15 Humility

The Statement of the first hexagram

Humility imbues.

The noble one gets completion.

The changing lines

The sixth line:
Singing humility.

Gain by moving armies.

Conquer city and state.

52 Stilling

The Statement of the second 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 Image of the first hexagram

Mountains in the middle
of the earth: humility.
The wise person
takes from the ample
to add to the meager,
weighing and balancing
fairly.
 
 

The Image of the second hexagram

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