Dhammapada 77 [Khuddaka Nikaya]


6- Panditavagga, The Wise
2- Assajipunabbasuka Vatthu

Ovadeyya'nusaseyya, asabbha ca nivaraye;
satam hi so piyo hoti, asatam hoti appiyo.
77: The man of wisdom should admonish others; he should give advice and should prevent others from doing wrong; such a man is held dear by the good; he is disliked only by the bad.
