[1] THUS have I heard.

On a certain occasion the Exalted One was staying near Sāvatthī.

Then the Exalted One addressed the brethren, saying:

"Brethren."

"Yes, lord," replied those brethren to the Exalted One.

The Exalted One said:

"Through an element it is, brethren,
that beings flow together,
meet together.

Unbelievers flow together, meet together with unbelievers,
the unconscientious with the unconscientious,
the unwise with the unwise.

Believers flow together, meet together with believers,
the conscientious with the conscientious,
the wise with the wise.

In the past, brethren, through an element it was,
that beings flowed together,
met together.

Unbelievers flowed together, met together with unbelievers,
the unconscientious with the unconscientious,
the unwise with the unwise.

Believers flowed together, met together with believers,
the conscientious with the conscientious,
the wise with the wise.

In the future, brethren, through an element it will be,
that beings flow together,
meet together.

Unbelievers will flow together, meet together with unbelievers,
the unconscientious with the unconscientious,
the unwise with the unwise.

Believers will flow together, meet together with believers,
the conscientious with the conscientious,
the wise with the wise.

In the present, brethren, through an element it is,
that beings flow together,
meet together.

the unconscientious with the unconscientious,
the unwise with the unwise.

Believers flow together, meet together with believers,
