第五節 正命 sammāājīva
Katamo ca, bhikkhave, sammāājīvo?
又,比丘們!什麼是『正當活命』呢?
And what is right livelihood?
Idha, bhikkhave, ariyasāvako micchāājīvaṃ pahāya sammāājīvena jīvitaṃ kappeti,
在這裡,比丘們!聖弟子『不以錯誤方式營取生活,而以正確方式經營生活。』
There is the case where a disciple of the noble ones, having abandoned dishonest livelihood, keeps his life going with right livelihood:
ayaṃ vuccati, bhikkhave, sammāājīvo.
比丘們!這就叫『正當活命』。
This is called right livelihood.
