Dhammapada Verses 309 & 310: But Little Delight
Dhammapada verse(s) in Pali:
Verse 309
cattāri ṭhānāni naro pamatto, āpajjati paradārūpasevī.
apuññalābhaṃ na nikāmaseyyaṃ, nindaṃ tatīyaṃ nirayaṃ catutthaṃ.
Verse 310
apuññalābho ca gatī ca pāpikā, bhītassa bhītāya ratī ca thokikā.
rājā ca daṇḍaṃ garukaṃ paṇeti, tasmā naro paradāraṃ na seve.
English translation of verse(s):
Verse 309
Four misfortunes befall the reckless man who consorts with another’s wife: acquisition of demerit, disturbed sleep, ill-repute, and (rebirth in) states of woe.
Verse 310
Such a man acquires demerit and an unhappy birth in the future. Brief is the pleasure of the frightened man and woman, and the king imposes heavy punishment. Hence, let no man consort with another’s wife.
(Translated by Acharya Buddharakkhita)
