刍即作是言：“然彼长者亦曾来请。又问彼云：‘去此几许？’答曰：‘三逾[跳-兆+善]那。’作是念言：‘若去至彼，恐夜不来。世尊不听于安居内界外而宿。’即便不去。”时诸苾刍以缘白佛，佛作是念：“我之声闻弟子，虽于衣食无贪着心，然欲令彼得安乐住故，复令施主得受用福，应开七日赴其请唤。”因集僧伽，告诸苾刍曰：“于安居中，有事须去出界外者，应请七日乃至一日当去。”佛令去者，苾刍不知何事应去？以缘白佛，佛言：“谓是邬波索迦、邬波斯迦、苾刍、苾刍尼、式叉摩拏、求寂男、求寂女等事。”不知何者是邬波索迦等事？佛言：“若邬波索迦家中有事，便以身所著衣并办饮食，即令使者请诸苾刍：‘唯愿圣者来受供养。’此则名为邬波索迦事。应对一苾刍蹲踞合掌受持七日法去。是谓邬波索迦缘。 “若邬波索迦，欲与苾刍卧具等物，并种种衣食，唤苾刍曰：‘唯愿圣众哀受我施衣食。’”佛言：“苾刍应守持七日法出界外。是名邬波索迦缘。 “若有邬波索迦，为诸苾刍无饮食故，多造上味美好饮食，来唤苾刍。”佛言：“应受持七日法出界外。是名邬波索迦事。 “复有邬波索迦，造窣睹波，欲安驮都，并办种种香花。来请苾刍曰：‘唯愿大德助我功德。’ 现代汉语译本 刍（Chú）即这样说：‘那位长者也曾来邀请。又问他：‘距离这里有多远？’回答说：‘三逾缮那（sān yú shàn nà，距离单位）。’（我）心想：‘如果去到那里，恐怕晚上回不来。世尊不允许在安居期间住在界外。’就没去。’当时，众比丘将此事禀告佛陀，佛陀心想：‘我的声闻弟子，虽然对衣食没有贪恋之心，但为了让他们能够安乐地居住，又让施主能够获得福报，应该允许他们接受七日的邀请。’于是召集僧伽，告诉众比丘说：‘在安居期间，如果有事需要出界外，应该请七日乃至一日的时间再去。’佛陀允许去，但比丘们不知道什么事情应该去？将此事禀告佛陀，佛陀说：‘是指优婆塞（yōu pó sāi，近事男）、优婆夷（yōu pó yí，近事女）、比丘（bǐ qiū，出家男众）、比丘尼（bǐ qiū ní，出家女众）、式叉摩那（shì chā mó nà，学戒女）、求寂男（qiú jì nán，沙弥）、求寂女（qiú jì nǚ，沙弥尼）等的事情。’不知道什么是优婆塞等的事情？佛陀说：‘如果优婆塞家中有事，就用自己所穿的衣服并准备饮食，然后派使者邀请众比丘：‘希望圣者们来接受供养。’这就叫做优婆塞的事情。应该对一位比丘蹲踞合掌，接受并遵守七日法而去。这就是所谓的优婆塞的因缘。 ‘如果优婆塞，想要给比丘卧具等物品，以及各种衣食，呼唤比丘说：‘希望圣众慈悲接受我所施舍的衣食。’’佛陀说：‘比丘应该遵守七日法出界外。这叫做优婆塞的因缘。 ‘如果有的优婆塞，因为众比丘没有饮食，就制作许多上等美味的饮食，来呼唤比丘。’佛陀说：‘应该接受并遵守七日法出界外。这叫做优婆塞的事情。 ‘又有优婆塞，建造窣堵波（sū dǔ bō，佛塔），想要安放驮都（tuó dōu，舍利），并准备各种香花。来邀请比丘说：‘希望大德帮助我完成功德。’

English version Chou (Chú) then said: 'That elder also came to invite me. And I asked him: 'How far is it from here?' He replied: 'Three Yojanas (sān yú shàn nà, a unit of distance).' I thought: 'If I go there, I'm afraid I won't be able to return at night. The World-Honored One does not allow staying outside the boundary during the Rainy Season Retreat.' So I didn't go.' At that time, the Bhikshus (bǐ qiū, monks) reported this matter to the Buddha, and the Buddha thought: 'My Shravaka (śrāvaka, disciple) disciples, although they have no greed for clothing and food, but in order to let them live in peace and let the donors receive blessings, they should be allowed to accept seven-day invitations.' So he gathered the Sangha (saṃgha, monastic community) and told the Bhikshus: 'During the Rainy Season Retreat, if there is something that requires going outside the boundary, you should ask for seven days or even one day before going.' The Buddha allowed them to go, but the Bhikshus did not know what matters they should go for? They reported this matter to the Buddha, and the Buddha said: 'It refers to the affairs of Upasakas (yōu pó sāi, lay male devotees), Upasikas (yōu pó yí, lay female devotees), Bhikshus (bǐ qiū, monks), Bhikshunis (bǐ qiū ní, nuns), Shikshamanas (śì chā mó nà, female trainees), Shramaneras (qiú jì nán, novice monks), and Shramanerikas (qiú jì nǚ, novice nuns).' They didn't know what the affairs of Upasakas, etc., were? The Buddha said: 'If there is something in the Upasaka's house, they will use the clothes they wear and prepare food and drink, and then send messengers to invite the Bhikshus: 'May the Venerable Ones come and receive offerings.' This is called the affair of the Upasaka. One Bhikshu should squat down, put his palms together, accept and abide by the seven-day rule before going. This is the so-called condition of the Upasaka. 'If an Upasaka wants to give Bhikshus bedding and other items, as well as various clothes and food, and calls out to the Bhikshus: 'May the Venerable Sangha compassionately accept my offering of clothes and food.'' The Buddha said: 'The Bhikshu should abide by the seven-day rule and go outside the boundary. This is called the condition of the Upasaka. 'If there is an Upasaka who, because the Bhikshus have no food and drink, makes a lot of high-quality and delicious food and calls out to the Bhikshus.' The Buddha said: 'You should accept and abide by the seven-day rule before going outside the boundary. This is called the affair of the Upasaka. 'Again, there is an Upasaka who builds a Stupa (sū dǔ bō, pagoda), wants to enshrine a Dhatu (tuó dōu, relic), and prepares various incense and flowers. He invites the Bhikshus and says: 'May the Great Virtues help me complete this merit.' --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
