Obermiller (1931) [6]
- (The Buddha) is inconceivable, since he is unutterable,
- He is unutterable, being the Absolute Truth,
- He is the Absolute Truth, being inaccessible to thought-construction,
- And is inaccessible to thought-construction, since
- He cannot be cognized through inference.
Takasaki (1966) [7]
- It is 'inconceivable' since it is unutterable;
- It is 'unutterable' since it is the Highest Truth;
- It is 'the Highest Truth', since it cannot be constructed by thought,
- It is 'beyond investigation' as it is incomparable;
Fuchs (2000) [8]
- It is inconceivable since it cannot be verbally expressed.
- It is inexpressible since it consists of the absolute [truth].
- It is absolute since it cannot be [intellectually] scrutinized.
- It is inscrutable since it cannot be inferentially deduced.

- Takasaki remarks that vyanumeya (DP dpag bya min) here and in the next line should read vyupameya since the latter fits better with its referent upamanivṛttitaḥ in II.69. VT (fol. 14v7) confirms the reading (vi)anumeya while glossing it as (vy)upamā.
- This refers to bodhisattvas on the tenth bhūmi who receive an empowerment through light rays from all buddhas.
