அழுக்கா றுடையான்கண் ஆக்கம்போன்று இல்லை 
ஒழுக்க மிலான்கண் உயர்வு

As envious people can’t become great,
indisciplined people don't grow

Vizhiyappan's Commentary: As the envious people cannot become the great, those who are not disciplined cannot grow higher.

(Likewise...)

As the mentally distracted people cannot be focused, those who do not think good cannot sleep peacefully.
