されば我が弟子等心みに法華経のごとく身命もおしまず修行して此の度仏法を心みよ。
Therefore, I say to you, my disciples, try practicing as the Lotus Sutra teaches, exerting yourselves without begrudging your lives! Test the truth of Buddhism now!
霊山浄土の教主釈尊・宝浄世界の多宝仏・十方分身の諸仏・地涌千界の菩薩等・梵釈・日月・四天等・冥に加し顕に助け給はずば一時一日も安穏なるべしや。
If Shakyamuni Buddha, the lord of teachings, of the pure land of Eagle Peak, Many Treasures Buddha of the World of Treasure Purity, the Buddhas of the ten directions who are Shakyamuni’s emanations, the bodhisattvas as numerous as the dust particles of a thousand worlds who sprang up out of the earth, Brahmā and Shakra, the gods of the sun and moon, and the four heavenly kings do not, conspicuously or inconspicuously, give me their protection and lend me aid, then they will never know a single day or a single hour of peace and safety !
