五分比丘尼戒本 1.34

1.34

「若二比丘尼共作惡行、有惡名聲，更相覆罪、觸惱眾僧。諸比丘尼語言：『汝二比丘尼共作惡行、有惡名聲，更相覆罪、觸惱眾僧。汝相遠離，捨是作惡、觸惱僧事，於佛法中增廣得安樂住。』二比丘尼言：『我等不作惡行、無惡名聲，不相覆罪、不觸惱僧。僧見我等羸弱，輕易我故作如是語。』諸比丘尼復言：『莫作是語。何以故？僧不見汝羸弱輕易汝等。汝等可相遠離，捨是作惡、觸惱僧事，於佛法中增廣得安樂住。』如是諫堅持不捨，應第二、第三諫。第二、第三諫捨是事善。不捨者，是比丘尼三諫，犯僧伽婆尸沙可悔過。

"If two bhikṣuṇīs together engage in bad conduct, have an evil reputation, conceal each other's offenses, and trouble and vex the saṅgha, the bhikṣuṇīs should say to them: 'You two bhikṣuṇīs together engage in bad conduct, have an evil reputation, conceal each other's offenses, and trouble and vex the saṅgha. Distance yourselves from each other; abandon this bad conduct and troubling of the saṅgha, so that you may grow and dwell at ease within the Buddhadharma.' If the two bhikṣuṇīs say: 'We do not engage in bad conduct, have no evil reputation, do not conceal each other's offenses, and do not trouble and vex the saṅgha. The saṅgha sees that we are frail and, looking down on us, speaks like this.' The bhikṣuṇīs should again say: 'Do not speak like this. Why is that? The saṅgha does not look down on you because it sees you as frail. You should distance yourselves from each other; abandon this bad conduct and troubling of the saṅgha, so that you may grow and dwell at ease within the Buddhadharma.' If, when thus admonished, they obstinately persist and do not abandon it, they should be admonished a second and a third time. If on being admonished a second or third time they abandon it, that is well. If they do not abandon it, those bhikṣuṇīs, through three admonitions, commit a saṅghāvaśeṣa that requires deśanā.
