AN.4.220. Dussīlasutta ("Unethical")

Aṅguttara Nikāya ("Collections of Numbered Discourses")

“Mendicants, someone with four qualities is cast down to hell. What four? They’re faithless, unethical, lazy, and witless. Someone with these four qualities is cast down to hell.

Someone with four qualities is raised up to heaven. What four? They’re faithful, ethical, energetic, and wise. Someone with these four qualities is raised up to heaven.”
