Manu 3.138

न श्राद्धे भोजयेन्) मित्रं धनैः कार्यो) ऽअस्य संग्रहः । नारिं न मित्रं यं विद्यात्) तं श्राद्धे भोजयेद्) द्विजम् ॥

na śrāddhe bhojayen) mitraṃ dhanaiḥ kāryo) 'asya saṃgrahaḥ | nāriṃ na mitraṃ yaṃ vidyāt) taṃ śrāddhe bhojayed) dvijam ||

Devanagari rendered by HREEM from the edition's roman (IAST) text; the IAST is the edition's own.

Let him not entertain a personal friend at a funeral sacrifice; he may gain his affection by (other) valuable gifts; let him feed at a 6raddha a Brāhmaṇa whom he considers neither as a foe nor as a friend.. He who performs funeral sacrifices and offerings to the gods chiefly for the sake of (gaining) friends, reaps after death no reward for 6raddhas and sacrifices.

Translated by Georg BühlerFrom an unproofread scan of the printed edition; spelling and line breaks may carry OCR errors.
