佛說佛名經 8.16

- **Language:** Classical Chinese

### [8.16](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.441.8.16)

「願弟子等，承是懺悔口業等罪所生功德，願生生世世具八音聲四無礙辯，常說和合利益之語，其聲清雅一切樂聞，善解眾生方俗言語。若有所說應時應限，令彼聽者則得解悟，超凡入聖開發慧眼。」

> May we disciples and the rest, by virtue of the merit generated by this kṣamā of sins of speech karma and the like, in lifetime after lifetime be endowed with the eight tones of voice and the four unobstructed dexterities in discourse; may we always speak words of harmony and benefit, with a tone that is pure and elegant, delighting all who hear it; may we be skilled at understanding the regional dialects of sentient beings. When we speak, may it be at the right time and with appropriate limits, causing listeners to achieve liberation and awakening, to transcend the ordinary, enter the noble, and open the eye of wisdom.”
