52 Stilling

The Statement of the first hexagram

One stills one's back
and does not move one's body.
There is movement in one's courtyard,
but one does not see one's people.
No fault.

The changing lines

The first line:
Stilling one's feet. No fault.
Gain through everlasting virtue.
The fourth line:
Stilling his trunk.
No fault.
The sixth line:
Deep and honest stillness.
Fortunate.

55 Plentiful

The Statement of the second hexagram

Plentiful. Progress.

The great king arrives. Do not grieve.

All is right as the midday sun.
 
 

The Image of the first hexagram

Doubled mountains:
stillness.
The noble one
does not consider matters
beyond his position.
 
 

The Image of the second hexagram

Thunder and lightning
come fully: plentiful.
The wise one decides
lawsuits and applies
punishments.
