Idha tappati pecca tappati,
Pāpakārī ubhayattha tappati;
“Pāpaṃ me katan”ti tappati,
Bhiyyo tappati duggatiṃ gato.

The evil-doer suffers in this world, and he suffers in the next; he suffers in both. He suffers when he thinks of the evil he has done; he suffers more when going on the evil path.

Friedrich Max Müller 1881, The Dhammapada (Sacred Books of the East 10.1)
