Hexagram 6 · 訟 sòng
Dispute · line 4
九四:不克訟,復即命,渝,安貞,吉。
The fourth line, undivided, shows its subject unequal to the contention. He returns to (the study of Heaven's) ordinances, changes (his wish to contend), and rests in being firm and correct. There will be good fortune.
James Legge, 1882
Hexagram 6 Dispute · Judgement
訟:有孚,窒惕,中吉,終凶。利見大人,不利涉大川。
Sung intimates how, though there is sincerity in one's contention, he will yet meet with opposition and obstruction; but if he cherish an apprehensive caution, there will be good fortune, while, if he must prosecute the contention to the (bitter) end, there will be evil. It will be advantageous to see the great man; it will not be advantageous to cross the great stream.
James Legge, 1882
