Decrease. Have confidence.

Great fortune. No fault

if one can be upright.

Gain by having a place to go.

How should one act?

can be used in offering.

The changing lines

The fifth line:
Someone gains ten groups of turtles

no one can defy. Great fortune.
The sixth line:
No decrease, but gain there. No fault.

Pure fortune. Gain by having a place to go.

Get servants, but not a house.
