I- Yamakavagga, The Pairs
7- Devadatta Vatthu
Anikkasavo kasavam, yo vattham paridahissati,
apeto damasaccena, na so kasavamarahati.
Yo ca vantakasav'assa, silesu susamahito,09: He who is not free from taints of moral defilements (kilesas) and yet dons the yellow robe, who lacks restraint in his senses and (speaks not the) truth is unworthy of the yellow robe.
upeto damasaccena, sa ve kasavamarahati.
10: He who has discarded all moral defilements (kilesas), who is established in moral precepts, is endowed with restraint and (speaks the) truth is, indeed, worthy of the yellow robe.
