Filled with insatiable desires, full of hypocrisy, pride and arrogance, holding evil ideas through delusion, they work with impure resolves.

Clinging to desire that can never be filled, full of hypocrisy, pride and intoxication, seizing false notions out of delusion, they act with impure resolves.

The portrait continues with the inner life of such a person. They rely on desire that can never be satisfied, and they are full of hypocrisy, pride and a kind of intoxication with themselves. Out of delusion they seize on false ideas and act from impure vows or resolves. The verse shows desire as a bottomless pit: the more it is fed, the more it demands. The earlier teaching that desire is the great enemy of understanding is here seen in its fullest form.
