15 Humility

The Statement of the first hexagram

Humility imbues.

The noble one gets completion.

The changing lines

The second line:
Singing humility:

pure fortune.
The fifth line:
Not enriched by his neighbors.

Gain by invading and smiting.

Nothing but gain.

48 Well

The Statement of the second hexagram

Well. A city may change,

but the well does not.

It does not lose, it does not gain.

In spite of all who come and go from a well,

it remains a well.

But if the rope cannot reach,

or if the well's vase is upended:_

misfortune.
 
 

The Image of the first 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.
 
 

The Image of the second hexagram

Wood above water: well.
The noble one encourages
the people and lends them
assistance.
