Ligne par ligne
Trait 1：习坎，入于坎窞，凶。 Facing double danger — entering the pit; peril. One danger piles upon another.
Trait 2：坎有险，求小得。 There is danger in the pit — seeking yields only small gains. Settle for less for now.
Trait 3：来之坎坎，险且枕，入于坎窞，勿用。 Approaching the pit's edge — danger upon danger; entering the pit, do not act. When advance and retreat are both risky, stay still.
Trait 4：樽酒簋贰，用缶，纳约自牖，终无咎。 A cup of wine, two bowls of rice, in earthen vessels, passed through the window — ultimately no harm. Simple sincerity resolves crisis.
Trait 5：坎不盈，祗既平，无咎。 The pit is not yet full — just a small mound; no harm. Danger has not peaked; it can be managed.
Trait 6：系用徽纆，寘于丛棘，三岁不得，凶。 Bound with ropes, imprisoned in thorns — three years without escape; danger. Deeply trapped, hard to break free.
