This was said by the Buddha, the Perfected One: that is what I heard.

Vuttañhetaṁ bhagavatā vuttamarahatāti me sutaṁ:

“There is, mendicants, freedom from rebirth, freedom from what has been produced, made, and conditioned. If there were no freedom from rebirth, freedom from what has been produced, made, and conditioned, then you would find no escape here from rebirth, from what has been produced, made, and conditioned. But since there is freedom from rebirth, freedom from what has been produced, made, and conditioned, an escape is found from rebirth, from what has been produced, made, and conditioned.” The Buddha spoke this matter. On this it is said:

“Atthi, bhikkhave, ajātaṁ abhūtaṁ akataṁ asaṅkhataṁ. No cetaṁ, bhikkhave, abhavissa ajātaṁ abhūtaṁ akataṁ asaṅkhataṁ, nayidha jātassa bhūtassa katassa saṅkhatassa nissaraṇaṁ paññāyetha. Yasmā ca kho, bhikkhave, atthi ajātaṁ abhūtaṁ akataṁ asaṅkhataṁ, tasmā jātassa bhūtassa katassa saṅkhatassa nissaraṇaṁ paññāyatī”ti. Etamatthaṁ bhagavā avoca. Tatthetaṁ iti vuccati:

“What’s reborn, produced, and arisen, made, conditioned, not lasting, wrapped in old age and death, frail, a nest of disease,

“Jātaṁ bhūtaṁ samuppannaṁ, kataṁ saṅkhatamaddhuvaṁ; Jarāmaraṇasaṅghāṭaṁ, roganīḷaṁ pabhaṅguraṁ.

whose inception is the leash to food: that’s not fit to delight in. The escape from that is peaceful, beyond the scope of logic, everlasting,

Āhāranettippabhavaṁ, nālaṁ tadabhinandituṁ; Tassa nissaraṇaṁ santaṁ, atakkāvacaraṁ dhuvaṁ.

where nothing is reborn or arisen, the sorrowless, stainless state, the cessation of all painful things, the blissful stilling of conditions.”

Ajātaṁ asamuppannaṁ, asokaṁ virajaṁ padaṁ; Nirodho dukkhadhammānaṁ, saṅkhārūpasamo sukho”ti.

This too is a matter that was spoken by the Blessed One: that is what I heard.

Ayampi attho vutto bhagavatā, iti me sutanti. Chaṭṭhaṁ.
