Evaṃ me sutaṃ -
ekaṃ samayaṃ bhagavā rājagahe viharati veḷuvane kalandakanivāpe.
Tatra kho bhagavā...pe...
etadavoca -
‘‘Appamidaṃ, bhikkhave, manussānaṃ āyu. Gamanīyo samparāyo, kattabbaṃ kusalaṃ, caritabbaṃ brahmacariyaṃ. Natthi jātassa amaraṇaṃ. Yo, bhikkhave, ciraṃ jīvati, so vassasataṃ appaṃ vā bhiyyo’’ti.
Atha kho māro pāpimā yena bhagavā tenupasaṅkami; upasaṅkamitvā bhagavantaṃ gāthāya ajjhabhāsi -
‘‘Nāccayanti ahorattā, jīvitaṃ nūparujjhati;
Āyu anupariyāyati, maccānaṃ nemīva rathakubbara’’nti.
‘‘Accayanti ahorattā, jīvitaṃ uparujjhati;
Āyu khīyati maccānaṃ, kunnadīnaṃva odaka’’nti.
Atha kho māro pāpimā ‘‘jānāti maṃ bhagavā, jānāti maṃ sugato’’ti dukkhī dummano tatthevantaradhāyīti.
