Devanagari rendered by HREEM from the edition's roman (IAST) text; the IAST is the edition's own.
Let him not be proud of his austerities; let him not utter a falsehood after he has offered a sacrifice; let him not speak ill of Brāhmaṇas, though he be tormented (by them); when he has bestowed (a gift), let him not boast of it. 37By falsehood a sacrifice becomes vain, by self-complacency (the reward for) austerities is lost, longevity by speaking evil of Brāhmaṇas, and (the reward of) a gift by boasting.
