Announced from the town, not favorable to engage in war, favorable to go forward Line1:Strength in the front toes, going forward without victory is blame Line 2:Alarmed cry, at night there is war, do not worry Line 3:Strength in the jaw, there is danger. The superior man is decisive, going alone, encountering rain as if wet. There is resentment but no blame Line 4:The buttocks are without skin, his steps are hesitant, leading a sheep, regret disappears, hearing words but not believing Line 5:The plantain is decisive, in the middle way there is no blame Line 6:No cry, in the end there is danger 《The Judgment》:Kua means to decide, the strong decides the soft. Strong and pleasing, decisive and harmonious. Proclaimed in the royal court, the soft rides above the five strong; with trust, there is danger, its peril is bright; announced from the town, not favorable to engage in war, what is valued is exhausted; favorable to go forward, the strong grows and ends 《The Image》:A lake above the sky, Kua. The superior man, by this, bestows blessings on those below, but is cautious in virtue 《The Sequence of the Hexagrams》:If one increases and does not stop, there must be a decision, hence it is followed by Kua; Kua means to decide 《The Mixed Hexagrams》:Kua, to decide, the strong decides the soft. The way of the superior man grows, the way of the petty man is worried
