The changing lines of hexagram 35
| Line | Chinese | Legge |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | 晉如,摧如,貞吉。罔孚,裕无咎。 | The first line, divided, shows one wishing to advance, and (at the same time) kept back. Let him be firm and correct, and there will be good fortune. If trust be not reposed in him, let him maintain a large and generous mind, and there will be no error. |
| 3 | 眾允,悔亡。 | The third line, divided, shows its subject trusted by all (around him). All occasion for repentance will disappear. |
| 5 | 悔亡,矢得勿恤,往吉无不利。 | The fifth line, divided, shows how all occasion for repentance disappears (from its subject). (But) let him not concern himself about whether he shall fail or succeed. To advance will be fortunate, and in every way advantageous. |
