Thus spoke the Bhagavān. After the Sugata had said this, the Teacher accordingly spoke again:

“The wise ones give with trust, respectfully, with their own hands,
At the right time, and without harming others.
After giving vast and great gifts,
They who always give in this way take fortunate rebirths.”

When the Bhagavān spoke thus, the monks rejoiced and praised what the Bhagavān had said.
