Chapter 2 - Short Life And Long Life
If a certain man or woman kills a living being, as a result of this evil deed he or she will be born in Hell (Niraya). If born again in the human abode such a person will live a short life. But one who abstains from killing will be in a happy celestial (Deva ) plane; if one comes to be born as a human being one will live long.
