satyavādinaḥ nityārthinaḥ vidvāṃsaḥ tvāṃ na jahyuḥ
8. Learned individuals of unwavering conduct (abhinnavṛtta), of good character (sadvṛtta), who have fulfilled their vows (caritavrata), who are noble-minded (akṣudra), and who speak the truth (satyavādin) – they, being those who constantly seek their purpose (nityārthin) through you, would not abandon you.

9. ye anāryāḥ mandacetasaḥ (santaḥ) samayam na jānanti
tebhyaḥ pratijugupsethāḥ (tān) samayacyutān jānīyāḥ
9. You should guard yourself against those ignoble (anārya) and dull-witted (mandacetas) persons who do not understand the proper conventions (samaya). You should recognize them as those who have deviated from the established norms (samayacyuta).

tu yaḥ ekaḥ bahubhiḥ śreyān (syāt) kāmam tena gaṇam tyajet
10. If a choice must be made between two alternatives (anyataragraha), one should not desire to abandon the group (gaṇa) for the sake of a single individual. However, if one individual is decidedly superior to many, one should certainly abandon the group for that individual.

कीर्तिप्रधानो यश्च स्यात्समये यश्च तिष्ठति ॥११॥

ātmavān śūraḥ kṛtajñaḥ ca satyaḥ śreyasaḥ lakṣaṇam

अमित्राः संप्रसीदन्ति ततो मित्रीभवन्त्यपि ॥१५॥

saṃyatātmā kṛtaprajñaḥ bhūtikāmaḥ ca bhūmipaḥ
16. saṃyatātmā kṛtaprajñaḥ bhūtikāmaḥ ca bhūmipaḥ
ataḥ ūrdhvam amātyānām guṇāguṇān parīkṣeta
16. Thereafter, a self-controlled (ātman) and wise king, desirous of prosperity, should examine the merits and demerits of his ministers.

tathā eva anye api avaskṛtāḥ yodhāḥ kartavyāḥ
18. Warriors - traditional (srauvāḥ), as well as hereditary (maulāḥ), and also other acquired or auxiliary (avaskṛtāḥ) ones - should be employed by a person (puruṣa) desiring and wishing for prosperity.

ca pañcopadhāvyatītān rājārthakāriṇaḥ kuryāt
20. One should always appoint as royal officials those whose qualities have been thoroughly tested, who are mature in disposition, capable of bearing great responsibilities, and who have successfully passed the five traditional tests (pañcopadhā) of integrity.

21. paryāptavacanān vīrān pratipattiviśāradān kulīnān
satyasaṃpannān iṅgitajñānaniṣṭhurān [kuryāt]
21. (One should appoint those who are) eloquent in speech, courageous, skilled in discernment, of noble lineage, endowed with truthfulness, and resolute in understanding subtle gestures and intentions.

नित्यमर्थेषु सर्वेषु राजा कुर्वीत मन्त्रिणः ॥२२॥
22. deśakālavidhānajñānbhartṛkāryahitaiṣiṇaḥ ,

bhartṛkāryahitaiṣiṇaḥ mantriṇaḥ kurvīta
22. The king should always appoint as ministers those who understand the appropriate rules for specific places and times, and who are well-wishers of the master's work and interests in all matters.

