   Then the brahmin Jānussoṇi went up to the Buddha, and exchanged greetings with him. Seated to one side he said to the Buddha:

5. 5

   “यस्सस्सु,yas·sas·su भोbho गोतम,go·ta·ma यञ्ञोyañ·ño वाvā सद्धंsad·dhaṃ वाvā थालिपाकोthā·li·pā·ko वाvā देय्यधम्मंdey·ya·dham·maṃ वा,vā तेविज्जेसुte·vij·je·su ब्राह्मणेसुbrāh·ma·ṇe·su दानंdā·naṃ ददेय्या”ति।da·dey·yā

   “yassassu, bho gotama, yañño vā saddhaṁ vā thālipāko vā deyyadhammaṁ vā, tevijjesu brāhmaṇesu dānaṁ dadeyyā”ti.

   “Worthy Gotama, whoever has a sacrifice, an offering of food for ancestors, a dish of milk-rice prepared for an auspicious ceremony, or a gift to give, should give it to the brahmins who have mastered the three Vedic knowledges.”

6. 6

   “यथाya·thā कथंka·thaṃ पन,pa·na ब्राह्मण,brāh·ma·ṇa ब्राह्मणाbrāh·ma·ṇā तेविज्जंte·vij·jaṃ पञ्ञपेन्ती”ति?pañ·ña·pen·tī

   “Yathā kathaṁ pana, brāhmaṇa, brāhmaṇā tevijjaṁ paññapentī”ti?

   “But brahmin, how do the brahmins describe a brahmin who is proficient in the three Vedic knowledges?”

7. 7

   “इधi·dha खो,kho भोbho गोतम,go·ta·ma ब्राह्मणोbrāh·ma·ṇo उभतोu·bha·to सुजातोsu·jā·to होतिho·ti मातितोmā·ti·to चca पितितोpi·ti·to चca संसुद्धगहणिकोsaṃ·sud·dha·ga·ha·ṇi·ko यावyā·va सत्तमाsat·ta·mā पितामहयुगाpi·tā·ma·ha·yu·gā अक्खित्तोak·khit·to अनुपक्कुट्ठोa·nu·pak·kuṭ·ṭho जातिवादेन,jā·ti·vā·de·na अज्झायकोaj·jhā·ya·ko मन्तधरो,man·ta·dha·ro तिण्णंtiṇ·ṇaṃ वेदानंve·dā·naṃ पारगूpā·ra·gū सनिघण्डुकेटुभानंsa·ni·ghaṇ·ḍu·ke·ṭu·bhā·naṃ साक्खरप्पभेदानंsāk·kha·rap·pa·bhe·dā·naṃ इतिहासपञ्चमानं,i·ti·hā·sa·pañ·ca·mā·naṃ पदको,pa·da·ko वेय्याकरणो,vey·yā·ka·ra·ṇo लोकायतमहापुरिसलक्खणेसुlo·kā·ya·ta·ma·hā·pu·ri·sa·lak·kha·ṇe·su अनवयोति।a·na·va·yo·ti

   “Worthy Gotama, it’s when a brahmin is well born on both his mother’s and father’s side, stemming from a clean vessel, with irrefutable and impeccable genealogy back to the seventh paternal generation. He recites and remembers the hymns, and has mastered the three Vedas, together with their vocabularies and ritual performance, their phonology and word classification, and the testaments as fifth. He knows them word-by-word, and their grammar. He is well versed in cosmology and the marks of a great man.

8. 8

   एवंe·vaṃ खो,kho भोbho गोतम,go·ta·ma ब्राह्मणाbrāh·ma·ṇā तेविज्जंte·vij·jaṃ पञ्ञपेन्ती”ति।pañ·ña·pen·tī

   Evaṁ kho, bho gotama, brāhmaṇā tevijjaṁ paññapentī”ti.

   That’s how the brahmins describe a brahmin who is proficient in the three Vedic knowledges.”

9. 9

   “अञ्ञथाañ·ña·thā खो,kho ब्राह्मण,brāh·ma·ṇa ब्राह्मणाbrāh·ma·ṇā ब्राह्मणंbrāh·ma·ṇaṃ तेविज्जंte·vij·jaṃ पञ्ञपेन्ति,pañ·ña·pen·ti अञ्ञथाañ·ña·thā चca पनpa·na अरियस्सa·ri·yas·sa विनयेvi·na·ye तेविज्जोte·vij·jo होती”ति।ho·tī

   “Aññathā kho, brāhmaṇa, brāhmaṇā brāhmaṇaṁ tevijjaṁ paññapenti, aññathā ca pana ariyassa vinaye tevijjo hotī”ti.

   “Brahmin, a master of three knowledges according to the brahmins is quite different from a master of the three knowledges in the training of the Noble One.”

10. 10

    “यथाya·thā कथंka·thaṃ पन,pa·na भोbho गोतम,go·ta·ma अरियस्सa·ri·yas·sa विनयेvi·na·ye तेविज्जोte·vij·jo होति?ho·ti

    “Yathā kathaṁ pana, bho gotama, ariyassa vinaye tevijjo hoti?

    “But worthy Gotama, how is one a master of the three knowledges in the training of the Noble One?

    “Tena hi, brāhmaṇa, suṇāhi, sādhukaṁ manasi karohi; bhāsissāmī”ti.

    “Well then, brahmin, listen and apply your mind well, I will speak.”

13. 13

    “एवं,e·vaṃ भो”तिbho खोkho जाणुस्सोणिjā·ṇus·so·ṇi ब्राह्मणोbrāh·ma·ṇo भगवतोbha·ga·va·to पच्चस्सोसि।pac·cas·so·si

    “Evaṁ, bho”ti kho jāṇussoṇi brāhmaṇo bhagavato paccassosi.

    “Yes, worthy sir,” Jānussoṇi replied.

14. 14

    Bhagavā etadavoca:

    The Buddha said this:
