如是我聞。一時薄伽梵（Bhagavan，世尊）。在王舍城（Rajagrha）竹林園（Venuvana）所。離這裡不遠，有一位比丘住在溫泉旁邊。當時，有一天人，容貌端正莊嚴，光明非常殊勝美妙，在初夜過後，來到了比丘的住所。那位天人的威光，週身環繞，非常顯赫，照亮了整個溫泉。他合掌禮敬，在一旁坐下，對比丘說：『大德，您曾經聽聞過《善夜經》嗎？』比丘回答說：『我未曾聽聞過這樣的經典。』天人又問：『您知道嗎？』天人說：『我也不知道。』比丘說：『誰知道呢？』天人說：『無上的慈父（指佛陀）在竹林園。您可以前去請問，按照佛所說的去做。』說完這些話，忽然就不見了。
當時，那位比丘到了天亮之後，前往世尊的住所，頂禮世尊的雙足，在一旁站立，稟告說：『世尊，昨夜有一個天人在初夜過後，來到我的住所，光明照耀，遍及整個溫泉。他問我說：『您曾經聽聞過《善夜經》嗎？』我說未曾聽聞。我問那位天人：『您知道嗎？』他回答說不知道。我又問：『誰知道呢？』他說：『無上的慈父在竹林園，您可以前去請問，按照佛所說的去做。』說完這些話，忽然就不見了。我因為這件事，所以來到這裡請問世尊。』佛告訴比丘說：『你認識那位天人嗎？』回答說不認識。『你現在應當知道，他是三十三天（Trayastrimsa）中勝妙的天子，威德大將，名叫栴檀（Candana）。爲了利益眾生，來覺悟你，問這部經的名字。』當時，那位比丘又對佛說：『世尊，我現在希望聽聞《善夜經》，唯愿世尊慈悲為我解說。』這時，世尊告訴比丘說：『這部《善夜經》具有很大的功德，如果有人聽聞，能夠斷除煩惱，迅速證得菩提（Bodhi，覺悟）。你應該仔細聽。』 English version

The Sutra of Good Night Spoken by the Buddha, one volume
Translated by the Tang Dynasty Tripiṭaka Master Yijing under Imperial Decree
Thus have I heard. At one time, the Bhagavan (Bhagavan, World Honored One) was in the Bamboo Grove (Venuvana) of Rajagrha (Rajagrha). Not far from there, there was a Bhikshu (Bhikshu, monk) dwelling near a hot spring. At that time, a Deva (Deva, deity) with a dignified and beautiful appearance and extraordinary radiance, after the first watch of the night, came to the Bhikshu's dwelling. The Deva's majestic light surrounded and illuminated the entire hot spring. He joined his palms in reverence, sat to one side, and said to the Bhikshu, 'Venerable One, have you ever heard of the Sutra of Good Night?' The Bhikshu replied, 'I have never heard of such a Sutra.' The Deva then asked, 'Do you know of it?' The Deva said, 'I also do not know.' The Bhikshu said, 'Who would know?' The Deva said, 'The Supreme Compassionate Father (referring to the Buddha) is in the Bamboo Grove. You may go and inquire of him, and act according to what the Buddha says.' Having spoken these words, he suddenly disappeared.
At that time, after dawn, the Bhikshu went to the World Honored One's dwelling, prostrated at the World Honored One's feet, stood to one side, and reported, 'World Honored One, last night a Deva came to my dwelling after the first watch of the night, his light illuminating the entire hot spring. He asked me, 'Have you ever heard of the Sutra of Good Night?' I said I had not heard of it. I asked the Deva, 'Do you know of it?' He replied that he did not know. I then asked, 'Who would know?' He said, 'The Supreme Compassionate Father is in the Bamboo Grove; you may go and inquire of him, and act according to what the Buddha says.' Having spoken these words, he suddenly disappeared. Because of this matter, I have come here to inquire of the World Honored One.' The Buddha told the Bhikshu, 'Do you recognize that Deva?' He replied that he did not. 'You should know that he is a magnificent Deva of the Trayastrimsa (Trayastrimsa) Heaven, a great general of majestic virtue, named Candana (Candana). He came to awaken you and ask about the name of this Sutra for the benefit of all beings.' At that time, the Bhikshu again said to the Buddha, 'World Honored One, I now wish to hear the Sutra of Good Night; may the World Honored One have compassion and explain it for me.' Thereupon, the World Honored One told the Bhikshu, 'This Sutra of Good Night possesses great merit. If anyone hears it, they can sever afflictions and quickly attain Bodhi (Bodhi, enlightenment). You should listen carefully.'

