亨。王假有廟,利見大人,亨。利貞。用大牲吉,利有攸往。
In (the state denoted by) Žhui, the king will repair to his ancestral temple. It will be advantageous (also) to meet with the great man; and then there will be progress and success, though the advantage must come through firm correctness. The use of great victims will conduce to good fortune; and in whatever direction movement is made, it will be advantageous.

聚乃通也。 假,至也,王以聚至有廟也。 聚得大人,乃得通而利正也。 全乎聚道,「用大牲乃吉」也。聚道不全,而用大牲,神不福也。
正義曰:「萃」,卦名也,又萃聚也,聚集之義也。能招民聚物,使物歸而聚已,故名為「萃」也。亨者,通也。擁隔不通,無由得聚,聚之為事,其道必通,故云「萃亨」。 正義曰:假,至也。天下崩離,則民怨神怒,雖復享祀,與無廟同。王至大聚之時,孝德乃昭,始可謂之「有廟」矣,故曰「王假有廟」。 正義曰:聚而無主,不散則亂。惟有大德之人,能弘正道,乃得常通而利正,故曰「利見大人,亨,利貞」也。 正義曰:大人為王,聚道乃全,以此而用大牲,神明降福。故曰「用大牲,吉也」。 正義曰:人聚神祐,何往不利?故曰「利有攸往」也。
