Srimad Bhagavatam Canto 10, Chapter 64, Text 43

SB 10.64.43

brahmanartho hy apahrto
 hartaram patayaty adhah
ajanantam api hy enam
 nrgam brahmana-gaur iva
 
Translation: 
 
When a brahmana’s property is stolen, even unknowingly, it certainly causes the person who takes it to fall down, just as the brahmana’s cow did to Nrga.
 
Purport: 
 
The Lord here demonstrates that His instructions are not theoretical but practical, as seen concretely in the case of Nrga Maharaja.
