4 Youth

The Statement of the first hexagram

A youth must be steadfast.

I do not seek the naive youth.

The naive youth seeks me.

At the first divination, I explain,

but after three times, it is irritating.

Annoyed, I explain no further.

Nevertheless, a gainful omen.

The changing lines

The first line:
While penalties are useful to illuminate

the naive youth, take off the fetters-

to go too far leads to sorrow.
The second line:
To have the joy of holding your own child,

take a wife. It will lead to fortune:

your children will lead the family.
The third line:
It is useless to marry a woman

who loses herself when she sees

a golden man.

22 Adornment

The Statement of the second hexagram

Adornment. Continue.
Slight gain in having a place to go.
 
 

The Image of the first hexagram

A spring gushes
below a mountain:
the naive youth.
The noble one nourishes virtue
with determination.
 
 

The Image of the second hexagram

Fire at the foot
of a mountain: adornment.
The noble one thereby
governs with clarity, and
does not dare
to decide lawsuits lightly.
