Judgment
Moving Lines
3
Strong at the chin, there is disaster. The exemplary person is resolutely breaking; walking alone, encountering rain—as if soaked, there is resentment, no blame.
4
Buttocks without skin, the walking is halting and awkward. Leading a sheep, regret disappears; hearing words, not believing.

The walking is halting and awkward: the position is not fitting. Hearing words and not believing: the discernment is not bright.
Ancient Comments on the Judgment
Cloudburst is deciding; the firm decides the yielding. Vigorous and joyful, deciding and harmonizing; proclaiming in the royal court, the yielding rides five firm lines. Trustworthy calling has danger; its precariousness then becomes manifest. Informing from the settlement, not advantageous to resort to arms; that which is esteemed then reaches an impasse. Advantageous to have a purposeful direction; the firm grows, and so it ends.
