Century to a kind of destruction:?
and received a response of:
43 Decisiveness
The Statement of the first hexagram
Decisiveness. Proclaim in the royal court.
Trust in the commands. Be stern.
There will be severity.
Announce to your own city.
There is no gain in going to war.
Gain by having a place to go.
The changing lines
The third line:
Strong in the cheekbones: misfortune.
The noble one is resolute, but walks alone-
soaked by rain, angry,
with no one to blame.
The sixth line:
No signals:
the end will be misfortune.
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
Lake rising to heaven:
decisiveness. The noble one
bestows wealth
to those below
and shuns dwelling
on his own virtues.
The Image of the second hexagram
Heaven above, lake below:
walking. The noble one
distinguishes high and low
to fix the people's purpose.
