Make haste and do what is good; keep your mind away from evil.
If a man is slow in doing good, his mind finds pleasure in evil.
A man may find pleasure in evil as long as his evil has not given fruit; but when the fruit of evil comes then that man finds evil indeed.
A man may find pain in doing good as long as his good has not given fruit; but when the fruit of good comes then that man finds good indeed.
The fool who does evil to a man who is good, to a man who is pure and fee from sin, the evil returns to him like the dust thrown against the wind.
The fool who does evil to a man who is good, to a man who is pure and fee from sin, the evil returns to him like the dust thrown against the wind.
Neither in the sky, nor deep in the ocean, nor in a mountain-cave, nor anywhere, can a man be free from the evil he has done.
Neither in the sky, nor deep in the ocean, nor in a mountain-cave, nor anywhere, can a man be free from the power of death.
