大姊僧听！如所说界方相，僧今于此处、彼处，结同一说戒，别利养。谁诸大姊忍僧于此四方相内，结同一说戒，别利养者默然，谁不忍者说。僧已忍于此四方相内，结同一说戒，别利养竟。僧忍，默然故，是事如是持。 (若二住处先共同说戒同利养，或同说戒别利养，后还欲别者。应先解界，后各自唱界相，依旧别结。) 结别说戒同一利养羯磨文 大姊僧听！若僧时到僧忍听，僧今于此、彼住处，结别说戒，同一利养，为守护住处故。白如是。 大姊僧听！僧今于此、彼住处，结别说戒，同一利养，为守护住处故。谁诸大姊忍僧于此、彼住处，结别说戒，同一利养，为守护住处故者默然，谁不忍者说。僧已忍于此、彼住处，结别说戒，同一利养，为守护住处故竟。僧忍，默然故，是事如是持。 现代汉语译本 大姐僧众请听！正如之前所说的区域边界，僧团现在于此处、彼处，结成共同诵戒，但各自接受供养。哪位大姐能够容忍僧团在这四个方向的区域内，结成共同诵戒，但各自接受供养的，请保持沉默；哪位不能容忍的，请说出来。僧团已经容忍在这四个方向的区域内，结成共同诵戒，但各自接受供养完毕。僧团容忍，因为大家沉默，此事就这样决定了。 （如果两个住处先前共同诵戒，共同接受供养，或者共同诵戒但各自接受供养，之后想要分开。应该先解除区域边界，然后各自宣告区域边界的范围，依旧分开结界。） 结成各自诵戒但共同接受供养的羯磨文 大姐僧众请听！如果僧团时间已到，僧团容忍并听取，僧团现在于此处、彼处住处，结成各自诵戒，但共同接受供养，为了守护住处。禀白如上。 大姐僧众请听！僧团现在于此处、彼处住处，结成各自诵戒，但共同接受供养，为了守护住处。哪位大姐能够容忍僧团于此处、彼处住处，结成各自诵戒，但共同接受供养，为了守护住处，请保持沉默；哪位不能容忍的，请说出来。僧团已经容忍于此处、彼处住处，结成各自诵戒，但共同接受供养，为了守护住处完毕。僧团容忍，因为大家沉默，此事就这样决定了。

English version Elder sisters of the Sangha, listen! As the boundaries and directions have been described, the Sangha now, in this place and that place, establishes a joint recitation of precepts (说戒, shuō jiè), but separate receiving of offerings. Which of you elder sisters can tolerate the Sangha establishing within these four directional boundaries a joint recitation of precepts, but separate receiving of offerings, let her be silent; who cannot tolerate it, let her speak. The Sangha has tolerated establishing within these four directional boundaries a joint recitation of precepts, but separate receiving of offerings. The Sangha tolerates it, therefore silence, this matter is thus held. (If two residences previously had a joint recitation of precepts and joint receiving of offerings, or a joint recitation of precepts but separate receiving of offerings, and later wish to separate, the boundaries should first be dissolved, and then each should declare the extent of their boundaries, and establish separate boundaries as before.) Text of the Karma (羯磨, jiémó) for establishing separate recitation of precepts but joint receiving of offerings Elder sisters of the Sangha, listen! If it is time for the Sangha, and the Sangha tolerates and listens, the Sangha now, in this place and that place of residence, establishes separate recitation of precepts, but joint receiving of offerings, for the sake of protecting the residence. Report as such. Elder sisters of the Sangha, listen!
