Manu 8.318
राजभिः कृतदण्डास् तु कृत्वा) पापानि मानवाः । [म्राजभिर् धृतदण्डास् तु] निर्मलाः स्वर्गम् आयान्ति) सन्तः सुकृतिनो यथा ॥
rājabhiḥ kṛtadaṇḍās tu kṛtvā) pāpāni mānavāḥ | [M.rājabhir dhṛtadaṇḍās tu] nir.malāḥ svargam āyānti) santaḥ sukṛtino yathā ||
Devanagari rendered by HREEM from the edition's roman (IAST) text; the IAST is the edition's own.
But men who have committed crimes and have been punished by the king, go to heaven, being pure like those who performed meritorious deeds.
