Translator: Mahāsaṅgīti Tipiṭaka Buddhavasse 2500

Evaṁ me sutaṁ—

ekaṁ samayaṁ bhagavā rājagahe viharati veḷuvane kalandakanivāpe.

Tatra kho bhagavā bhikkhū āmantesi:

“bhikkhavo”ti.

“Bhadante”ti te bhikkhū bhagavato paccassosuṁ.

Bhagavā etadavoca:

“Appamidaṁ, bhikkhave, manussānaṁ āyu.

Gamanīyo samparāyo, kattabbaṁ kusalaṁ, caritabbaṁ brahmacariyaṁ.

Natthi jātassa amaraṇaṁ.

Yo, bhikkhave, ciraṁ jīvati, so vassasataṁ appaṁ vā bhiyyo”ti.

Atha kho māro pāpimā yena bhagavā tenupasaṅkami; upasaṅkamitvā bhagavantaṁ gāthāya ajjhabhāsi:

“Dīghamāyu manussānaṁ,

na naṁ hīḷe suporiso;

Careyya khīramattova,

natthi maccussa āgamo”ti.

“Appamāyu manussānaṁ,

hīḷeyya naṁ suporiso;

Careyyādittasīsova,

natthi maccussa nāgamo”ti.

Atha kho māro …pe… tatthevantaradhāyīti.
