閻羅王（或云剡魔或云𤓁魔皆訛略梵語也正云琰魔羅義飜為平等王謂典生死罪福之業主守八寒八熱大地獄伇使鬼卒於五趣中追攝罪人平等治罰捶拷故三啟經云將至琰魔王隨業而受報是其事也）。

King Yama (閻羅王: sometimes written Shanmo [剡魔], sometimes [𤓁魔], all of which are corrupt and abbreviated Sanskrit terms. Correctly it is Yamarāja [琰魔羅]; translated in meaning as the “King of Equality.” He oversees the karmas of transgressions and merits regarding life and death, and guards the eight cold and eight hot great hells. He employs ghost minions to pursue and arrest sinners in the five destinies, punishing and scourging them with impartial justice. Therefore the Sānqǐ jīng says, “Brought before King Yama, receiving retribution according to one's karma”—this is what it refers to).
