Chapter 64

Kaba Iengiew ha Kaba Bam Dang Po, Kaba Mlah ha Kaba Bam Dang Po

微始慎终如始自然

Original

其安易持，其未兆易谋，其脆易泮，其微易散。为之于未有，治之于未乱。
合抱之木，生于毫末；九层之台，起于累土；千里之行，始于足下。
为者败之，执者失之。是以圣人无为故无败，无执故无失。
民之从事，常于几成而败之。慎终如始，则无败事。
是以圣人欲不欲，不贵难得之货；学不学，复众人之所过。以辅万物之自然而不敢为。

Ki Kapitur Chibynta

Wang Bi (226–249 CE)

当以慎终除微，慎微除乱。为之于未有，治之于未乱。合抱之木，生于毫末；九层之台，起于累土；千里之行，始于足下。

James Legge (1891)

That which is at rest is easily kept hold of; before a thing has given indications of its presence, it is easy to take measures against it. The tree which fills the arms grew from the tiniest sprout; the tower of nine storeys rose from a (small) heap of earth; the journey of a thousand li commenced with a single step.
