Such people, having heard the Buddha's Name,
Will attain peace of heart and gain great benefit;
We ourselves will share in this virtue,
And take up the seats of blessedness in this land.

The Infinitely Enlightened One gives us the prediction of our Enlightenment:
"I made the Primal Vow in a former life,
Promising that all who hear my preaching of the Dharma
Would unfailingly come to be born in my land.

All the vows that I made will be fulfilled;
Those who wish to come here from various lands
Will all reach my land and
Attain the Stage of Non-retrogression after one lifetime."

Quickly transcend this world and
Reach the Land of Peace and Bliss.
After reaching the Land of Infinite Light,
One can make offerings to innumerable Buddhas.

Those who lack the merit
Are unable to hear even the name of this sutra;
Only those who have strictly observed the precepts
Can now hear the teaching of this Dharma.

Evil, arrogant, corrupt and indolent people
Cannot readily accept this teaching.
But those who have met Buddhas in their past lives
Rejoice to hear the teaching of the World-Honored One.

To obtain human life is extremely difficult;
Even if a Buddha dwells in the world, it is difficult to meet him;
It is hard to attain wisdom of faith;
Once you have heard the Dharma, strive to reach its heart.

If you have heard the Dharma and do not forget it
But adore and revere it with great joy,
You are my good friend. For this reason,
You should awaken aspiration for Enlightenment.

Even if the whole world is on fire,
Be sure to pass through it to hear the Dharma;
Then you will surely become a World-Honored One
And everywhere deliver beings from birth, old age and death.
