是以，Therefore (those sages),
明於天之道， fully understanding the way of Heaven,
而察於民之故， and having clearly ascertained the experience of the people,
是興神物以前民用。instituted (the employment of) these spirit-like things, as a provision for the use of the people.
聖人以此齊戒， The sages went about the employment of them (moreover) by purifying their hearts and with reverent caution,
以神明其德夫！ thereby giving (more) spirituality and intelligence to their virtue.
是故， Thus,
闔戶謂之坤； a door shut may be pronounced (analogous to) Kun (or the inactive condition),
闢戶謂之乾； and the opening of the door (analogous to) Qian (or the active condition).
一闔一闢謂之變； The opening succeeding the being shut may be pronounced (analogous to what we call) a change;
往來不窮謂之通； and the passing from one of these states to the other may be called the constant course (of things).
見乃謂之象； The (first) appearance of anything (as a bud) is what we call a semblance;
形乃謂之器；when it has received its complete form, we call it a definite thing.
制而用之，(The divining-plant having been produced, the sages) set it apart and laid down the method of its employment,
謂之法； - what we call the laws (of divination).
利用出入， The advantage arising from it in external and internal matters,
民咸用之， so that the people all use it,
謂之神。 stamps it with a character which we call spirit-like.
