九三 日昃之离，不鼓缶而歌，则大耋之嗟，凶。
九四 突如其来如，焚如，死如，弃如。

上九 王用出征，有嘉折首，获匪其丑，无咎。

Holding firm brings success here — like patiently raising a cow, steady and unhurried care leads to good fortune.
Initial Nine: Footsteps scattered in confusion at the start -- stay attentive and there's no fault in it.
Six in the second: A warm, golden brightness settled at the center -- fortune at its very best.
Nine in the third: As the sun tips toward the horizon, some drum on pots and sing while others cry out in dread of growing old -- misfortune follows the second response.
Nine in the fourth: It arrives without warning -- flares brightly, burns out fast, and is discarded just as quickly.
Six in the fifth: Weeping openly, sighing under real worry -- and out of that honesty, good fortune comes.
Nine at the top: Commissioned by the king to lead the campaign, the right approach is to deal with the ringleaders decisively while sparing the rank and file -- no fault in that precision.
