### [19.47](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2123.19.47)

一切要歸盡　高者會當墮  
生者無不死　有命皆無常  
眾生墮有數　一切皆有為  
一切諸世間　無有不老死  
眾生是常法　生生皆歸死  
隨其所造業　罪福有果報  
惡業墮地獄　善業生天上  
高行生善道　得無漏涅槃

> 'All things must end in exhaustion;  
> what is high will surely fall.  
> Among the living, none do not die;  
> all who have life are impermanent.  
> Sentient beings fall into finite existence;  
> all things are conditioned.  
> In all the worlds,  
> there is nothing that does not age and die.  
> This is the constant rule for sentient beings:  
> birth after birth, all return to death.  
> In accordance with the karma they have created,  
> guilt and merit bring their retribution.  
> Evil karma falls into the hells;  
> good karma is born in heaven.  
> Exalted practice is born in the good realms,  
> and attains untainted nirvāṇa.'
