| 135. Ai không phải La-hán, Tự nhận là La-hán, Kẻ trộm Phạm thiên giới, Chính tối hạ bần tiện. Những hàng bần tiện này, Ta nói rõ cho Ông. 136. Bần tiện không vì sanh, Phạm chí không vì sanh, Do hành, thành bần tiện, Do hành, thành Phạm chí. 137. Do đây, nên hiểu biết, Như Ta trình bày rõ, Màtanga được danh, Bần tiện, ăn thịt chó. 138. Danh tối thượng khó đạt, Màtanga đạt được, Nhiều Sát-ly, Phạm chí, Ðến hầu hạ vị ấy. 139. Vị ấy leo thiên xa, Trên đường lớn không bụi, Từ bỏ mọi dục tham, Ðạt được Phạm thiên giới, Thọ sanh không ngăn chận, Vị ấy sanh Phạm thiên. |
135.He
who, not being a Worthy One claims that he is a Worthy One, is a thief in the world with its brahmàs, he is the worst of the outcastes. These, indeed, are said to be outcastes, those whom I have explained to you. 136. One is not an outcaste by birth, by birth one is not a brahmin, by deeds one becomes an outcaste, one becomes a brahmin by deeds. 137. You can know it also by this, as I (give you) this example: Sopaka, an untouchable's son, was renowned as Màtaïga. 138. This Màtaïga attained the highest repute, which was very hard to obtain, and many nobles and brahmins came to attend on him. 139. He ascended the way going to the gods, that dust-free great path, and having put away sensual desire, he went to the brahma worlds. Birth did not prevent him from being reborn in the brahma worlds. |
| 140. Có những Bà-la-môn, Sanh gia đình Ðạo sư, Hay sanh những gia đình Quyến thuộc với bùa chú, Họ vẫn thường được thấy, Làm các điều ác nghiệp, 141. Hiện tại bị khinh miệt, Ðời sau sanh ác thú, Thọ sanh không ngăn chận, Sanh ác thú đáng khinh. 142. Bần tiện không vì sanh, Phạm chí không vì sanh, Do hành thành bần tiện, Do hành thành Phạm chí. |
140.
Brahmins, though born in a family of scholars, and acquainted with the lore, are continuously to be seen (doing) deeds that are bad. 141. Reproachable in this life, |
| Khi được
nói vậy, Bà-la-môn Bhàradvàja bạch Thế Tôn:
Con nay qui y Tôn giả Gotama, qui y
Pháp và qui y chúng Tỷ-kheo. Mong Tôn giả Gotama nhận con làm đệ tử
cư sĩ, từ nay cho đến mạng chung, con trọn đời qui ngưỡng. |
After this
was said, the brahmin Aggikabhàradvàja said this to the Gracious
One:
Excellent, reverend Gotama!
Excellent, reverend Gotama!
