43. 夬 Guài, Breakthrough
夬：揚于王庭，孚號，有厲，告自邑，不利即戎，利有攸往。
彖曰：夬，決也，剛決柔也。健而說，決而和，揚于王庭，柔乘五剛也。孚號有厲，其危乃光也。告自邑，不利即戎，所尚乃窮也。利有攸往，剛長乃終也。
象曰：澤上于天，夬；君子以施祿及下，居德則忌。
初九：壯于前趾，往不勝為吝。
象曰：不勝而往，咎也。
九二：惕號，莫夜有戎，勿恤。
象曰：有戎勿恤，得中道也。
九三：壯于頄，有凶。君子夬夬，獨行遇雨，若濡有慍，無咎。
象曰：君子夬夬，終無咎也。
九四：臀無膚，其行次且。牽羊悔亡，聞言不信。
象曰：其行次且，位不當也。聞言不信，聰不明也。
九五：莧陸夬夬，中行無咎。
象曰：中行無咎，中未光也。
上六：無號，終有凶。
象曰：無號之凶，終不可長也。
