### （三〇）劫賊惡奴緣

> Chapter 30: The Wicked Servant Robber

佛在舍衛國祇樹給孤獨園。時彼城中，有一愚人，名曰惡奴，心常好樂處處藏竄劫奪人物，用自存活。時有比丘，在於塚間，坐禪行道，食時欲至，著衣持鉢入城乞食。時有長者，見彼比丘威儀庠序，心生信敬，即入舍內，取一張㲲，施彼比丘。還詣塚間，值彼賊人，見是比丘持㲲來至，便從索取，比丘即與。明日更來，復從索氈，次復持與。於第三日，比丘乞食，來至房內，復從索鉢。時彼比丘作是念言：「唯此一鉢，當用乞食救濟性命，彼賊復索無有厭足，今當設計授三自歸，治彼賊人令使不來。」作是念已，即語賊言：「待我須臾，止息小停，當與汝鉢。」賊聞是語，即便坐待。比丘取繩，張施羂索，安置向內，語彼賊言：「我今疲極不能故起，汝自申手，內著向中，我授汝鉢。」賊聞是語，尋即申手內著向中，比丘挽索羂其手得，繫著床脚。比丘出外，捉杖考打，唱言：「一下當歸依佛。」痛不可言，良久乃穌。種種呵責，復更考打，「第二下者當歸依法。」倍復疼痛，垂欲命終，良久乃穌。轉更呵責，「第三下者當歸依僧。」賊作念言：「今者考我，徹於心骨，痛不可言，若不伏首，授我四歸，必定交死。」作是念已，即便引伏。比丘解放，走詣佛所，高聲唱言：「今者世尊，實大慈悲，勅諸比丘，授我三歸，脫不得死，若受四歸，必死無疑，無所歸仰。」爾時世尊，知彼賊人心以調伏，即為說法，心開意解，得須陀洹果，求索出家。佛即告言：「善來比丘！」鬚髮自落，法服著身，便成沙門，精懃修習，得阿羅漢果，三明六通，具八解脫，諸天世人，所見敬仰。

> The Buddha was staying at the Jeta Grove in Śrāvastī, in Anāthapiṇḍada's park. At that time, there lived in the city a foolish man named Evil Slave, whose heart delighted in lurking about and robbing people of their possessions to sustain himself. Now there was a monk who practiced meditation in a charnel ground. When mealtime approached, he would put on his robes, take up his bowl, and enter the city to beg for food. A certain elder, seeing the monk's dignified and composed demeanor, was filled with faith and respect. He went into his home, took out a piece of cloth, and offered it to the monk. The monk returned to the charnel ground, where he encountered the thief. Seeing the monk carrying the cloth, the thief demanded it, and the monk gave it to him. The next day, the thief came again and demanded the monk's felt blanket, which the monk also handed over. On the third day, after the monk had returned from begging and entered his dwelling, the thief came once more and demanded his bowl. The monk thought to himself: "This single bowl is what I use for begging to sustain my life, yet this thief keeps asking without any sense of satisfaction. I should devise a plan to teach him the Three Refuges and put a stop to his visits." With this in mind, he said to the thief, "Wait a moment. Let me rest briefly, and then I shall give you the bowl." Hearing this, the thief sat down to wait. The monk took a rope and set a snare, positioning it inside a pit. He said to the thief, "I am exhausted and cannot rise. Reach your hand into this pit, and I will hand you the bowl." The thief extended his hand into the pit, and the monk pulled the snare, catching the thief's hand tight, and tied it to the leg of his bed. Then the monk went outside, picked up a staff, and began to beat him, declaring, "With this first strike, take refuge in the Buddha." The pain was unbearable, and it was a long while before the thief regained consciousness. The monk scolded him in various ways, then beat him again, saying, "With this second strike, take refuge in the Dharma." The pain was even greater, and the thief hovered near death before slowly coming to. The monk continued his reproaches, then struck again, saying, "With this third strike, take refuge in the Sangha." The thief thought to himself, "This beating has reached the marrow of my bones, and the pain is beyond words. If I do not surrender now, and he gives me a Fourth Refuge, I will certainly die." With this thought, he yielded and submitted. The monk released him, and the thief went straight to the Buddha. He cried out in a loud voice, "O World-Honored One, You are truly greatly compassionate! You have instructed the monks to teach me the Three Refuges, which saved me from death. If I had received a Fourth Refuge, I would certainly have died without any hope of rescue." At that time, the World-Honored One knew that the thief's mind had been tamed and subdued. He then taught him the Dharma. The thief's mind opened and he understood, attaining the fruit of Stream-Entry. He then requested to renounce the world and ordain. The Buddha said, "Welcome, monk!" Instantly, his hair and beard fell away, and monastic robes appeared on his body. Thus he became a śramaṇa. With diligent practice, he attained the fruit of Arhatship—possessing the threefold knowledge, the six supernormal powers, and the eight liberations—and was revered and honored by gods and humans alike.

爾時諸比丘聞佛所說，歡喜奉行。

> At that time, all the monks heard what the Buddha had said, rejoiced and faithfully put it into practice.
