Version 1:
The bhikkhu [or bhikkhuni] who delights in awareness,
Who sees in unawareness the fearful –
He [or she] is not liable to suffer fall;
In Nibbana’s presence is such a one.
Version 2:
The monk [or nun] delighting in heedfulness,
seeing danger in heedlessness
— incapable of falling back —
stands right on the verge
of Unbinding.
Version 3:
The monk [or nun] who delights in heedfulness and looks with fear at heedlessness will not fall. He [or she] is close to Nibbana.
