“चतूहि, भिक्खवे, धम्मेहि समन्नागतो यथाभतं निक्खित्तो एवं निरये। कतमेहि चतूहि? पाणातिपाती होति, अदिन्नादायी होति, कामेसुमिच्छाचारी होति, मुसावादी होति—इमेहि खो, भिक्खवे, चतूहि धम्मेहि समन्नागतो यथाभतं निक्खित्तो एवं निरयेति।
“Catūhi, bhikkhave, dhammehi samannāgato yathābhataṁ nikkhitto evaṁ niraye. Katamehi catūhi? Pāṇātipātī hoti, adinnādāyī hoti, kāmesumicchācārī hoti, musāvādī hoti—imehi kho, bhikkhave, catūhi dhammehi samannāgato yathābhataṁ nikkhitto evaṁ nirayeti.
“Bhikkhus, someone with four qualities is cast down to hell. What four? They kill living creatures, steal, commit sexual misconduct, and lie. Someone with these four qualities is cast down to hell.
पाणातिपातो अदिन्नादानं, मुसावादो च वुच्चति; परदारगमनञ्चापि, नप्पसंसन्ति पण्डिता”ति।
Pāṇātipāto adinnādānaṁ, Musāvādo ca vuccati; Paradāragamanañcāpi, Nappasaṁsanti paṇḍitā”ti.
Killing, stealing, telling lies, and visiting others’ wives: astute people don’t praise these things.”
चतुत्थं।
Catutthaṁ.
