lipu Pona — kasi nanpa 48
| 为学日益 | In studying, each day something is gained. | |
| 为道日损 | In following the Way, each day something is lost. | |
| 损之又损 | Lost and again lost. | |
| 以至于无为 | Until there is nothing left to do. | |
| 无为而无不为 | Not-doing, nothing is left undone. | |
| 取天下常以无事 | You can possess the world by never manipulating it. | |
| 及其有事 | No matter how much you manipulate | |
| 不足以取天下 | You can never possess the world. |
