Dhammapada 66 [Khuddaka Nikaya]


5 - Balavagga, The Fool
7 - Suppabuddhakutthi Vatthu

Caranti bala dummedha,
amitteneva attana;

karonta papakam kammam,
yam hoti katukapphalam.

66: With themselves as their own enemies, fools lacking in intelligence, move about doing evil deeds, which bear bitter fruits.
