Dānānisaṁsasutta

“Pañcime, bhikkhave, dāne ānisaṁsā. Katame pañca? Bahuno janassa piyo hoti manāpo; santo sappurisā bhajanti; kalyāṇo kittisaddo abbhuggacchati; gihidhammā anapagato hoti; kāyassa bhedā paraṁ maraṇā sugatiṁ saggaṁ lokaṁ upapajjati. Ime kho, bhikkhave, pañca dāne ānisaṁsāti.

“Mendicants, there are five benefits of giving. What five? A giver, a donor is dear and beloved by many people. Good and true persons associate with them. They get a good reputation. They don’t neglect a layperson’s duties. When their body breaks up, after death, they’re reborn in a good place, a heavenly realm. These are the five benefits of giving.

Dadamāno piyo hoti, sataṁ dhammaṁ anukkamaṁ; Santo naṁ sadā bhajanti, saññatā brahmacārayo.

Giving, one is loved, and follows the way of the good. The good, disciplined spiritual practitioners always associate with you.

Te tassa dhammaṁ desenti, Sabbadukkhāpanūdanaṁ; Yaṁ so dhammaṁ idhaññāya, Parinibbāti anāsavo”ti. Pañcamaṁ.

They teach you the Dhamma that casts aside all suffering. Having understood this teaching, the undefiled one is fully extinguished.”
