7 Armies

The Statement of the first hexagram

Armies must be steadfast.
With a great leader
they will find fortune.
They must remain without fault.

The changing lines

The sixth line:
The great prince takes command.
He founds a country
and supports the clans.
He does not employ petty people.

4 Youth

The Statement of the second 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 Image of the first hexagram

The earth's center
is filled with water.
The noble one supports
the people and cares for
everyone.
 
 

The Image of the second hexagram

A spring gushes
below a mountain:
the naive youth.
The noble one nourishes virtue
with determination.
