Paññāparihīnasutta

Vuttañhetaṁ bhagavatā vuttamarahatāti me sutaṁ:
vuttañhetaṁ → (sya-all, pts) | vuttañhetaṁ → vuttaṁ hetaṁ (bjt) | vuttamarahatāti → vuttam-arahatā ti (pts)
This was said by the Blessed One, said by the Arahant, so I have heard:

“Te, bhikkhave, sattā suparihīnā ye ariyāya paññāya parihīnā.
Te → te ca kho (?)
“Monks, those beings are truly deprived who are deprived of noble discernment.
Te diṭṭheva dhamme dukkhaṁ viharanti savighātaṁ saupāyāsaṁ sapariḷāhaṁ;
diṭṭheva → diṭṭhe ceva (sya-all, pts) | viharanti → B. adds ca. (pts note)
They live in stress in the present life–troubled, distressed, & feverish–
kāyassa bhedā paraṁ maraṇā duggati pāṭikaṅkhā.
duggati → -tiṁ, B.; suggati, D. E. (pts note) | paraṁ maraṇā → parammaraṇā (bjt, th) | paraṁ maraṇā → param-maraṇā (pts)
and at the break-up of the body, after death, a bad destination can be expected.
Te, bhikkhave, sattā aparihīnā ye ariyāya paññāya aparihīnā.
Te → te ca kho (cck: ?) | aparihīnā → parihinā, B. (pts note)
“Those beings are not deprived who are not deprived of noble discernment.
Te diṭṭheva dhamme sukhaṁ viharanti avighātaṁ anupāyāsaṁ apariḷāhaṁ;
diṭṭheva → diṭṭhe ceva (sya-all, pts) | ceva → diṭṭheva, M.; cp. sutt. 29. (pts note)
They live in ease in the present life–untroubled, undistressed, & not feverish–
kāyassa bhedā paraṁ maraṇā sugati pāṭikaṅkhā”ti.
sugati → suggatiṁ, B. (pts note) | paraṁ maraṇā → parammaraṇā (bjt, th) | paraṁ maraṇā → param-maraṇā (pts) | pāṭikaṅkhāti → pāṭikaṅkhā ti (pts)
and at the break-up of the body, after death, a good destination can be expected.

Etamatthaṁ bhagavā avoca.
etamatthaṁ → etam-atthaṁ (pts)
Tatthetaṁ iti vuccati:
vuccati → kāyassa . . . vuccati om. D. E. (pts note)

“Paññāya parihānena, passa lokaṁ sadevakaṁ;
parihānena → parihīnena, C.; -hinena, P. Pa. (pts note)
look at the world –including its heavenly beings: deprived of discernment,
Niviṭṭhaṁ nāmarūpasmiṁ, idaṁ saccanti maññati.
saccan-ti → vuccanti, C. (pts note)
making an abode in name-&-form, it conceives that ‘This is the truth.’

Paññā hi seṭṭhā lokasmiṁ, yāyaṁ nibbedhagāminī;
seṭṭhā → seṭṭha, C.; seṭṭhaṁ, B. (pts note) nibbedhagāminī → nibbānagāminī (ne4:302 [Vibhaṅga/ Otaraṇahāravibhaṅga]) | nibbedhagāminī → -ī, D. E. M.; -i, B. C. P. Pa. (pts note)
The best discernment in the world is what leads to penetration,
Yāya sammā pajānāti, jātibhavaparikkhayaṁ.
yāya → sā ca (sya-all); yā ca (pts) | sammā → I follow M. and A.; M. has yāya sammā; A. has yā ca and sammā aviparītaṁ jānāti; C. has yā ca yasmā; the other MSS. have sā ca yasmā. (pts note)
for it rightly discerns the total ending of birth & becoming.

Tesaṁ devā manussā ca, sambuddhānaṁ satīmataṁ;
devā → deva, D. E. Pa. (pts note) | ca → vā, B.; vi, P.; manussānañca, Pa. (pts note) satīmataṁ → sati-, B. P. Pa. (pts note)
Human & heavenly beings hold them dear: those who are self-awakened, mindful, bearing their last bodies
Pihayanti hāsapaññānaṁ, sarīrantimadhārinan”ti.
hāsapaññānaṁ → sapaññānaṁ (pts-vp-pli1); hāsupaññānaṁ (aṭṭha.) | hāsapaññānaṁ → hāsupaññānaṁ (cck: sī. aṭṭha.) | sapaññānaṁ → pihayanti supaññānaṁ, D. E.; all other MSS., including A, have pihanti hāsapaññānaṁ; Aexplains . . . nibbānasacchikiriyā hāsavedatuṭṭhipāmojjabahuḷatāya hāsapaññānaṁ; pihantihā seems to be an old corruption of pihayanti. (pts note) sarīrantimadhārinan-ti → sariyantimasariranti, B.; A. has antimasarīradhārinaṁ. (pts note)
with joyful discernment.

Ayampi attho vutto bhagavatā, iti me sutanti.
ayampi → ayam-pi (pts) | sutanti → sutan-ti duk (pts)

Catutthaṁ.
catutthaṁ → catutthaṁ vuttaṁ hetaṁ (sya-all)
