The Six Moving Lines
- Six at the beginningRepetition of the abyss; one falls into a pit; misfortune.初六:习坎,入于坎窞,凶。
- Nine in the second placeThe abyss is dangerous; one should strive to attain small things only.九二:坎有险,求小得。
- Six in the third placeBefore and behind one are precipices; water is a precipice; do not enter a pit; use only the small.六三:来之坎坎,险且枕,入于坎窞,勿用。
- Six in the fourth placeA jug of wine, a bowl of rice with earthen vessels; offer them through the window; in the end no blame.六四:樽酒簋贰,用缶,纳约自牖,终无咎。
- Nine in the fifth placeSimple, sincere; nothing furthers but with discipline.九五:坎不盈,祗既平,无咎。
- Six at the topBound with cords and ropes, shut in between thorn-hedged prison walls; for three years one does not find the way; misfortune.上六:系用徽纆,寘于丛棘,三岁不得,凶。
