Dhammapada · 21.14

Saddho sīlena sampanno, yasobhogasamappito;Yaṃ yaṃ padesaṃ bhajati, tattha tattheva pūjito.

Saddho silena sampanno, yasobhogasamappito; Yam yam padesam bhajati, tattha tattheva pujito.

One who is faithful, virtuous, endowed with fame and wealth — wherever he goes, in every place is honored.