善極作意。吾當為說。過去諸法不應追念。未來諸法亦不希求。現在諸法勿生染著。如是行者名真解脫。爾時世尊即說頌曰。
過去不應念 未來不希求 于現在時中 皆如法觀察 妄想心難遣 智人應善觀 宜可速勤修 焉知至明日 由彼死王眾 與汝鎮相隨 是故我牟尼 善夜經今說 常愿諸有情 離苦獲安樂 不造諸惡業 恒修于眾善
爾時世尊為欲利益一切眾生。令于長夜得安隱樂離諸障惱。于生生處增長善根。常遇三寶不墮惡趣。復更說此陀羅尼曰。

若有苾芻苾芻尼鄔波索迦鄔波斯迦及余善男子善女人等。於此善夜經中。若一伽他若一句咒。讀誦受持供養尊重。明解其義為他演說。當知是人於一切時無諸災厄。亦無抂橫及諸衰惱。能知過去七生之事。亦不忘失大菩提心。決定
【現代漢語翻譯】 現代漢語譯本： 善極作意（專注）：我應當為你們解說。過去的種種法不應該追憶，未來的種種法也不應該希求，現在的種種法不要產生染著。像這樣修行的人，才叫做真正解脫。 這時，世尊就說了這首偈頌： 『過去不應念，未來不希求，于現在時中，皆如法觀察，妄想心難遣，智人應善觀，宜可速勤修，焉知至明日，由彼死王眾，與汝鎮相隨，是故我牟尼（釋迦牟尼佛），善夜經今說，常愿諸有情（眾生），離苦獲安樂，不造諸惡業，恒修于眾善。』 這時，世尊爲了利益一切眾生，使他們在漫長的黑夜裡得到安穩快樂，遠離各種障礙煩惱，在生生世世增長善根，常常遇到三寶（佛、法、僧），不墮落到惡道中，又說了這個陀羅尼（總持）咒語： 『怛侄他（即說咒曰），毗尼婆（引）喇你，跋柁摩單滯，摩膩你㨖㨖㨖㨖，瞿里健陀里，旃茶里摩登祇（上），薩啰爛帝，莫呼剌膩攝缽利，斫羯啰婆（引）枳，攝伐里莫訶攝伐里，步精揭（巨列）你，你弭你名揭你，訖栗多（引）你，莎（引）訶（引）僧拽體（天移）曇（去），頞[口束頁]伽帝，捺啰伽帝，謗蘇迦波（引）𧜟，劫布得（都洛），迦波（引）𧜟，答布檀泥（去）莎訶』 如果有比丘（出家男眾），比丘尼（出家女眾），鄔波索迦（在家男眾），鄔波斯迦（在家女眾），以及其他善男子、善女人等，對於這部《善夜經》中的，哪怕是一句偈頌，一句咒語，能夠讀誦、受持、供養、尊重，明白其中的含義，並且為他人演說，應當知道這個人，在任何時候都沒有各種災禍，也沒有冤枉橫禍以及各種衰敗煩惱，能夠知道過去七世的事情，也不會忘記廣大的菩提心（覺悟之心），一定可以...
【English Translation】 English version: Skillful and excellent mindfulness: I shall explain it to you. One should not dwell on things of the past, nor should one crave things of the future. Do not become attached to things of the present. One who practices in this way is called truly liberated. Then, the World Honored One spoke this verse: 'Do not dwell on the past, do not crave the future, in the present moment, observe all things according to the Dharma. It is difficult to dispel delusional thoughts, the wise should observe carefully, one should quickly and diligently cultivate, for who knows what tomorrow will bring, since the hosts of the King of Death are constantly following you. Therefore, I, the Muni (Shakyamuni Buddha), now speak the Good Night Sutra, may all sentient beings always be free from suffering and attain peace and happiness, not create any evil deeds, and constantly cultivate all good deeds.' Then, the World Honored One, wishing to benefit all sentient beings, so that they may obtain peace and happiness in the long night, be free from all obstacles and afflictions, increase their roots of goodness in every birth, always encounter the Three Jewels (Buddha, Dharma, Sangha), and not fall into evil realms, again spoke this Dharani (mantra): 'Tadyatha, vini varani, bhadra matamte, mani ni ci ci ci ci, gauri gandhari, candali matangi, sara rante, mohu ratani sabari, cakra vaki, sabari maha sabari, bhujingi, nimi ni mingi, kritani, svaha, samyeti tam, arghate, nadra ghate, bamsuka vapi, kabu te, kapi, tapu tani svaha.' If there are Bhikshus (ordained monks), Bhikshunis (ordained nuns), Upasakas (lay male practitioners), Upasikas (lay female practitioners), and other good men and good women, who, within this Good Night Sutra, whether it be a single verse or a single mantra, can recite, uphold, make offerings to, and respect it, understand its meaning, and explain it to others, know that this person will be free from all calamities at all times, and will also be free from wrongful misfortunes and all kinds of decline and afflictions, will be able to know the events of the past seven lives, and will also not forget the great Bodhicitta (mind of enlightenment), and will certainly...

