Yañhi kiccaṃ apaviddhaṃ,
akiccaṃ pana karīyati;
Unnaḷānaṃ pamattānaṃ,
tesaṃ vaḍḍhanti āsavā.

What ought to be done is neglected, what ought not to be done is done; the desires of unruly, thoughtless people are always increasing.

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