The Long Āgama Sūtra 4.21

4.21

「『摩竭優婆塞，諸有命終者，
八萬四千人，吾聞俱得道。
成就須陀洹，不復墮惡趣，
俱乘平正路，得道能救濟。
此等群生類，功德所扶持，
智慧捨恩愛，慚愧離欺妄。
於彼諸天眾，梵童記如是；
言得須陀洹，諸天皆歡喜。』

“‘“Of those laymen of Magadha
Whose lives have ended,
Eighty-four thousand people,
I’ve heard, have attained the path.

They achieved stream entry,
Fell no more to bad destinies;
They rode on the even, straight road
And attained the path’s salvation.

All these crowds of people
Were sustained by virtue:
Wise, detached from affection,
Conscientious, and without deception.”

In that assembly of gods,
Brahmā Kumāra described them,
Saying they attained stream entry,
And all the gods rejoiced.
