The Sutta Nipata is a Buddhist scripture, a sutta collection in the Khuddaka Nikaya, part of the Pali Canon of Theravada Buddhism. All its suttas consist largely of verse, though some also contain some prose. It is divided into five sections:
Uraga Vagga
Cula Vagga
Maha Vagga
Atthaka Vagga
Parayana Vagga
Some scholars consider this the oldest of all Buddhist scriptures. Others agree that it contains much very early material.
