33 Withdrawal

The Statement of the first hexagram

Withdrawal. Continue.
Small gains in persisting.

The changing lines

The first line:
Withdrawing at the tail of evil.
No use to have a place to go.
The second line:
Hold using yellow ox hide,
but do not declare victory.
The fourth line:
A fitting withdrawal.
For the wise one, fortune.
For the inferior one, evil.
The fifth line:
An excellent withdrawal.
Pure fortune.

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

A mountain under heaven:
withdrawal.
The noble one keeps
distant from vile people,
not with hatred,
but with dignity.
 
 

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.
