世尊。未来世中。及现在众生。若能于所住处方面。作如是供养。得如是利益。复白佛言。世尊。未来世中。若有善男子。善女人。于所住处。有此经典。及菩萨像。是人更能转读经典。供养菩萨。我常日夜。以本神力。卫护是人。乃至水火盗贼。大横小横。一切恶事。悉皆消灭。
Sutra:
“World Honored One, beings of the present and future who make offerings in their homes in the prescribed manner will attain benefits like those.”
He further said to the Buddha, “World Honored One, good men or women in the future may keep this sutra and an image of the Bodhisattva where they live. Furthermore, they may recite the sutra and make offerings to the Bodhisattva. I shall constantly use my own spiritual powers day and night to guard and protect those who do that from disasters, including floods, fire, robbery and theft, major calamities, and minor accidents. All evil deeds shall disappear.”

佛告坚牢地神。汝大神力。诸神少及。何以故。阎浮土地。悉蒙汝护。乃至草木沙石。稻麻竹苇。谷米宝贝。从地而有。皆因汝力。又常称扬地藏菩萨利益之事。汝之功德。及以神通。百千倍于常分地神。若未来世中。有善男子善女人。供养菩萨。及转读是经。但依地藏本愿经一事修行者。汝以本神力而拥护之。勿令一切灾害。及不如意事。辄闻于耳。何况令受。非但汝独护是人故。亦有释梵眷属。诸天眷属。拥护是人。何故得如是圣贤拥护。皆由瞻礼地藏形像。及转读是本愿经故。自然毕竟出离苦海。证涅槃乐。以是之故。得大拥护。
Sutra :
The Buddha told the Earth Spirit Firm and Stable, “There are few spirits who can match your great spiritual power. Why do I say that? All the lands in Jambudvipa receive your protection. All the grasses, woods, sands, stones, paddy fields, hemp, bamboo, reeds, grains, rice, and gems come forth from the earth because of your power. Moreover, your constant praising of the beneficial deeds of Earth Store Bodhisattva makes your meritorious virtue and spiritual penetrations hundreds of thousands of times greater than those of ordinary earth spirits.
“If good men or women in the future make offerings to this Bodhisattva, or recite The Sutra of the Past Vows of Earth Store Bodhisattva and rely upon even a single aspect of it in their cultivation, you should use your own spiritual powers to protect them. Do not allow any disasters or unwelcome events even to be heard, much less undergone, by them. Not only will those people be protected by you, but they will also be protected by the followers of Shakra, Brahma, and other gods. Why will they receive protection from sages and worthies such as those? It will be due to their having beheld and worshipped an image of Earth Store Bodhisattva and from having recited this sutra of his past vows. Such people will quite naturally be able to leave the sea of suffering and will ultimately be certified to the bliss of Nirvana. For those reasons, they will receive great protection.”
