11.10.4
爾時,有一比丘聞如來記別調達,受罪一劫不可療治。時,彼比丘便至尊者阿難所,共相問訊已,在一面坐。爾時,彼比丘問阿難曰:「云何,阿難!如來盡觀提婆達兜原本已,然後記別,受罪一劫不可療治乎?頗有所由可得而記耶?」
At the time, there was a monk who heard the Tathāgata predict: “Devadatta will receive a punishment for an eon that cannot be cured.” That monk then went to Venerable Ānanda, exchanged greetings with him, and sat to one side. The monk then asked Ānanda, “How is it, Ānanda? Did the Tathāgata examine all of Devadatta’s past before predicting this incurable punishment that he’ll receive for an eon? Or did he derive this prediction from another source?”
