Selected Verses from the Dhammapada
Translated by P. Lal...Chapter: Impurity...page 123
Who takes life, tells a lie,
covets other's wealth, commits adultery,
and surrenders himself to strong liquors,
even in this world, he digs his own grave.
Listen, O man!
indiscipline begets evil.
Avarice and ill deed bring long misery.
