6.188

其人趣中多受是苦,謂俱生飢渴匱乏苦,小來貧窮故。所欲不果匱乏苦,麁疎飲食匱乏苦。逼切追求攝受匱乏苦,為他卑下、被主逼切等苦。時節變異若寒若熱匱乏苦。黑闇等中障所作事業皆悉休廢匱乏苦。又受變壞老病死苦。由那落迦等中謂死為樂,故於彼趣不立為苦。

In the human destiny, they mostly suffer these pains: the pain of innate hunger, thirst, and deprivation due to poverty from youth; the pain of deprivation when desires are unfulfilled; the pain of deprivation regarding coarse food and drink; the pain of deprivation in desperately seeking and acquiring possessions, being in a base position under others, being oppressed by masters, and the like; the pain of deprivation when the seasons change between cold and heat; and the pain of deprivation when activities are halted due to obstacles such as darkness. Furthermore, they endure the sufferings of deterioration: old age, sickness, and death. Because in the narakas and other [lower realms] death is regarded as a relief, it is not posited as a suffering in those destinies.
