慈悲道場懺法 3.20

3.20

「復有眾生，腹大頸細不能下食，若有所食變為膿血。何罪所致？」佛言：「以前世時偷盜眾食，或為大會施設餚饍，私取麻米屏處食之。慳惜己物但貪他有，常行惡心，與人毒藥氣息不通。故獲斯罪。」

"There are sentient beings with large bellies and slender necks who cannot swallow food, and if they eat anything, it turns into pus and blood. What sin has caused this?" The Buddha said: "In former lives, they stole the community's food, or when preparing fine foods for large assemblies, secretly took hemp and rice to eat in secluded places; they were stingy with their own possessions and only coveted those of others; they constantly harbored evil intentions, giving others poison so their breath was cut off. Thus they receive this retribution of sin."