अवश्यं जनयत्येव सर्वकर्मसु संशयान् ॥२३॥
23. hīnatejā hyasaṁhṛṣṭo naiva jātu vyavasyati ,
avaśyaṁ janayatyeva sarvakarmasu saṁśayān.
23. hīnatejāḥ hi asaṃhṛṣṭaḥ na eva jātu vyavasyati
avaśyam janayati eva sarvakarmasu saṃśayān
23. hi hīnatejāḥ asaṃhṛṣṭaḥ jātu na eva vyavasyati
avaśyam sarvakarmasu saṃśayān janayati eva
23. Indeed, a person who is low in spirit and disheartened will never resolve to undertake anything. Such a person inevitably generates doubts in all his actions (karma).
एवमल्पश्रुतो मन्त्री कल्याणाभिजनोऽप्युत ।
धर्मार्थकामयुक्तोऽपि नालं मन्त्रं परीक्षितुम् ॥२४॥
24. evamalpaśruto mantrī kalyāṇābhijano'pyuta ,
dharmārthakāmayukto'pi nālaṁ mantraṁ parīkṣitum.
24. evam alpaśrutaḥ mantrī kalyāṇābhijanaḥ api uta
dharmārthakāmayuktaḥ api na alam mantram parīkṣitum
24. evam alpaśrutaḥ mantrī kalyāṇābhijanaḥ api uta
dharmārthakāmayuktaḥ api mantram parīkṣitum na alam
24. Therefore, a minister who possesses little learning, even if he is of noble birth, and even if he is endowed with righteousness (dharma), wealth, and pleasure, is not capable of properly examining counsel (mantra).
तथैवानभिजातोऽपि काममस्तु बहुश्रुतः ।
अनायक इवाचक्षुर्मुह्यत्यूह्येषु कर्मसु ॥२५॥
25. tathaivānabhijāto'pi kāmamastu bahuśrutaḥ ,
anāyaka ivācakṣurmuhyatyūhyeṣu karmasu.
25. tathā eva anabhijātaḥ api kāmam astu bahuśrutaḥ
anāyakaḥ iva acakṣuḥ muhyati ūhyeṣu karmasu
25. tathā eva anabhijātaḥ api kāmam bahuśrutaḥ astu
anāyakaḥ acakṣuḥ iva ūhyeṣu karmasu muhyati
25. Similarly, even if one is not of noble birth, and indeed possesses extensive learning, he becomes bewildered in actions requiring deep consideration, like a blind person without a guide.
यो वा ह्यस्थिरसंकल्पो बुद्धिमानागतागमः ।
उपायज्ञोऽपि नालं स कर्म यापयितुं चिरम् ॥२६॥
26. yo vā hyasthirasaṁkalpo buddhimānāgatāgamaḥ ,
upāyajño'pi nālaṁ sa karma yāpayituṁ ciram.
26. yaḥ vā hi asthirasaṃkalpaḥ buddhimān āgatāgamaḥ
upāyajñaḥ api na alam saḥ karma yāpayitum ciram
26. hi yaḥ vā asthirasaṃkalpaḥ buddhimān āgatāgamaḥ
upāyajñaḥ api saḥ karma ciram yāpayitum na alam
26. Indeed, whoever has an unsteady resolve (saṃkalpa), even if he is intelligent and well-versed in traditional knowledge, and even if he knows the proper means, such a person is incapable of sustaining an undertaking (karma) for long.
केवलात्पुनराचारात्कर्मणो नोपपद्यते ।
परिमर्शो विशेषाणामश्रुतस्येह दुर्मतेः ॥२७॥
27. kevalātpunarācārātkarmaṇo nopapadyate ,
parimarśo viśeṣāṇāmaśrutasyeha durmateḥ.
27. kevalāt punaḥ ācārāt karmaṇaḥ na upapadyate
| parimarśaḥ viśeṣāṇām aśrutasya iha durmateḥ
27. iha durmateḥ aśrutasya,
kevalāt punaḥ ācārāt karmaṇaḥ (vā),
viśeṣāṇām parimarśaḥ na upapadyate.
27. For a foolish person (durmateḥ) who has not learned (aśrutasya), insight (parimarśaḥ) into particular distinctions (viśeṣāṇām) is not attained in this world (iha) merely through traditional conduct (ācārāt) or (ritual) action (karma).
