- **Language:** Classical Chinese

### [17.94](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.441.17.94)

南門之中有五千沙門，揚聲大叫：「我今何罪來入此中？」馬頭羅剎手捉三鈷鐵叉，望胸而撞背上而出，將至鐵床之上，其床火然烟焰俱出來燒罪人。復有鐵斧斫罪人手寸寸而碎，一日一夜受罪萬端，求生不得求死不得。

> At the southern gate there were five thousand śramaṇas who cried out loudly: 'For what sin of ours have we come to enter into this place?' A horse-headed rākṣasa, holding a three-pronged iron fork in his hand, struck through their chests and pierced out through their backs, bringing them onto the iron bed. The bed caught fire, and smoke and flames came forth together to burn the sinful persons. There were also iron axes that chopped the sinful persons' hands, shattering them inch by inch. Day and night they endured myriad kinds of punishment, seeking life but unable to attain it, seeking death but unable to attain it.
