121-122*121:

Don't be heedless of evil
('It won't come to me').
A water jar fills,
even with water
falling     in     drops.
With evil -- even if
    bit
        by
        bit,
    habitually --
the fool fills himself full.

Don't be heedless of merit
('It won't come to me').
A water jar fills,
even with water
falling     in     drops.
With merit -- even if
    bit
        by
        bit,
    habitually --
the enlightened one fills himself full.

 




121 -122: "('It won't come to me')": The Thai edition reads this line as na mattam agamissati = "[Thinking] it won't amount to much."
