30.有孚，比之無咎，有孚盈缶，終來有它吉。——出自《比·初六爻》
今譯：人開始時懷著謙虛和誠意去親近他人，肯定不會有錯。倘若滿懷誠意，好比盛滿瓦罐一般，那麼還會有意料不到的吉利。
衍言：人際相處，全憑一個誠字。人心如秤，奸詐權術，隻能蒙騙一時。
《周易》小詞典：《比》，卦名。比，有親近相依的意思，反映了人類互相團結的現象。
To one who seeks by his sincerity to win the attachment of his object, there will be no error. Let the breast be full of sincerity as an earthenware vessel is of its contents, and it will in the end bring other advantages.——- from The First Line, Divided, Bi
Modern interpretation: It is, of course, all right to get close to others with humility and sincerity at first. But if you are too full of sincerity as a jar completely filled, there will be unexpected fortune.
Moral: Human communication takes sincerity as the basis. Craft and political trickery can deceive people only for a while.
Glossary: Bi denotes close relationship and mutual dependence. This hexagram represents the idea of union of humankind.
