Things, things; Escape, decline.
Translation:
The development process of anything will not always decline, so its opposite is greatness.
Explanation:
Decline will flourish, and "escape" will be "strong". Retirement is the beginning of progress, and a new situation of vigorous development will be ushered in after seclusion. The purpose of retiring is to recuperate, to recuperate, to be energetic and majestic, so "greatness" has emerged. This is a hint that the fortune has turned from weak to strong.