爾時世尊說是經已。時彼苾芻及諸大眾。人天八部諸鬼神
【現代漢語翻譯】 現代漢語譯本：能夠通向涅槃（Nirvana，佛教術語，指解脫生死輪迴的境界）的正道。如果有善男子、善女人，受持讀誦這部《善夜經》，在未來世所生的地方，必定能夠獲得宿住智（指知曉前世的能力），常常受到尊貴的待遇，安穩快樂。佛陀又說了偈頌： 這個人任何時候，都不會有冤枉橫禍的事情發生，由於造作順應時節的善業，永遠脫離非時而死的厄運。他會擁護所有的眾生，使他們遠離疾病、憂愁和恐怖，消除不祥的預兆和惡夢，即使在危險的道路上也能常常安穩無恙。如果男子、女人，佩戴、受持這部經，會具備美好的相貌，受人敬重，所有的願望都能圓滿實現。如果身、語、意，有任何不善的行為，由於這部經的威力，最終不會有惡報。如果遇到水災、火災、官司、盜賊、雷電、毒害等災難，或者仇家爭鬥的時候，唸誦這部經都能得到解脫。 佛陀又說了一個明咒（Dharani，總持的意思，指能總攝憶持一切法義的咒語），如果能夠讀誦這個明咒，在任何時候，都能增長善根，滅除各種罪惡。 即說咒曰： 怛侄他（Tadyatha） 你弭尼民達哩（Nimini mindari） 窒哩盧迦（引）盧枳你（Triloka-lokini，三界之眼） 窒哩輸攞陀唎你（Trisula-dharini，持有三叉戟者） 惡矩比（Akubi） 侄哩底奴麗（Dhriti-nule） 矩都軍底（Kutu-kunti） 矩都屈此（Kutu-kutsi） 雞㗚底矩比你（Kirti-kubini） 擁護擁護我某甲於一切恐怖處，於一切疾病苦痛處，於一切憂愁相惱處，於一切毒蟲毒藥處，於一切鬼魅厭禱處，於一切王賊水火處，於一切猛獸驚怖處，於一切謗讟言訟處，於一切怨家斗諍處，於一切身意惡業處，所有語業四過處，於一切厄難危亡處，並執金剛神（Vajrapani，佛教護法神），常衛護我某甲並諸眷屬莎（引）訶（引）。 佛陀又說咒曰： 恒侄他（Tadyatha） 呬里呬里（Hili hili） 弭里弭里（Mili mili） 畢舍脂缽拏（Pisachi-pana） 攝伐里止里莎訶（Shavari-chili svaha）。 這時，世尊說完這部經。當時在場的比丘（Bhiksu，佛教出家男眾）、以及諸位大眾，包括人、天、八部（天龍八部，佛教中的護法神）和各種鬼神。
【English Translation】 English version: This is the right path that leads to Nirvana (the state of liberation from the cycle of birth and death). If there are good men or good women who receive, uphold, read, and recite this 'Good Night Sutra', they will surely attain the wisdom of remembering past lives in their future rebirths. They will always be honored, secure, and happy. The Buddha further spoke in verse: This person will never encounter unjust or accidental misfortunes at any time. Because they cultivate virtuous deeds in accordance with the times, they will forever be free from untimely death. They will protect all sentient beings, freeing them from illness, sorrow, and fear. They will dispel inauspicious omens and bad dreams, and they will always be safe and secure even on dangerous paths. If men or women wear and uphold this sutra, they will possess beautiful features, be respected by others, and all their wishes will be fulfilled. If there are any unwholesome actions of body, speech, or mind, due to the power of this sutra, there will ultimately be no evil consequences. If they encounter disasters such as floods, fires, lawsuits, thieves, lightning, poison, or enemies in battle, they will be liberated by reciting this sutra. The Buddha also spoke a bright Dharani (a mantra that encapsulates and retains all the meanings of the Dharma). If one can recite this Dharani, at all times, one can increase good roots and eliminate all evils. Then He spoke the Dharani: Tadyatha Nimini mindari Triloka-lokini (Eye of the Three Realms) Trisula-dharini (Holder of the Trident) Akubi Dhriti-nule Kutu-kunti Kutu-kutsi Kirti-kubini Protect, protect me, so-and-so, from all places of terror, from all places of sickness and suffering, from all places of sorrow and distress, from all places of poisonous insects and poisonous drugs, from all places of demonic enchantments and curses, from all places of kings, thieves, water, and fire, from all places of frightening wild beasts, from all places of slander and litigation, from all places of enmity and strife, from all places of evil deeds of body and mind, from all places of the four transgressions of speech, from all places of calamity and danger, and may Vajrapani (a Buddhist Dharma protector), always protect me, so-and-so, and all my family. Svaha. The Buddha spoke another Dharani: Tadyatha Hili hili Mili mili Pisachi-pana Shavari-chili svaha. At that time, the World Honored One finished speaking this sutra. The Bhikshus (Buddhist monks) present, as well as the great assembly, including humans, devas, the Eight Classes of beings (Nagas and other protective deities), and various ghosts and spirits.
等皆大歡喜信受奉行。
