वैश्यो ऽअजीवन्) स्वधर्मेण शूद्रवृत्त्या-अपि वर्तयेत्) । अनाचरन्न्) अकार्याणि निवर्तेत) च शक्तिमान् ॥
vaiśyo 'a.jīvan) svadharmeṇa śūdravṛttyā-api vartayet) | an.ācarann) a.kāryāṇi nivarteta) ca śaktimān ||
Devanagari rendered by HREEM from the edition's roman (IAST) text; the IAST is the edition's own.
A Vaiśya who is unable to subsist by his own duties, may even maintain himself by a Śudra's mode of life, avoiding (however) acts forbidden (to him), and he should give it up, when he is able (to do so).
