prajvalitāt vajrāt iva iyam kva nu patiṣyati
23. Indeed, the fear arising from the army's advance oppresses the cowards. Where will this (army) strike, like a blazing thunderbolt?

sādhu ca kṣamāyāḥ ca akṣamāyāḥ prayojanam viddhi
29. Forgiveness (kṣamā) is indeed a good strategy (māyā); however, lack of forgiveness (akṣamā) is not always appropriate. O Pārtha, understand the purpose of both forgiveness and lack of forgiveness.

31. But Śambara believes that forbearance (kṣamā) is proper *after* one has tormented [others]. However, [consider that] wood which has not been scorched returns to its original nature (prakṛti) again.
नैतत्प्रशंसन्त्याचार्या न च साधु निदर्शनम् ।

32. Teachers do not praise this, nor is it a good example. [Subjects/enemies] should be controlled without causing them suffering or destruction, as one would control one's own sons.
द्वेष्यो भवति भूतानामुग्रो राजा युधिष्ठिर ।
मृदुमप्यवमन्यन्ते तस्मादुभयभाग्भवेत् ॥३३॥
33. dveṣyo bhavati bhūtānāmugro rājā yudhiṣṭhira ,

33. yudhiṣṭhira,

tasmāt ubhayabhāk bhavet.
33. O Yudhiṣṭhira, a harsh king becomes hateful to all beings. Yet, even a gentle one is disrespected. Therefore, one should adopt a twofold approach, embodying both qualities.
प्रहरिष्यन्प्रियं ब्रूयात्प्रहरन्नपि भारत ।
प्रहृत्य च कृपायेत शोचन्निव रुदन्निव ॥३४॥
34. prahariṣyanpriyaṁ brūyātpraharannapi bhārata ,

34. bhārata prahariṣyan priyam brūyāt api praharan
ca prahatya śocan iva rudan iva kṛpāyeta
34. O Bharata, one who intends to strike should speak kindly. Even while in the act of striking, and after striking, one should show compassion, as if lamenting and weeping.
न मे प्रियं यत्स हतः संप्राहैवं पुरो वचः ।
न चकर्थ च मे वाक्यमुच्यमानः पुनः पुनः ॥३५॥
35. na me priyaṁ yatsa hataḥ saṁprāhaivaṁ puro vacaḥ ,

35. yat sa hataḥ na me priyam evam vacaḥ puras samprāha

35. I am not pleased that he has been killed, for he had spoken such words before. And you did not follow my instruction, though it was given to you repeatedly.
अहो जीवितमाकाङ्क्षे नेदृशो वधमर्हति ।
सुदुर्लभाः सुपुरुषाः संग्रामेष्वपलायिनः ॥३६॥
36. aho jīvitamākāṅkṣe nedṛśo vadhamarhati ,

36. aho jīvitam ākāṅkṣe īdṛśaḥ vadham na arhati hi
saṅgrāmeṣu apalāyinaḥ supuruṣāḥ sudurlabhāḥ
36. Alas, I wish for his life (jīvita)! Such a one does not deserve death. For truly excellent men (puruṣa) who do not flee in battles are very rare.
कृतं ममाप्रियं तेन येनायं निहतो मृधे ।
इति वाचा वदन्हन्तॄन्पूजयेत रहोगतः ॥३७॥
37. kṛtaṁ mamāpriyaṁ tena yenāyaṁ nihato mṛdhe ,

37. kṛtam mama apriyam tena yena ayam nihataḥ
mṛdhe iti vācā vadan hantṝn pūjayeta rahogataḥ
37. yena ayam mṛdhe nihataḥ tena mama apriyam
kṛtam iti vācā vadan rahogataḥ hantṝn pūjayeta
37. He by whom this one was killed in battle has caused me displeasure. Having uttered these words, one should, while in seclusion, honor the slayers.
हन्तॄणां चाहतानां च यत्कुर्युरपराधिनः ।
क्रोशेद्बाहुं प्रगृह्यापि चिकीर्षञ्जनसंग्रहम् ॥३८॥
38. hantṝṇāṁ cāhatānāṁ ca yatkuryuraparādhinaḥ ,

38. hantṝṇām ca āhatānām ca yat kuryuḥ aparādhinaḥ

38. aparādhinaḥ hantṝṇām ca āhatānām ca yat kuryuḥ,
(tatra) (nṛpaḥ) bāhum pragṛhya api krośet,
janasaṅgraham cikīrṣan
38. When offenders commit actions concerning those who have been killed or injured, one should cry out, even raising an arm, intending to gather the people's support.
एवं सर्वास्ववस्थासु सान्त्वपूर्वं समाचरन् ।
प्रियो भवति भूतानां धर्मज्ञो वीतभीर्नृपः ॥३९॥
39. evaṁ sarvāsvavasthāsu sāntvapūrvaṁ samācaran ,
priyo bhavati bhūtānāṁ dharmajño vītabhīrnṛpaḥ.
39. evam sarvāsu avasthāsu sāntvapūrvam samācaran
priyaḥ bhavati bhūtānām dharmajñaḥ vītabhīḥ nṛpaḥ
39. evam sarvāsu avasthāsu sāntvapūrvam samācaran
dharmajñaḥ vītabhīḥ nṛpaḥ bhūtānām priyaḥ bhavati
39. Thus, behaving conciliatorily in all situations, a king who understands (dharma) and is fearless becomes beloved by all beings.
विश्वासं चात्र गच्छन्ति सर्वभूतानि भारत ।
विश्वस्तः शक्यते भोक्तुं यथाकाममुपस्थितः ॥४०॥
40. viśvāsaṁ cātra gacchanti sarvabhūtāni bhārata ,
viśvastaḥ śakyate bhoktuṁ yathākāmamupasthitaḥ.
40. viśvāsam ca atra gacchanti sarvabhūtāni bhārata
viśvastaḥ śakyate bhoktum yathākāmam upasthitaḥ
40. bhārata ca atra sarvabhūtāni viśvāsam gacchanti;
viśvastaḥ upasthitaḥ (nṛpaḥ) yathākāmam bhoktum śakyate
40. And in this matter, O Bhārata, all beings develop trust. A king who is trusted can govern as he wishes, especially when he is present (and accessible).
तस्माद्विश्वासयेद्राजा सर्वभूतान्यमायया ।
सर्वतः परिरक्षेच्च यो महीं भोक्तुमिच्छति ॥४१॥
41. tasmādviśvāsayedrājā sarvabhūtānyamāyayā ,
sarvataḥ parirakṣecca yo mahīṁ bhoktumicchati.
41. tasmāt viśvāsayet rājā sarvabhūtāni amāyayā
sarvataḥ parirakṣet ca yaḥ mahīm bhoktum icchati
41. tasmāt rājā amāyayā sarvabhūtāni viśvāsayet; ca
yaḥ mahīm bhoktum icchati (saḥ) sarvataḥ parirakṣet
41. Therefore, a king should sincerely inspire trust in all beings. And whoever wishes to govern the earth must protect it thoroughly (from all sides).
