Tiṇadosāni khettāni,
icchādosā ayaṃ pajā;
Tasmā hi vigaticchesu,
dinnaṃ hoti mahapphalaṃ.

The fields are damaged by weeds, mankind is damaged by lust: therefore a gift bestowed on those who are free from lust brings great reward.

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