（三八二）

(382)

Thus I have heard: One time, the Buddha was staying at the Residence of Sages in the Deer Preserve of Bārāṇasī.

382.2

如是我聞：

Thus have I heard:

382.3

一時，佛住波羅㮈仙人住處鹿野苑中。

At one time the Buddha was staying at Vārāṇasī in the Deer Park, the Place of the Ṛṣis.

382.4

爾時，世尊告諸比丘：「有四聖諦。何等為四？謂苦聖諦、苦集聖諦、苦滅聖諦、苦滅道跡聖諦。若比丘於苦聖諦當知、當解，於苦集聖諦當知、當斷，於苦滅聖諦當知、當證，於苦滅道跡聖諦當知、當修。」

At that time the Bhagavat addressed the bhikṣus: "There are four noble truths. What are the four? They are the noble truth of duḥkha, the noble truth of the origin of duḥkha, the noble truth of the cessation of duḥkha, and the noble truth of the path leading to the cessation of duḥkha. A bhikṣu should know and understand the noble truth of duḥkha; he should know and abandon the noble truth of the origin of duḥkha; he should know and realize the noble truth of the cessation of duḥkha; and he should know and cultivate the noble truth of the path leading to the cessation of duḥkha."

It was then that the Bhagavān addressed the monks, “There are four noble truths. What are the four? They are the noble truth of suffering, the noble truth of suffering’s formation, the noble truth of suffering’s cessation, and the noble truth of the path to suffering’s cessation.

“Supposing that a monk will know the noble truth of suffering, then he will understand [suffering] … will know the noble truth of suffering’s formation, then he will end [its formation] … will know the noble truth of suffering’s cessation, then he will realize [its cessation] … will know the noble truth of the path to suffering’s cessation, then he will cultivate [that path].”

382.5

佛說此經已，諸比丘聞佛所說，歡喜奉行。

When the Buddha had spoken this sūtra, the bhikṣus, having heard what the Buddha had spoken, rejoiced and put it into practice.

After the Buddha spoke this sūtra, the monks who heard what the Buddha taught rejoiced and approved.
