"A great nation flows down To be the world's pool, The female under heaven In stillness The female constantly overcomes the male, In stillness Takes the low place. Therefore a great nation Lowers itself And wins over a small one. A small nation Keeps itself low And wins over a great one. Sometimes becoming low wins, Sometimes staying low wins. A great nation desires nothing more Than to unite and protect people. A small nation desires nothing more Than to enter the service of people. When both get what they wish The great one should be low."
