51 Thunder

The Statement of the first 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 changing lines

The first line:
Thunder brings fright and terror.
Afterward, laughter and talk: ha ha.
Fortune.
The second line:
Thunder comes harshly.
Countless treasures lost.
Climb up nine mounds. Do not pursue.
In seven days: recovery.
The third line:
Thunder: awake, awake!
Shaking without injury.
The fifth line:
Thunder approaches and arrives harshly.
What is numerous is not lost.
There is business.

28 Great Excess

The Statement of the second hexagram

The ridgepole sags.

Gain by having a place to go.

Continue.
 
 

The Image of the first hexagram

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

The Image of the second hexagram

The lake overwhelms
the trees: great excess.
The noble one stands alone
without fear,
and can withdraw
from the world
without sorrow.
