塔；不如是族姓子、族姓女闻此宝严经，受持讽诵为他人说，不诽谤也。若有女人说此经者，是女人终不堕恶趣，亦不复受女人身也。 “复次迦叶！若有族姓，欲以一切珍妙供养此经典者，当受持读诵书写经卷为他人说，是为供养此经典已。若有受持讽诵书写为人说者，则为供养诸佛如来。” 佛说此经时，尊者大迦叶，一切天、龙、鬼神、世间人民，闻佛说已，欢喜奉行。 佛说摩诃衍宝严经 现代汉语译本：佛陀说：‘迦叶，如果善男子、善女人听闻这部《宝严经》，能够接受、持诵、背诵并为他人宣说，而且不诽谤它。如果有女人宣说这部经，这个女人最终不会堕入恶道，也不会再受女人之身。’ ‘再者，迦叶！如果有善男子、善女人，想要用一切珍贵的物品来供养这部经典，应当受持、读诵、书写这部经卷，并为他人宣说，这才是真正供养了这部经典。如果有人受持、背诵、书写并为他人宣说，那就是供养了诸佛如来。’ 佛陀宣说这部经时，尊者大迦叶（Mahakasyapa），以及一切天、龙、鬼神、世间人民，听闻佛陀所说后，都欢喜地奉行。 佛说《摩诃衍宝严经》（Mahayana Ratnakuta Sutra）
English
English version: The Buddha said, 'Kasyapa, if a son or daughter of a good family hears this Ratnakuta Sutra, accepts, upholds, recites, and explains it to others without slandering it. If a woman explains this sutra, that woman will ultimately not fall into evil realms, nor will she be reborn as a woman again.' 'Furthermore, Kasyapa! If a son or daughter of a good family wishes to offer all precious and wonderful things to this sutra, they should accept, uphold, read, write, and explain this sutra to others; this is truly offering to this sutra. If someone accepts, upholds, recites, writes, and explains it to others, that is offering to all the Buddhas and Tathagatas.' When the Buddha spoke this sutra, the Venerable Mahakasyapa, as well as all the devas, nagas, yakshas, and people of the world, having heard what the Buddha said, joyfully practiced it. The Buddha spoke the Mahayana Ratnakuta Sutra. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
