy dispels regret.
The sixth line:
Exclamations, tears, and sniveling.
No fault.

27 Nourishing

The Statement of the second hexagram

Nourishing. Pure fortune.

Watch the jaws

and what one seeks to fill one's mouth.
 
 

The Image of the first hexagram

Lake above the earth.
Collecting. The noble one
collects the tools of war
to guard against
unforeseen danger.
 
 

The Image of the second hexagram

Thunder below the mountain: nourishing.
The noble one is
careful in speech
and temperate
while eating and drinking.
