The line, with Legge
Line statement 爻辭
貞吉，悔亡，震用伐鬼方，三年有賞于大國。
The fourth line, undivided, shows its subject by firm correctness obtaining good fortune, so that all occasion for repentance disappears. Let him stir himself up, as if he were invading the Demon region, where for three years rewards will come to him (and his troops) from the great kingdom. (Legge, 1882)
