觀音靈簽第五十八簽：典故 Allegory
文王問卜。 周文王善卜卦。 紂王召見。 文王卜之不吉。 必有七年之厄。 嚴命其長子依舊法治岐。 切莫往外。 文王果被紂王軟禁於羑里。 後其子往救其父被殺。 皆因忘父命離鄉也。 文王於羑里從舊藝。 編修易經。 故文王也是易經作者之一也。 （另二位作者是同公與孔子）
King Wen consults the oracle. King Wen of Zhou was skilled in divination. When King Zhou of Shang summoned him, King Wen predicted ill fortune, foreseeing a disaster that would last for seven years. He strictly ordered his eldest son to continue ruling Qi according to their customs, and not to leave. As predicted, King Wen was indeed put under house arrest by King Zhou in Youli. Later, his son went to rescue his father but was killed, all because he forgot his father's command and left his hometown. While in Youli, King Wen continued his usual practice and compiled the Book of Changes (I Ching). Therefore, King Wen is considered one of the authors of the I Ching. (The other two authors are Duke of Zhou and Confucius).
