27 Nourishing

The Statement of the first hexagram

Nourishing. Pure fortune.

Watch the jaws

and what one seeks to fill one's mouth.

The changing lines

The first line:
You put aside your divine turtle

And watch my moving jaws: misfortune.
The third line:
Jaws shake in opposition. Persistence

will bring misfortune. For ten years,

all will be useless and no place

will bring gain.
The sixth line:
Through nourishment

in severity comes fortune.

Advance across the great river.

15 Humility

The Statement of the second hexagram

Humility imbues.

The noble one gets completion.
 
 

The Image of the first hexagram

Thunder below the mountain: nourishing.
The noble one is
careful in speech
and temperate
while eating and drinking.
 
 

The Image of the second hexagram

Mountains in the middle
of the earth: humility.
The wise person
takes from the ample
to add to the meager,
weighing and balancing
fairly.
