Dear John and friends,

This one seems a little odd to me. If I was reading the Pali, it
would come out more like "Daughters, you would not do evil, nor cause
others to do evil." That is, it appears to be a fairly mild statement
of fact, rather than an admonition to the daughters of what should or
should not be done. I hope others on this list more expert in Pali
than me will jump in and correct me if I'm wrong, but it seems to me
that the future passive particple would be more appropriate for a
statment of what should or should not be done. Thus:

Dhiitaro, tumhehi paapa.m n'eva karetabba.m vaa na aparehi
kaaraapetabba.m.
