佛說五大施經
西天譯經三藏朝奉大夫試光祿卿傳法大師賜紫沙門臣施護等奉 詔譯
佛、世尊一時在舍衛國祇樹給孤獨園，與苾芻眾俱。
佛告諸苾芻言：「有五種大施，今為汝說。何等為五？所謂：一、不殺生，是為大施；二、不偷盜；三、不邪染；四、不妄語；五、不飲酒。是為大施。
「以何義故，持不殺行而名大施？謂不殺故，能與無量有情施其無畏。以無畏故，無怨、無憎、無害。由彼無量有情得無畏已，無怨憎害已，乃于天上、人間得安隱樂。是故不殺名為大施。不偷盜、不邪染、不妄語、不飲酒，亦復如是。」

佛，世尊，一時住在舍衛國（Śrāvastī）的祇樹給孤獨園（Jetavana Anāthapiṇḍika-ārāma），與眾比丘（bhikṣu）在一起。
佛告訴各位比丘說：『有五種大的佈施，現在為你們解說。哪五種呢？就是：第一，不殺生，這是大的佈施；第二，不偷盜；第三，不邪淫；第四，不妄語；第五，不飲酒。這就是五種大的佈施。』
『因為什麼緣故，持守不殺生的行為被稱為大的佈施呢？因為不殺生，能夠給予無量的有情眾生無畏的佈施。因為沒有畏懼，就沒有怨恨、沒有憎恨、沒有傷害。由於那些無量的有情眾生得到無畏之後，沒有怨恨憎恨傷害之後，就能在天上、人間得到安穩快樂。所以不殺生稱為大的佈施。不偷盜、不邪淫、不妄語、不飲酒，也是這樣。』

【English Translation】 English version The Buddha Speaks of the Five Great Offerings Sutra
Translated by Śīlahhrakṣita, Tripitaka Master, Chao Feng Da Fu Shi Guanglu Qing Chuanfa Da Shi, Shramana bestowed with the Purple Robe, under Imperial Decree.
The Buddha, the World-Honored One, once resided in the Jeta Grove, Anathapindika's Park in Shravasti (Śrāvastī), together with a gathering of bhikshus (bhikṣu).
The Buddha told the bhikshus: 'There are five great offerings, which I will now explain to you. What are the five? They are: first, abstaining from killing, this is a great offering; second, abstaining from stealing; third, abstaining from sexual misconduct; fourth, abstaining from false speech; fifth, abstaining from drinking alcohol. These are the five great offerings.'
'For what reason is the practice of abstaining from killing called a great offering? Because by not killing, one can give limitless sentient beings the offering of fearlessness. Because of fearlessness, there is no resentment, no hatred, no harm. Because those limitless sentient beings have obtained fearlessness, and are without resentment, hatred, and harm, they can attain peaceful and happy bliss in the heavens and among humans. Therefore, abstaining from killing is called a great offering. Abstaining from stealing, abstaining from sexual misconduct, abstaining from false speech, and abstaining from drinking alcohol are also the same.'
