Phẩm Song Yếu |
| 1. Mind precedes all knowables, mind's their chief, mind-made are they. If with a corrupted mind one should either speak or act dukkha follows caused by that, as does the wheel the ox's hoof. |
1. Ý dẫn đầu các pháp, |
| 2. Mind precedes all knowables, mind's their chief, mind-made are they. If with a clear, and confident mind one should speak and act happiness follows caused by that, as one's shadow ne'er departing. |

8. Ai sống quán bất tịnh, |
| 9. One who wears the stainless robe who's yet not free from stain, without restraint and truthfulness for the stainless robe's unfit. |

| 13. Even as the rain does penetrate a house that's badly thatched, likewise lust does penetrate the mind uncultivated. |
13. Như mái nhà vụng lợp, |
| 14. As rain does never penetrate a house that is well-thatched, so lust does never penetrate the mind well cultivated. |
14. Như ngôi nhà khéo lợp, |
| 15. Here one grieves, one grieves hereafter, in both ways does the evil-doer grieve; one grieves and is afflicted, one's own base kammas seeing. |
15. Nay sầu, đời sau sầu, |
| 16. Here one joys, one joys hereafter, in both ways does the merit-maker joy; one joys and one rejoices, one's own pure kammas seeing. |
16. Nay vui,đời sau vui, |
| 17. Here one burns, one burns hereafter, in both ways does the evil-doer burn; evil I've done, remorsefully one burns, and more one burns passed to realms of woe. |
17. Nay than, đời sau than, |
| 18. Here one's glad, one's glad hereafter, in both ways is the merit-maker glad; "Merit I've made", serenely one is glad, and more one's glad passed to blissful states. |
18. Nay sướng, đời sau sướng, |
| 19. Though many sacred texts he chants the heedless man's no practicer, as cowherd counting other's kine in samanaship he has no share. |

20. Dầu nói ít kinh điển, |
