6. Conflict · 訟 九二
Line 2 of hexagram 6
In practice
Withdrawing in time, even if it looks cowardly, is the best move right now.
The poetry
Unable to win the lawsuit. Turning back, slipping away; the people of the town, three hundred households, come to no harm.
九二:不克訟,歸而逋,其邑人三百戶无眚。
象曰:不克訟,歸逋竄也。自下訟上,患至掇也。
