Jūn Zhōng Yŏu Dù Shì Sī Mǎ Dà Shén Zhōng Yŏu Háo Shēng Hán Jūn Zhàng Rén Zhōng
God of the Center, who deals with the measuring out of the length of one's lifetime.
There the Minister of War (Si Ma) is a God,
the Diety (Da Shen) of the center exceeds the boundaries.
The Supreme Ruler is the Father-in-Law In the Center.

Nán Shàng Sī Mìng Sī Lù Yán Shòu Yì Suàn Dù È Zūn Shén Huí Hái Qǐ Sǐ
To the South, rising up is found the God of the Kitchen,
and the Director, the God of Fate (Si Ming) whose department
writes down in an index how to Protract One's Ages (Yan Shou),
and increase the benefits [above] the estimated limits of hardship and disaster.
These Venerable Divinities turn things around so that the bones of the body
rise up and [the whole] is brought back from the dead.

Wú Liáng Dù Rén Jīn Rì Jiào Lù Zhū Tiān Lín Xuān
Boundless Salvation (Wu Liang Du Ren) in these present times,
teaches the writings of the Heavens.

Dōng Fāng Wú Jí Fēi Tiān Chāo Xuán Shén Wáng Zhǎng Shēng Dà Shèng Wú Liáng Dù Rén
to the East, there is the Unbounded Pre-State of All Things (Dong Fang Wu Ji),
A flying Apsara (Fei Tian- a female divinity of the Heavens),
transcends the Darkness (Xuan) to the God-King of Longevity (Shen Wang Zhang Sheng)
and the Great Sage (Da Sheng) of Boundless Salvation (Wu Liang Du Ren).
