釋和尚昔在關中。令鳩摩羅跋提出此經。其人不閑晉語。似偈本難譯遂隱而不傳至於斷章直云修妬路。及見提婆。乃知有此偈。以偈檢前所出。又多首尾隱沒互相涉入。譯人所不能傳者。彬彬然。是以勸令更出。以晉泰元十六年歲在單閼貞于重光。其年冬於尋陽南山精舍。提婆自執胡經。先誦本文。然後乃譯為晉語。比丘道慈筆受。至來年秋。復重與提婆挍正。以為定本。時眾僧上座竺僧根支僧純等八十人。地主江州刺史王凝之。優婆塞西陽太守任固之。為檀越。並共勸佐而興立焉。

> When the Master Shi \[Dao'an\] was formerly in Guanzhong, he ordered Kumārabodhi to produce this scripture. That man was not conversant in the Jin language; the verses seemed difficult to translate, so he suppressed them without transmission, and when dividing sections, he simply called them sūtras. When Saṅghadeva was met, it was then known that these verses existed. When the verses were used to inspect the previous translation, beginnings and ends were largely obscured, mutually encroaching upon one another; what the translator could not convey was widespread. For this reason, he was encouraged to produce it anew. In the sixteenth year of Taiyuan of the Jin dynasty, the year being danyan and the zhen being chongguang (391 CE), in the winter of that year at the Southern Mountain Vihāra in Xunyang, Saṅghadeva himself held the Hu scripture, first reciting the original text, and then translating it into the Jin language. The bhikṣu Daoci acted as scribal recorder. By the autumn of the following year, he collated and corrected it once more with Saṅghadeva to establish it as the definitive version. At that time, the elders of the monastic assembly, Zhu Senggen, Zhi Sengchun, and others, eighty people in all, together with the local master, the Inspector of Jiangzhou Wang Ningzhi, and the upāsaka Prefect of Xiyang Ren Guzhi as dānapatis, all jointly encouraged and assisted in establishing it.
