5.43

gṛhe gurāv araṇye vā nivasann ātmavān dvijaḥ
nāvedavihitāṃ hiṃsām āpady api samācaret //

A twice-born man of virtuous disposition, whether he dwells in (his own) house, with a teacher, or in the forest, must never, even in times of distress, cause an injury (to any creature) which is not sanctioned by the Veda.

Georg Bühler 1886, The Laws of Manu
