Hexagram 30 · 離 lí

Radiance · line 3

九三:日昃之離,不鼓缶而歌,則大耋之嗟,凶。

The third line, undivided, shows its subject in a position like that of the declining sun. Instead of playing on his instrument of earthenware, and singing to it, he utters the groans of an old man of eighty. There will be evil.

James Legge, 1882

Hexagram 30 Radiance · Judgement

離:利貞,亨。畜牝牛,吉。

Lî indicates that, (in regard to what it denotes), it will be advantageous to be firm and correct, and that thus there will be free course and success. Let (its subject) also nourish (a docility like that of) the cow, and there will be good fortune.

James Legge, 1882
