DHAMMAPADA XXIV, 25

Syair 358

Rumput liar merusak ladang; kebodohan merusak manusia. Karena itu, dana yang dipersembahkan kepada mereka yang telah bebas dari kebodohan akan menghasilkan pahala besar.

Suket-suket iku mahanani bebaya tumrap tegal lan sawah; pepetenging batin iku mahanani bencono tumrap manungsa. Karana iku, misungsung marang para kang wus kalis ing eppetenging batin bakal nuwuhake kanugrahan gedhe.

The fields are damaged by weeds, mankind is damaged by stupidity; therefore, a gift bestowed on those who are free from stupidity brings great reward.
