The Statement of the first hexagram

Following
what is great, smooth,
gainful, and pure.
No fault.

The changing lines

The first line:
The standards of excellence are altered.
Pure fortune. Go out of the gate
to meet others and there will be merit.
The fourth line:
Follow and there will be capture-but this is a sign
of misfortune. Put your confidence in the Way
and you will understand.
Then, how can there be fault?
The fifth line:
Confidence in excellence.
Fortune.

2 Earth

The Statement of the second hexagram

Earth: maker, everywhere.
Gain from a mare's purity.
The noble one wanting to go far
is first confused, but later finds guidance.
Gain friends in the west and south,
Lose friends in the east and north.
Peace: this is a sign of fortune.
 
 

The Image of the first hexagram

Thunder over the middle
of the lake: following.
The noble one at sunset
goes into a house to rest.
 
 

The Image of the second hexagram

Ground as the power
of earth:
the noble one generously
supports all things.
