[68] "Householders, there are these five dangers (ādīnava) for an unvirtuous person through failure in virtue (sīlavipatti). What five? Here, householders, an unvirtuous person, one who has failed in virtue, incurs great loss of wealth in consequence of negligence. This is the first danger for an unvirtuous person through failure in virtue.
"Furthermore, householders, an evil report of an unvirtuous person, one who has failed in virtue, spreads abroad. This is the second danger for an unvirtuous person through failure in virtue.
"Furthermore, householders, whatever assembly an unvirtuous person, one who has failed in virtue, approaches—whether an assembly of khattiyas, an assembly of brahmins, an assembly of householders, or an assembly of ascetics—he approaches it diffident and abashed. This is the third danger for an unvirtuous person through failure in virtue.
"Furthermore, householders, an unvirtuous person, one who has failed in virtue, dies confused. This is the fourth danger for an unvirtuous person through failure in virtue.
"Furthermore, householders, an unvirtuous person, one who has failed in virtue, with the breaking up of the body, after death, is reborn in a state of deprivation, a bad destination, a place of ruin, hell. This is the fifth danger for an unvirtuous person through failure in virtue.
"These, householders, are the five dangers for an unvirtuous person through failure in virtue."
