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 fifth line:
An innocent and naive youth:

fortunate.

61 Confidence Within

The Statement of the second hexagram

Confidence within:

Pigs. Fish. Fortune.

Advance across the great river.

Gainful purity.
 
 

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

Wind above the lake:
inner truth.
The noble one
discusses the law
and grants reprieve
from execution.
