And does not appropriately punish
The people who are guilty of bad acts,

“ ‘ “And ignores the evils that are done,
Then unrighteousness will increase greatly,
Conflicts and dishonesty
Will subsequently arise in the land,

“ ‘ “And the lords of devas³⁰⁰ will be disturbed
Within their Trāyastriṃśa palace.
Whenever a king does nothing about
The wicked inhabitants in his realm,

“ ‘ “Then there will be terrible dishonesty,
And dreadful people will vanquish his land.
The armies of adversaries will invade
And will completely destroy that land,

“ ‘ “And they will destroy property and families.
People will steal from one another,
Using many forms of dishonesty,
Whatever wealth has been accumulated. ³⁰¹

“ ‘ “There are the duties of kingship,
And if those activities are not carried out,
Then he will destroy his own kingdom
Like a king of elephants destroys a pond.

“ ‘ “Disastrous winds will blow,
Disastrous rains will fall,
And the sun, the moon, the planets,
And lunar asterisms will bring disaster.

“ ‘ “In the land where the king is impassive,
Seeds, harvests, flowers, and fruit
Will fail to ripen properly
And famines will occur.

“ ‘ “Whenever a king does nothing about
The wicked inhabitants in his realm,
Then the devas in their palaces
Will at that time become displeased.³⁰²

“ ‘ “All of those lords of devas
Will be saying to one another,
‘This king³⁰³ has no righteousness;
He is on the side of unrighteousness.’

“ ‘ “Such a king will before long
Cause the devas to be disturbed,
And because the devas are disturbed,
His kingdom will be completely destroyed.

“ ‘ “Unrighteousness will arise in that land,
And it will also be destroyed by weapons.³⁰⁴
Dishonesty and conflicts
And also illness will arise.

“ ‘ “The lords of devas will be enraged
And the devas will abandon him.
The kingdom will be destroyed
And the king will encounter misery.

“ ‘ “He will be separated from those he loves
Whether they be brothers or sons.
He will even be separated from his beloved wife
