1At Sāvatthī.

Standing to one side, that deity recited this verse in the Buddha’s presence:

2“Those who are very confused about the teachings,
who may be led astray by the doctrines of others;
asleep, they have not woken up:
it is time for them to wake!”

3“Those who are unconfused about the teachings,
who won’t be led astray by the doctrines of others;
they’ve woken up, they rightly know,
they live smoothly in the rough.”

1Sāvatthinidānaṁ.

Ekamantaṁ ṭhitā kho sā devatā bhagavato santike imaṁ gāthaṁ abhāsi: 

2"Yesaṁ dhammā susammuṭṭhā,
paravādesu nīyare;
Suttā te nappabujjhanti,
kālo tesaṁ pabujjhitun"ti.

3"Yesaṁ dhammā asammuṭṭhā,
paravādesu na nīyare;
Te sambuddhā sammadaññā,
caranti visame saman"ti.
