   Tena samayena buddho bhagavā sāvatthiyaṁ viharati jetavane anāthapiṇḍikassa ārāme.

   At one time when the Buddha was staying at Sāvatthī in Anāthapiṇḍika’s Monastery,

8. 8

   Tena kho pana samayena chabbaggiyā bhikkhū bhikkhūnaṁ bhaṇḍanajātānaṁ kalahajātānaṁ vivādāpannānaṁ pesuññaṁ upasaṁharanti;

   the monks from the group of six were engaged in malicious talebearing between monks who were arguing.

9. 9

   imassa sutvā amussa akkhāyanti, imassa bhedāya; amussa sutvā imassa akkhāyanti, amussa bhedāya.

   After hearing something on one side they reported it to the other side, and vice versa, in order to create division between them.

10. 10

    Tena anuppannāni ceva bhaṇḍanāni uppajjanti, uppannāni ca bhaṇḍanāni bhiyyobhāvāya vepullāya saṁvattanti.

    In this way they started new quarrels and made existing quarrels worse.

11. 11

    Ye te bhikkhū appicchā …pe… te ujjhāyanti khiyyanti vipācenti—

    The monks of few desires complained and criticized them,

12. 12

    “कथञ्हिka·thañ·hi नामnā·ma छब्बग्गियाchab·bag·gi·yā भिक्खूbhik·khū भिक्खूनंbhik·khū·naṃ भण्डनजातानंbhaṇ·ḍa·na·jā·tā·naṃ कलहजातानंka·la·ha·jā·tā·naṃ विवादापन्नानंvi·vā·dā·pan·nā·naṃ पेसुञ्ञंpe·suñ·ñaṃ उपसंहरिस्सन्ति,u·pa·saṃ·ha·ris·san·ti इमस्सi·mas·sa सुत्वाsut·vā अमुस्सa·mus·sa अक्खायिस्सन्ति,ak·khā·yis·san·ti इमस्सi·mas·sa भेदाय;bhe·dā·ya

    “How can the monks from the group of six engage in malicious talebearing between monks who are arguing?

    amussa sutvā imassa akkhāyissanti, amussa bhedāya.

    How can they report to one side what they have heard on the other side, and vice versa, in order to create division,

    Tena anuppannāni ceva bhaṇḍanāni uppajjanti, uppannāni ca bhaṇḍanāni bhiyyobhāvāya vepullāya saṁvattantī”ti.

    and in this way start new quarrels and make existing quarrels worse?”

    After rebuking those monks in many ways, they told the Buddha. Soon afterwards he had the Sangha gathered and questioned those monks:

16. 16

    “सच्चंsac·caṃ किरki·ra तुम्हे,tum·he भिक्खवे,bhik·kha·ve भिक्खूनंbhik·khū·naṃ भण्डनजातानंbhaṇ·ḍa·na·jā·tā·naṃ कलहजातानंka·la·ha·jā·tā·naṃ विवादापन्नानंvi·vā·dā·pan·nā·naṃ पेसुञ्ञंpe·suñ·ñaṃ उपसंहरथ,u·pa·saṃ·ha·ra·tha इमस्सi·mas·sa सुत्वाsut·vā अमुस्सa·mus·sa अक्खायथ,ak·khā·ya·tha इमस्सi·mas·sa भेदाय,bhe·dā·ya अमुस्सa·mus·sa सुत्वाsut·vā इमस्सi·mas·sa अक्खायथ,ak·khā·ya·tha अमुस्सa·mus·sa भेदाय?bhe·dā·ya

    “Is it true, monks, that you do this?”

18. 18

    “सच्चं,sac·caṃ भगवा”ति।bha·ga·vā

    “Saccaṁ, bhagavā”ti.

    “It’s true, sir.”

    there is malicious talebearing in two ways: for one wanting to endear himself and for one aiming at division.
