2.77

Regarding the sūtra's "Heavenly Honoured One": because none among heavenly beings or humans can surpass him, he is called Heavenly Honoured One, and also called World-Honoured One. Ancient sūtra translators used the two designations interchangeably. In the Tang dynasty, Du Xingyi's translation of the Foding zuisheng jing uniformly addressed him as Noble Honoured One.
