經　爾時魔王合掌恭敬說伽陀曰：「若有持此經，能伏諸煩惱，如是眾生類，擁護令安樂。若有說是經，諸魔不得便，由佛威神力，我當擁護彼。」爾時妙吉祥天子亦於佛前說伽陀曰：「諸佛妙菩提，於此經中說，若持此經者，是供養如來。我當持此經，為俱胝天說，恭敬聽聞者，勸至菩提處。」爾時慈氏菩薩合掌恭敬說伽陀曰：「若見住菩提，與為不請友，乃至捨身命，為護此經王。我聞如是法，當往覩史天，由世尊加護，廣為人天說。」爾時上座大迦葉波合掌恭敬說伽陀曰：「佛於聲聞乘，說我鮮智慧，我今隨自力，護持如是經。若有持此經，我當攝受彼，授其辭辨力，常隨讚善哉。」爾時具壽阿難陀合掌向佛說伽陀曰：「我親從佛聞，無量眾經典，未曾聞如是，深妙法中王。我今聞是經，親於佛前受，諸樂菩提者，當為廣宣通。」

> Sūtra: At that time, the King of Māra joined his palms with reverence and spoke gāthās, saying:  
> "If there are those who uphold this sūtra,  
> They are able to subdue all afflictions;  
> Such classes of sentient beings,  
> I shall protect, causing them to be peaceful and happy.  
> If there are those who preach this sūtra,  
> All māras shall not obtain an opportunity \[to harm them\];  
> By the Buddha's spiritual power,  
> I shall protect them."  
> At that time, the devaputra Mañjuśrī also spoke gāthās before the Buddha, saying:  
> "The wondrous bodhi of all buddhas  
> Is preached within this sūtra;  
> If one upholds this sūtra,  
> That is an offering to the Tathāgata.  
> I shall uphold this sūtra,  
> And preach it for koṭis of devas;  
> Those who reverently listen,  
> I shall encourage to reach the state of bodhi."  
> At that time, Maitreya Bodhisattva joined his palms with reverence and spoke gāthās, saying:  
> "Seeing those who abide in bodhi,  
> I shall be their unasked friend;  
> Even abandoning body and life,  
> In order to protect this king of sūtras.  
> Having heard such a Dharma as this,  
> I shall go to the Tuṣita heaven;  
> Through the World-Honoured One's empowered protection,  
> I shall preach it widely for humans and devas."  
> At that time, the Elder Mahākāśyapa joined his palms with reverence and spoke gāthās, saying:  
> "The Buddha, in the Śrāvakayāna,  
> Said that I had scant wisdom;  
> I now, in accordance with my own power,  
> Shall guard and uphold such a sūtra as this.  
> If there are those who uphold this sūtra,  
> I shall embrace and assist them,  
> Bestow upon them the power of eloquence,  
> And constantly follow them praising, 'Well done!'"  
> At that time, the Venerable Ānanda joined his palms toward the Buddha and spoke gāthās, saying:  
> "I personally heard from the Buddha  
> Immeasurable multitudes of scriptures,  
> Yet I have never heard such a  
> King among the profound and wondrous Dharmas as this.  
> Now having heard this sūtra,  
> I receive it directly before the Buddha;  
> For all those who delight in bodhi,  
> I shall broadly proclaim and propagate it."
