26 Great Restraint
The Statement of the first hexagram
Gain by being upright.
Not eating at home brings fortune.
Advance across the great river.
The changing lines
The fourth line:
A young bull's headboard.
Great fortune.
The fifth line:
A gelded hog's teeth.
Favorable.
The sixth line:
Where is heaven's thoroughfare?
Go through it.
43 Decisiveness
The Statement of the second 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 Image of the first hexagram
Heaven in the center of a
mountain: great restraint.
The noble one
frequently studies
the words and prophesies
of the past, and thereby
nourishes virtue.
The Image of the second hexagram
Lake rising to heaven:
decisiveness. The noble one
bestows wealth
to those below
and shuns dwelling
on his own virtues.
