### [38.9](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1735.38.9)

次正釋文，文亦三分：初讚請分中九頌半，分二：初八頌半供讚、後一頌請說。前中三：初一菩薩供讚、次一天王眾、餘皆天女。於中三：初一偈標、次四偈半讚。於中，初二偈美感應。皆言久者，佛應由機，機難有故。大海動者，動佛智海，竭苦海故。後二偈半讚具德，初偈具智斷、次半具恩。後一具此三德，是故應供。三一偈結讚及請，並可知。

> Next, directly explaining the text, which also has three parts: within the section of praise and request, there are nine and a half verses, divided into two: first, eight and a half verses of offerings and praise; and last, one verse of requesting the teaching. In the former, there are three parts: first, one \[verse\] of bodhisattvas offering and praising; next, one of the host of deva kings; the rest are all devīs. Within this, there are three points: first, one verse sets forth \[the theme\]; next, four and a half verses praise \[the Buddha\]. Therein, the first two verses extol sympathetic resonance. They both speak of 'long', because the Buddha's response depends on the capacity \[of beings\], and the capacity is rarely present. 'The great ocean moves' means moving the ocean of the Buddha's wisdom to dry up the ocean of suffering. The latter two and a half verses praise the possession of virtues: the first verse \[praises\] the possession of wisdom and abandonment; the next half \[praises\] the possession of grace. The last verse possesses all three virtues; therefore \[the Buddha\] is worthy of offerings. Third, one verse concludes the praise and makes the request, all of which can be known \[from the text\].
