51 Thunder

The Statement of the first hexagram

Thunder everywhere.
Thunder comes frighteningly.
People laugh and exclaim.
Thunder terrifies for one hundred miles,
but do not lose the ladle
of sacrificial wine.

The changing lines

The fifth line:
Thunder approaches and arrives harshly.
What is numerous is not lost.
There is business.
The sixth line:
Thunder menacing, menacing. Eyes wide
in fright. Going brings misfortune.
He does not shake, but his neighbor does.
No fault: a marriage has talk.

25 Innocence

The Statement of the second hexagram

Innocence: from the first, all must be

pervasive, gainful, and pure.

Those without such truth suffer calamity

and do not gain no matter where they go.
 
 

The Image of the first hexagram

Continuous thunder
on thunder.
The noble one examines
his morals
in fear and dread.
 
 

The Image of the second hexagram

Thunder moves
under heaven: all the world
is innocent. The ancient
kings paid close attention
to the time
in nourishing
the myriad things.
