13 Kindred

The Statement of the first hexagram

The kindred in the wilderness.
Continue.
Advance across the great river.
Gain by a wise one's purity.

The changing lines

The second line:
The kindred in the ancestral temple.
Remorse.
The fourth line:
Mounting their ramparts.
Unable to conquer.
Fortune.
The fifth line:
The kindred first wail and yet later laugh:
great armies are able to meet.

26 Great Restraint

The Statement of the second hexagram

Gain by being upright.
Not eating at home brings fortune.
Advance across the great river.
 
 

The Image of the first hexagram

Fire rises into heaven:
kindred. The noble one
groups and sorts
all that must be done.
 
 

The Image of the second hexagram

Heaven in the center of a
mountain: great restraint.
The noble one
frequently studies
the words and prophesies
of the past, and thereby
nourishes virtue.
