Vuttañhetaṁ bhagavatā vuttamarahatāti me sutaṁ:

“Tayome, bhikkhave, devesu devasaddā niccharanti samayā samayaṁ upādāya.
Katame tayo?
Yasmiṁ, bhikkhave, samaye ariyasāvako kesamassuṁ ohāretvā kāsāyāni vatthāni acchādetvā agārasmā anagāriyaṁ pabbajjāya ceteti, tasmiṁ samaye devesu devasaddo niccharati:
‘eso ariyasāvako mārena saddhiṁ saṅgāmāya cetetī’ti.
Ayaṁ, bhikkhave, paṭhamo devesu devasaddo niccharati samayā samayaṁ upādāya.

Puna caparaṁ, bhikkhave, yasmiṁ samaye ariyasāvako sattannaṁ bodhipakkhiyānaṁ dhammānaṁ bhāvanānuyogamanuyutto viharati, tasmiṁ samaye devesu devasaddo niccharati:
‘eso ariyasāvako mārena saddhiṁ saṅgāmetī’ti.
Ayaṁ, bhikkhave, dutiyo devesu devasaddo niccharati samayā samayaṁ upādāya.

Puna caparaṁ, bhikkhave, yasmiṁ samaye ariyasāvako āsavānaṁ khayā anāsavaṁ cetovimuttiṁ paññāvimuttiṁ diṭṭheva dhamme sayaṁ abhiññā sacchikatvā upasampajja viharati, tasmiṁ samaye devesu devasaddo niccharati:
‘eso ariyasāvako vijitasaṅgāmo tameva saṅgāmasīsaṁ abhivijiya ajjhāvasatī’ti.
Ayaṁ, bhikkhave, tatiyo devesu devasaddo niccharati samayā samayaṁ upādāya.
Ime kho, bhikkhave, tayo devesu devasaddā niccharanti samayā samayaṁ upādāyā”ti.
Etamatthaṁ bhagavā avoca.
Tatthetaṁ iti vuccati:

“Disvā vijitasaṅgāmaṁ,
sammāsambuddhasāvakaṁ;
Devatāpi namassanti,
mahantaṁ vītasāradaṁ.

Namo te purisājañña,
yo tvaṁ dujjayamajjhabhū;
Jetvāna maccuno senaṁ,
vimokkhena anāvaraṁ.

Iti hetaṁ namassanti,
devatā pattamānasaṁ;
Tañhi tassa na passanti,
yena maccuvasaṁ vaje”ti.

Ayampi attho vutto bhagavatā, iti me sutanti.
Tatiyaṁ.
