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 second line:
With jerking jaws, you disobey

the right ways. Find nourishment

in the nearby hills

instead of journeying far away.
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 fourth line:
Moving jaws are fortunate.

Like a glaring tiger, passion runs full,

but there is no fault.
The sixth line:
Through nourishment

in severity comes fortune.

Advance across the great river.

32 Constancy

The Statement of the second hexagram

Constancy is to continue

without fault.

Gain through purity.

Gain by having a place to go.
 
 

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

Thunder and wind:
constancy.
The noble one stands
without changing direction.
