13.18

寶達頃前更入火箭地獄。云何名曰火箭地獄?其獄縱廣九十由旬,鐵壁周匝猛火絕炎,地有鐵鏘遍布其地,烟火洞然來燒罪人,其地四面爛風俱起,於虛空中猛風卒疾來吹鐵山。其山相磨則成火箭,火箭相揩烟火俱熾,其箭身毛亦皆火然,來射罪人,從頭而入足下而出,背上而入胸前而出,左右通徹瘡中火然烟焰俱出。罪人號叫痛不可言,一日一夜受無量罪,千死千生萬死萬生。

A short while later, Baoda further entered the Fire-Arrow Hell. Why is it named the Fire-Arrow Hell? That hell is ninety yojanas in length and breadth, enclosed on all sides by iron walls, with fierce fire and blazing flames; the ground is entirely covered with iron pikes, and smoking fire blazes furiously to scorch the sinners. On its four sides, festering winds rise together, and in the void, a fierce wind abruptly rushes to blow against iron mountains. When the mountains grind against each other, they turn into fire-arrows; when the fire-arrows rub against each other, smoke and fire flare together; the shafts and feathers of the arrows are also on fire, and they come and shoot the sinners, entering through the head and coming out beneath the feet, entering through the back and coming out through the chest, piercing through from left to right, with fire burning and smoke and flames issuing from the wounds. The sinners cry out in agony beyond words, undergoing immeasurable retributions day and night, dying a thousand deaths and taking a thousand births, dying ten thousand deaths and taking ten thousand births.
