The Well · line 3
九三:井渫不食,為我心惻,可用汲,王明,並受其福。
The third line, undivided, shows a well, which has been cleared out, but is not used. Our hearts are sorry for this, for the water might be drawn out and used. If the king were (only) intelligent, both he and we might receive the benefit of it.
James Legge, 1882
Hexagram 48 The Well · Judgement
井:改邑不改井,无喪无得,往來井井。汔至,亦未繘井,羸其瓶,凶。
(Looking at) Tsing, (we think of) how (the site of) a town may be changed, while (the fashion of) its wells undergoes no change. (The water of a well) never disappears and never receives (any great) increase, and those who come and those who go can draw and enjoy the benefit. If (the drawing) have nearly been accomplished, but, before the rope has quite reached the water, the bucket is broken, this is evil.
James Legge, 1882
