惡多難算　善少可陳　人天蓋寡
濁趣如塵　貴賤交易　貧富異因
校量優劣　樂苦昇沈

Evils are many, difficult to count; / Good deeds are few, easily enumerated. / Humans and devas are rare indeed; / The defiled destinies are like dust. / Noble and base trade places; / Poverty and wealth stem from different causes. / Weighing their merits and defects: / In joy and suffering, they rise and sink.
