2.784

佛在羅閱祇。有信工師為比丘作骨、牙、角針筒,因廢業,無衣食,世人譏言:「望其得福,而反得殃。」比丘舉過白佛,因訶制戒。

The Buddha was in Rājagṛha. A faithful craftsman made needle cases of bone, ivory, and horn for the bhikṣus, and consequently abandoned his trade and lacked clothing and food. People of the world criticized them, saying: "Expecting to obtain merit, instead he incurred misfortune." The bhikṣus reported this fault to the Buddha, who thereupon rebuked them and formulated the precept.
