第四、論品有無者，羅什翻經但有二十七品，後更有〈提婆達多品〉者，釋道慧《宋齊錄》云「上定林寺釋法獻於于闐國得此一品。瓦官寺沙門釋法意以齊永明八年十二月譯出為《提婆達多品經》，未安《法華》內。梁末有西天竺優禪尼國人名婆羅末陀此云真諦，又翻出此品，始安〈見寶塔品〉後也」。

> Fourth, concerning the discussion of the presence or absence of chapters: Kumārajīva's translation of the sūtra had only twenty-seven chapters. Regarding the subsequent presence of the "Devadatta Chapter," Shi Daohui's Song-Qi Catalogue states: "Shi Faxian of Upper Dinglin Monastery obtained this single chapter in the Kingdom of Khotan. In the twelfth month of the eighth year of the Yongming reign of the Qi (490 CE), Śramaṇa Shi Fayi of Waguan Monastery translated it as the Devadatta Chapter Sūtra, but had not yet placed it within the Lotus \[Sūtra\]. At the end of the Liang, there was a man from the Kingdom of Ujjayinī in Western India named Paramārtha, here translated as Zhendi, who again translated this chapter, and only then was it placed after the 'Apparition of the Jeweled Stūpa Chapter'."
