Dadato puññaṃ pavaḍḍhati;

Saṃyamato veraṃ na cīyati;

Kusalo ca jahāti pāpakaṃ,

Rāgadosamohakkhayā sanibbuto.

Listen

Who gives, one's virtues shall increase;

Who is self-curbed, no hatred bears;

Who so is skilled in virtue, evil shuns,

And by the rooting out of lust and hate

And all delusion, comes to be at peace.

Dīgha Nikāya 2.197
