1“Mendicants, these five qualities make a trainee assured. What five? It’s when a mendicant is faithful, ethical, learned, energetic, and wise.

2A person of faith doesn’t have the insecurities of someone who lacks faith. So this quality makes a trainee assured.

3An ethical person doesn’t have the insecurities of someone who is unethical. So this quality makes a trainee assured.

4A learned person doesn’t have the insecurities of a person of little learning. So this quality makes a trainee assured.

5An energetic person doesn’t have the insecurities of a lazy person. So this quality makes a trainee assured.

6A wise person doesn’t have the insecurities of someone who is witless. So this quality makes a trainee assured.

These are the five qualities that make a trainee assured.”
