धर्मेणोपलभेद्धर्ममधर्म चाप्यधर्मतः। यद्यधर्मेण युज्येयुर्येष्वधर्मः प्रतिष्ठितः॥ न धर्मेण वियुज्येरनाधर्मरुचयो जनाः। धर्मेणाचरतां तेषां तथा धर्मफलं भवेत्॥

English Meaning
If by means of virtue, one attain the felicity attached to it, and by means of unrighteouness, one reap its proper fruit, then let those that are unrighteous reap the fruit of their impiety nor let those that set their face against sin, be deprived of the fruit of their righteousness, and let those that walk in the way of virtue reap the fruit of their piety.
— M.N. Dutt (1891–94, public domain)
