32 Constancy

The Statement of the first hexagram

Constancy is to continue

without fault.

Gain through purity.

Gain by having a place to go.

The changing lines

The first line:
Dredging for constancy.

Pure misfortune. No place is gainful.
The second line:
Regrets vanish.
The third line:
Inconstant in conduct:

one may be disgraced.

Persist and there will be remorse.

51 Thunder

The Statement of the second hexagram

Thunder everywhere.
Thunder comes frighteningly.
People laugh and exclaim.
Thunder terrifies for one hundred miles,
but do not lose the ladle
of sacrificial wine.
 
 

The Image of the first hexagram

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

The Image of the second hexagram

Continuous thunder
on thunder.
The noble one examines
his morals
in fear and dread.
