1.92

四王獻中，先標供主，須彌四面有四那乾呵羅山，去地四萬二千由旬，縱廣亦爾。上有四王：東方天王名提頭賴吒，此云持國，領諸天眾並乾闥婆及毘舍闍二部鬼神；南方天王名毘樓勒叉，此云增長主，領諸天眾并鳩槃荼及薜茘多二部鬼神；西方天王名毘樓博叉，此云雜語，領諸天眾及龍富單那二部鬼神；北方天王名毘沙門，此云多聞，領諸天眾及夜叉、羅剎二部鬼神。是故向前鬼神王中列毘沙門，此等四王今來獻奉。「所設」已下辯供奉佛。倍過前者，倍過上來一切所設。下佛不受，不果却住。

In the offering of the Four Kings, the makers of the offerings are first designated. On the four sides of Mount Sumeru there are the four Nagarahāra Mountains, forty-two thousand yojanas above the earth, and equal in length and breadth. Atop them are the Four Kings: the Heavenly King of the East is named Dhṛtarāṣṭra, translated here as "Holder of the Realm," who governs the hosts of devas along with the two classes of ghosts and spirits, the gandharvas and piśācas; the Heavenly King of the South is named Virūḍhaka, translated here as "Lord of Increase," who governs the hosts of devas along with the two classes of ghosts and spirits, the kumbhāṇḍas and pretas; the Heavenly King of the West is named Virūpākṣa, translated here as "Diverse Speech," who governs the hosts of devas along with the two classes of ghosts and spirits, the nāgas and pūtanas; the Heavenly King of the North is named Vaiśravaṇa, translated here as "Much Hearing," who governs the hosts of devas along with the two classes of ghosts and spirits, the yakṣas and rākṣasas. For this reason, Vaiśravaṇa was listed above among the kings of ghosts and spirits; these Four Kings have now come to present offerings. From "what was prepared" downward, their offerings to the Buddha are explained. "Doubled beyond the previous" means it doubled everything that had been prepared above. Below, the Buddha does not accept it, and failing in their aim, they withdraw and stay put.
