34 Great Vigor

The Statement of the first hexagram

Great vigor, gainful purity.

The changing lines

The second line:
Persist.

Fortune.
The third line:
The inferior exert strength, the superior

exert not. Persist in harsh times.

A ram butts a hedge, entangling his horns.
The fourth line:
Pure fortune. Regrets vanish.

The hedge breaks: entanglement is gone.

Strong as a great car's axle blocks.

24 Returning

The Statement of the second hexagram

Returning. Continue.
In coming and going,
there is neither sickness nor distress.
Companions come without fault.
Returning is its Tao.
In seven days, returning comes.
Gain by having a place to go.
 
 

The Image of the first hexagram

Thunder in heaven above:
great vigor. The noble one
is never without reverence
and does not fail
in conduct.
 
 

The Image of the second hexagram

Thunder in the center of
the earth: returning.
The ancient kings
closed the borders
during the solstices.
Traveling merchants
did not journey. Sovereigns
did not tour the provinces.
