द्वाराणि सम्यक्प्रवदन्ति सन्तो बहुप्रकाराणि दुराचराणि ।

In plain words

The good describe these gates exactly as they are: there are many of them, of many kinds, and every one of them is hard to walk through.

Close to the Sanskrit

The gates the good declare rightly — many in kind, hard to practise.
