Nidhiṁ nidheti puriso,
gambhīre odakantike;
Atthe kicce samuppanne,
atthāya me bhavissati.

Rājato vā duruttassa,
corato pīḷitassa vā;
Iṇassa vā pamokkhāya,
dubbhikkhe āpadāsu vā;
Etadatthāya lokasmiṁ,
nidhi nāma nidhīyati.

Tāvassunihito santo,
gambhīre odakantike;
Na sabbo sabbadā eva,
tassa taṁ upakappati.

Nidhi vā ṭhānā cavati,
saññā vāssa vimuyhati;
Nāgā vā apanāmenti,
yakkhā vāpi haranti naṁ.

Appiyā vāpi dāyādā,
uddharanti apassato;
Yadā puññakkhayo hoti,
sabbametaṁ vinassati.

Yassa dānena sīlena,
saṁyamena damena ca;
Nidhī sunihito hoti,
itthiyā purisassa vā.

Cetiyamhi ca saṅghe vā,
puggale atithīsu vā;
Mātari pitari cāpi,
atho jeṭṭhamhi bhātari.

Eso nidhi sunihito,
ajeyyo anugāmiko;
Pahāya gamanīyesu,
etaṁ ādāya gacchati.

Asādhāraṇamaññesaṁ,
acorāharaṇo nidhi;
Kayirātha dhīro puññāni,
yo nidhi anugāmiko.

Esa devamanussānaṁ,
sabbakāmadado nidhi;
Yaṁ yadevābhipatthenti,
sabbametena labbhati.

Suvaṇṇatā susaratā,
susaṇṭhānā surūpatā;
Ādhipaccaparivāro,
sabbametena labbhati.

Padesarajjaṁ issariyaṁ,
cakkavattisukhaṁ piyaṁ;
Devarajjampi dibbesu,
sabbametena labbhati.

Mānussikā ca sampatti,
devaloke ca yā rati;
Yā ca nibbānasampatti,
sabbametena labbhati.

Mittasampadamāgamma,
yonisova payuñjato;
Vijjāvimuttivasībhāvo,
sabbametena labbhati.

Paṭisambhidā vimokkhā ca,
yā ca sāvakapāramī;
Paccekabodhi buddhabhūmi,
sabbametena labbhati.

Evaṁ mahatthikā esā,
yadidaṁ puññasampadā;
Tasmā dhīrā pasaṁsanti,
paṇḍitā katapuññatanti.

Nidhikaṇḍasuttaṁ.
