【原文】好讥而不乱，亟变而不变，时至则为，过则去。王数不可豫致。《国准》

【汉解】重视调查而做到有条不紊，积极改革而不留恋过去，条件成熟就应当实行，条件已变就应放弃。成王业的具体政策是不能事前安排好的。

【英译】They must be good at investigating the situation and never letting it get out of hand. They must be quick to change without being fickle. When the proper time arrive, they must act; when it is past, they must let go. The policies suitable for a specific reign can never be foreseen in advance.
