20 Beholding

The Statement of the first hexagram

Behold! The hands have been washed,

but the offering has not yet been made.

Be sincere and dignified in appearance.

The changing lines

The first line:
Childish beholding is not wrong

for a common person, but it is wrong

for a superior person.
The second line:
Spying and peeping:

far better to have a woman's purity.
The fourth line:
Beholding our nation's glory:

make good use

of an audience with the king.

10 Walking

The Statement of the second hexagram

Walking on a tiger's tail:

it does not bite.

Continue.
 
 

The Image of the first hexagram

The wind moving above
the earth: beholding.
The ancient kings
inspected the provinces
and territories to establish
the right teachings.
 
 

The Image of the second hexagram

Heaven above, lake below:
walking. The noble one
distinguishes high and low
to fix the people's purpose.
