### [42.52](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2122.42.52)

屋舍覆陰施　所欲隨意得  
吉祥賢聖眾　處中而受用  
世有黠慧人　乃知於此處  
請持戒梵行　修福設飲食  
僧口祝願故　宅神常歡喜  
善心生守護　長夜於中住  
若入於聚落　及以曠野處  
若晝若於夜　天神常隨護

> Giving shelter with a house / allows one to obtain whatever one desires at will. / An auspicious assembly of worthy and holy ones / dwells within and enjoys its use. / When there are wise people in the world, / they know that in such a place / they should invite those who keep precepts and pure conduct, / cultivating merit and preparing food and drink. / Because of the blessings and prayers from the Saṃgha's mouths, / the house deity is always joyful, / generates a good mind and protects them, / dwelling within through the long night. / Whether entering a village / or in wilderness places, / whether by day or by night, / heavenly deities will always accompany and protect them.
