“Mendicants, there are these five drawbacks of unimpressive conduct.
Katame pañca?
What five?
Attāpi attānaṁ upavadati,
You blame yourself.
anuvicca viññū garahanti,
After examination, sensible people criticize you.
pāpako kittisaddo abbhuggacchati,
You get a bad reputation.
sammūḷho kālaṁ karoti,
You feel lost when you die.
kāyassa bhedā paraṁ maraṇā apāyaṁ duggatiṁ vinipātaṁ nirayaṁ upapajjati.
And when your body breaks up, after death, you’re reborn in a place of loss, a bad place, the underworld, hell.
Ime kho, bhikkhave, pañca ādīnavā apāsādike.
These are the five drawbacks of unimpressive conduct.
Pañcime, bhikkhave, ānisaṁsā pāsādike.
There are these five benefits of impressive conduct.
Katame pañca?

Attāpi attānaṁ na upavadati,
You don’t blame yourself.
anuvicca viññū pasaṁsanti,
After examination, sensible people praise you.
kalyāṇo kittisaddo abbhuggacchati,
You get a good reputation.
asammūḷho kālaṁ karoti,
You don’t feel lost when you die.
kāyassa bhedā paraṁ maraṇā sugatiṁ saggaṁ lokaṁ upapajjati.
And when the body breaks up, after death, you’re reborn in a good place, a heavenly realm.
Ime kho, bhikkhave, pañca ānisaṁsā pāsādike”ti.
These are the five benefits of impressive conduct.”
Sattamaṁ.
