Intelligence (knowledge) is to be found in one who is well-behaved and modest ; disgrace persues the steps of the irascible (enraged) and ill-behaved ; poverty dogs the step of the broken-hearted and the goddess of wealth follows one who is truthful ( lit : resting on truth ).
कोहाहिभूआ न सुहं लहंति, माणसिणो सोय-परा हवंति। मायाविणो हुंति परस्स पेस्सा, लुद्धा महिच्छा नरयं उविति॥१६॥ क्रोधाभिभूता न सुखं लभन्ते, मानिनः शोकपरा भवन्ति । मायाविनो भवन्ति परस्य प्रेष्या लुब्धा महेच्छा नरकमुपयन्ति ।
Those over.powered with anger, never attain to bappivess, the proud have to suffer from sorrow, the hypocrites are destined to the service of others, while the avaricious, indulging in inordinate desires, go to hell.
कोहो पीइं पणासेइ माणो विणय-नासणो। माया मित्ताणि नासेइ लोहो सव्व-विणासणो॥ २० ॥ क्रोधः प्रीतिं प्रणाशयति मानो विनयनाशनः । माया मित्राणि नाशयति लोभः सर्वविनाशनः ॥२०॥
Anger destroys love, pride destroys modesty, hypocrisy destroys friendship, while avarice destroys every thing.
