103. 487 Ekamantaṃ ṭhito kho khemo devaputto bhagavato santike imā gāthāyo abhāsi—

488 “Caranti bālā dummedhā,

amitteneva attanā;

Karontā pāpakaṃ kammaṃ,

yaṃ hoti kaṭukapphalaṃ.

489 Na taṃ kammaṃ kataṃ sādhu,

yaṃ katvā anutappati;

Yassa assumukho rodaṃ,

vipākaṃ paṭisevati.

490 Tañca kammaṃ kataṃ sādhu,

yaṃ katvā nānutappati;

Yassa patīto sumano,

vipākaṃ paṭisevati.

491 Paṭikacceva taṃ kayirā,

yaṃ jaññā hitamattano;

Na sākaṭikacintāya,

mantā dhīro parakkame.

492 Yathā sākaṭiko maṭṭhaṃ,

samaṃ hitvā mahāpathaṃ;

Visamaṃ maggamāruyha,

akkhacchinnova jhāyati.

493 Evaṃ dhammā apakkamma,

adhammamanuvattiya;

Mando maccumukhaṃ patto,

akkhacchinnova jhāyatī”ti.
