3. SerivavāṇijajātakaThe Wanton Merchant: a past life story

“Idha ce naṁ virādhesi, saddhammassa niyāmataṁ;
Idha ce naṁ → idha ce hi naṁ (bj, pts-vp-pli1) | ce → ce hi (bj, pts) | naṁ → idhacenaṁ (bj: machasaṁ, syā) | naṁ → idha ce hi naṁ (cck: sī. pī.) niyāmataṁ → niyāmakaṁ (sya1ed, sya2ed, mr) | niyāmataṁ → niyāmakaṁ (sya-all) | niyāmataṁ → niyāmakaṁ (bj: machasaṁ, syā) | niyāmataṁ → niyāmakaṁ (cck: syā. ka.)
If you fail to achieve certainty regarding the true teaching
Ciraṁ tvaṁ anutappesi, serivāyaṁva vāṇijo”ti.
anutappesi → anutapessasi (bj, pts-vp-pli1); anutappissasi (?) | anutappesi serivāyaṁva → anutapessasi serivāyaṁ va (pts) | anutapessasi → anutappesi (bj: machasaṁ, syā) | anutappesi → anutapessasi (cck: sī. pī.); anutappissasi (cck: ?)
you’ll regret it for a long time, like this wanton merchant.

Serivavāṇijajātakaṁ tatiyaṁ.
Serivavāṇijajātakaṁ → serivāvāṇijajātakaṁ (bj); serivāṇijajātakaṁ (pts-vp-pli1) | serivāvāṇijajātakaṁ → seriva (bj: syā); serivavāṇija (bj: machasaṁ)
