下明不信，文別有四：一略明不信，「愚癡」無解，「破戒」無行，「喜生諍訟」毀正立邪。「捨十二部，誦外道典」顯前愚癡。「受畜不淨」顯前破戒。「言是佛聽」顯前淨訟。二呵以顯過，先開五門，後廣辯之。三「以如是惡比丘」下廣明不信，於中初明害持法人欲立制度，遮他習學。「何以故」下說是為非，初先總非，「所以」下釋，釋中五句。四「是人」下結答前問，「若有眾生信此經」下明其信人，「解半句者，或常或住」下領解中解一句者解常及住。「是名第十」遠結前德。

Below, it explains lack of faith, in which there are four distinct parts: First, it briefly explains lack of faith: "foolish" means having no understanding; "breaking the precepts" means having no practice; "prone to giving rise to disputes" means defaming the correct and establishing the deviant. "Abandoning the twelve divisions and reciting non-Buddhist classics" reveals the preceding foolishness; "receiving and hoarding impure things" reveals the preceding breach of precepts; "claiming that the Buddha permitted this" reveals the preceding disputes. Second, he rebukes them to reveal their faults, first opening five gateways and later extensively explaining them. Third, from "Because of such evil bhikṣus..." onward, it extensively explains lack of faith, wherein it first explains harming those who uphold the Dharma and desiring to set up regulations to obstruct others from studying; from "Why is this?" onward, it states right as wrong, first generally negating, and from "Wherefore..." onward explaining, with five clauses in the explanation. Fourth, from "These persons..." onward, it concludes the answer to the preceding question; from "If there are sentient beings who have faith in this sūtra..." onward explains the persons of faith; from "those who understand half a verse, either permanent or abiding..." onward, within the receptive understanding, understanding one verse means understanding permanence and abiding. "This is called the tenth" concludes the preceding virtues from afar.
