Idha tappati, pecca tappati, pāpakārī ubhayattha tappati. "Pāpaṃ me katan"ti tappati, bhiyyo tappati, duggatiṃ gato. Idha nandati, pecca nandati, katapuñño ubhayattha nandati.

Rejoicing now in the knowledge that one has acted rightly, one rejoices more, gone to a state of bliss. Dhammapada 1.17, 1.18 View Pāli on Tipitaka.org The Discourse Summaries by S.N.