मन्त्रिण्यननुरक्ते तु विश्वासो न हि विद्यते ।
तस्मादननुरक्ताय नैव मन्त्रं प्रकाशयेत् ॥२८॥
28. mantriṇyananurakte tu viśvāso na hi vidyate ,
tasmādananuraktāya naiva mantraṁ prakāśayet.
28. mantriṇi ananurakte tu viśvāsaḥ na hi vidyate
| tasmāt ananuraktāya na eva mantram prakāśayet
28. ananurakte mantriṇi tu viśvāsaḥ na hi vidyate tasmāt ananuraktāya mantram na eva prakāśayet.
28. Indeed, there is no trust (viśvāsaḥ) in a minister (mantriṇi) who is disloyal (ananurakte). Therefore, one should certainly never disclose counsel (mantram) to such a disloyal person (ananuraktāya).
व्यथयेद्धि स राजानं मन्त्रिभिः सहितोऽनृजुः ।
मारुतोपहतच्छिद्रैः प्रविश्याग्निरिव द्रुमम् ॥२९॥
29. vyathayeddhi sa rājānaṁ mantribhiḥ sahito'nṛjuḥ ,
mārutopahatacchidraiḥ praviśyāgniriva drumam.
29. vyathayet hi saḥ rājānam mantribhiḥ sahitaḥ anṛjuḥ
| mārutopahatacchidraiḥ praviśya agniḥ iva drumam
29. saḥ anṛjuḥ hi mantribhiḥ sahitaḥ rājānam vyathayet mārutopahatacchidraiḥ praviśya agniḥ iva drumam (vyathayet).
29. Indeed, that dishonest (anṛjuḥ) person, even when accompanied by other ministers (mantribhiḥ sahitaḥ), would distress the king, just as fire (agniḥ), having entered a tree (drumam) through crevices damaged by wind (mārutopahatacchidraiḥ), (harms it).
संक्रुध्यत्येकदा स्वामी स्थानाच्चैवापकर्षति ।
वाचा क्षिपति संरब्धस्ततः पश्चात्प्रसीदति ॥३०॥
30. saṁkrudhyatyekadā svāmī sthānāccaivāpakarṣati ,
vācā kṣipati saṁrabdhastataḥ paścātprasīdati.
30. saṃkrudhyati ekadā svāmī sthānāt ca eva apakarṣati
| vācā kṣipati saṃrabdhaḥ tataḥ paścāt prasīdati
30. ekadā svāmī saṃkrudhyati,
ca sthānāt eva apakarṣati saṃrabdhaḥ (san) vācā kṣipati,
tataḥ paścāt prasīdati.
30. Sometimes the master (svāmī) becomes intensely angry and indeed removes (someone) from their position. Enraged (saṃrabdhaḥ), he insults with words (vācā), but then afterwards he calms down (prasīdati).
तानि तान्यनुरक्तेन शक्यान्यनुतितिक्षितुम् ।
मन्त्रिणां च भवेत्क्रोधो विस्फूर्जितमिवाशनेः ॥३१॥
31. tāni tānyanuraktena śakyānyanutitikṣitum ,
mantriṇāṁ ca bhavetkrodho visphūrjitamivāśaneḥ.
31. tāni tāni anuraktena śakyāni anutitikṣitum
mantriṇām ca bhavet krodhaḥ visphūrjitam iva aśaneḥ
31. anuraktena tāni tāni anutitikṣitum śakyāni ca
mantriṇām krodhaḥ aśaneḥ visphūrjitam iva bhavet
31. A loyal person can endure those very difficulties. However, the anger of ministers would be like the thunder of a lightning bolt.
यस्तु संहरते तानि भर्तुः प्रियचिकीर्षया ।
समानसुखदुःखं तं पृच्छेदर्थेषु मानवम् ॥३२॥
32. yastu saṁharate tāni bhartuḥ priyacikīrṣayā ,
samānasukhaduḥkhaṁ taṁ pṛcchedartheṣu mānavam.
32. yaḥ tu saṃharate tāni bhartuḥ priyacikīrṣayā
samānasukhaduḥkham tam pṛcchet artheṣu mānavam
32. yaḥ tu bhartuḥ priyacikīrṣayā tāni saṃharate,
samānasukhaduḥkham tam mānavam artheṣu pṛcchet
