66.17

又正法念經云。爾時夜摩天王。為諸天眾以要言之。於天人中有十六苦。何等十六。天人之中善道所攝。一者中陰苦。二者住胎苦。三者出胎苦。四者悑食苦。五者怨憎會苦。六者愛別離苦。七者寒熱等苦。八者病苦。九者他給使苦。十者遣求營作苦。十一者近惡知識苦。十二者妻子親里衰惱苦。十三者飢渴苦。十四者為他輕毀苦。十五者老苦。十六者死苦。如是十六人中大苦。於人世間乃至命終及餘眾苦。於生死中不可堪忍。於有為中無有少樂。一切無常。一切敗壞。爾時夜摩天王以偈頌曰。

Such are the sixteen great sufferings among humans. In the human realm, up unto the end of life as well as remaining various afflictions, [they] cannot be endured within saṃsāra. Within conditioned phenomena, there is not the slightest joy. All is impermanent; all is ruined and destroyed." At that time, King Yama spoke in verse, saying:
