1“Mendicants, when a giver gives food, they give the recipients five things. What five? Long life, beauty, happiness, strength, and eloquence.

2Giving long life, they have long life as a god or human.

3Giving beauty, they have beauty as a god or human.

4Giving happiness, they have happiness as a god or human.

5Giving strength, they have strength as a god or human.

6Giving eloquence, they are eloquent as a god or human.

7When a giver gives food, they give the recipients five things.

8Being attentive, one is a giver of life, strength,
beauty, and eloquence.
An intelligent giver of happiness
gains happiness in return.

9Giving life, strength, beauty,
happiness, and eloquence,
they’re long-lived and famous
wherever they’re reborn.”
