Hexagram 15, Qiān (Modesty): Line 5
谦卦六五 · 地山谦 · 中文版
六五：不富，以其邻，利用侵伐，无不利。
The line (Legge)
The fifth SIX, divided, shows one who, without being rich, is able to employ his neighbours. He may advantageously use the force of arms. All his movements will be advantageous.
Small Image commentary
'He may advantageously use the force of arms:' - correcting, that is, those who do not submit.
象曰：利用侵伐，征不服也。
In plain words
Not relying on wealth, it wins its neighbours; it is favourable to attack those who will not submit, and nothing is unfavourable. The fifth line is yielding in the place of honour and wins people through modesty; against the stubbornly defiant, force may still be used. The Small Image says this is to punish those who do not submit.
Applying it to your situation
If you have always given way to others, this line suggests that modesty is not weakness, and sometimes you must stand on principle. Where should you stop giving way?
Position
A broken (yin) line in the fifth place, which is a yang (odd) place, so it is not in its proper place. It holds the centre of the upper trigram. Its partner is line 2; both are yin, so they do not respond.
If this line moves
With this line moving alone, Qiān changes into Hexagram 39 Jiǎn (Obstruction). The Jiaoshi Yilin verse for this change (Chinese): 焦氏易林·谦之蹇.
The hexagram
Hexagram 15 Qiān (Modesty). The Judgment: Qian indicates progress and success. The superior man, (being humble as it implies), will have a (good) issue (to his undertakings).
