7. O best among the Bharatas (bharataśreṣṭha), the superintendent (adhyakṣaḥ) of a hundred villages, being honored (satkṛtaḥ), is entitled to enjoy a large (mahāntaṃ) village (grāmam) that is densely populated (susphītajanasaṃkulam). Indeed (hi), for the king (rājñaḥ), many things (anekam) are dependent (āyattam) on such a village, O Bhārata.

योगक्षेमं च संप्रेक्ष्य वणिजः कारयेत्करान् ॥११॥

pūrvarājñām uccāvacakarāḥ nyāyyāḥ.
mahīpatiḥ yathā yathā na hīyeran tathā kuryāt.
13. O Yudhishthira, the various taxes of former kings were just. The king should act in such a way that [the kingdom or its people] do not diminish or suffer loss in any way.

tathā rājñā samavekṣya karāḥ satatam praṇeyāḥ.
15. So that both the king and the performing agent (i.e., the taxpayer) may be participants (sharers) in the [economic] activity (karma), the king should therefore, after careful consideration, always levy taxes accordingly.

ucchindyāt īhādvārāṇi saṃrudhya saṃprītidarśanaḥ
16. A king should not destroy his own foundation (mūlam) or that of others out of craving (tṛṣṇā). By restraining the doors of ambition (īhā), he becomes one who inspires affection.

प्रद्विष्टस्य कुतः श्रेयः संप्रियो लभते प्रियम् ॥१७॥

17. parikhyātam atikhādinam rājānam pradviṣanti
pradviṣṭasya śreyaḥ kutaḥ saṃpriyaḥ priyam labhate
17. People detest a renowned king who is overly indulgent. How can there be prosperity for one who is detested? Only a beloved one achieves what is favorable.

भृतो वत्सो जातबलः पीडां सहति भारत ॥१८॥

18. akṣīṇabuddhinā vatsaupamyena rāṣṭram dogdhavyam
bhṛtaḥ jātabalaḥ vatsaḥ pīḍām sahati bhārata
18. The kingdom (rāṣṭra) should be nourished like a calf by a ruler of undiminished wisdom. A well-fed calf, having grown strong, endures hardship, O Bhārata.
न कर्म कुरुते वत्सो भृशं दुग्धो युधिष्ठिर ।
राष्ट्रमप्यतिदुग्धं हि न कर्म कुरुते महत् ॥१९॥
19. na karma kurute vatso bhṛśaṁ dugdho yudhiṣṭhira ,
rāṣṭramapyatidugdhaṁ hi na karma kurute mahat.
19. na karma kurute vatsaḥ bhṛśam dugdhaḥ yudhiṣṭhira
rāṣṭram api atidugdham hi na karma kurute mahat
19. bhṛśam dugdhaḥ vatsaḥ karma na kurute yudhiṣṭhira
atidugdham rāṣṭram api hi mahat karma na kurute
19. A calf that is excessively milked does not perform any work, O Yudhiṣṭhira. Indeed, a kingdom (rāṣṭra) that is overly exploited also fails to achieve great things.
यो राष्ट्रमनुगृह्णाति परिगृह्य स्वयं नृपः ।
संजातमुपजीवन्स लभते सुमहत्फलम् ॥२०॥

saṃjātam upajīvan saḥ labhate sumahat phalam
20. nṛpaḥ yaḥ svayam rāṣṭram anugṛhṇāti parigṛhya
saṃjātam upajīvan saḥ sumahat phalam labhate
20. A king who personally protects and supports the kingdom, while subsisting on its produce, obtains a very great reward.
आपदर्थं हि निचयान्राजान इह चिन्वते ।
राष्ट्रं च कोशभूतं स्यात्कोशो वेश्मगतस्तथा ॥२१॥
21. āpadarthaṁ hi nicayānrājāna iha cinvate ,
rāṣṭraṁ ca kośabhūtaṁ syātkośo veśmagatastathā.
21. āpadartham hi nicayān rājānaḥ iha cinvate |
rāṣṭram ca kośabhūtam syāt kośaḥ veśmagataḥ tathā
21. rājānaḥ iha āpadartham hi nicayān cinvate
rāṣṭram ca kośabhūtam syāt tathā kośaḥ veśmagataḥ
21. Indeed, kings here accumulate resources for times of calamity. The kingdom itself should serve as a treasury, just as a treasury is kept within the palace.
पौरजानपदान्सर्वान्संश्रितोपाश्रितांस्तथा ।
यथाशक्त्यनुकम्पेत सर्वानभ्यन्तरानपि ॥२२॥

| yathāśakti anukampeta sarvān abhyantarān api
22. yathāśakti paurajānapadān sarvān saṃśritopāśritān
tathā sarvān abhyantarān api anukampeta
22. The king should show compassion, to the best of his ability, to all citizens and country dwellers, as well as to all dependents and those seeking refuge, and even to those within his inner circle.
बाह्यं जनं भेदयित्वा भोक्तव्यो मध्यमः सुखम् ।
एवं न संप्रकुप्यन्ते जनाः सुखितदुःखिताः ॥२३॥

evaṁ na saṁprakupyante janāḥ sukhitaduḥkhitāḥ.

| evam na samprakupyante janāḥ sukhitaduḥkhitāḥ
23. bāhyam janam bhedayitvā madhyamaḥ sukham bhoktavyaḥ
evam janāḥ sukhitaduḥkhitāḥ na samprakupyante
23. By causing division among the external populace, the central population should be ruled or cared for contentedly. In this manner, people - whether they are happy or unhappy - will not become overly agitated or rebellious.
प्रागेव तु करादानमनुभाष्य पुनः पुनः ।
संनिपत्य स्वविषये भयं राष्ट्रे प्रदर्शयेत् ॥२४॥

24. tu prāk eva punaḥ punaḥ karādānam anubhāṣya,
svaviṣaye saṃnipatya,
rāṣṭre bhayam pradarśayet
24. But first, having repeatedly explained the matter of tax collection, one should then, after gathering in one's own territory, reveal the danger (bhayam) to the kingdom.
इयमापत्समुत्पन्ना परचक्रभयं महत् ।
अपि नान्ताय कल्पेत वेणोरिव फलागमः ॥२५॥
25. iyamāpatsamutpannā paracakrabhayaṁ mahat ,
api nāntāya kalpeta veṇoriva phalāgamaḥ.
25. iyam āpat samutpannā paracakrabhayam mahat
api na antāya kalpeta veṇoḥ iva phalāgamaḥ
25. iyam āpat,
mahat paracakrabhayam samutpannā.
api veṇoḥ phalāgamaḥ iva,
antāya na kalpeta
25. This calamity, a great danger (bhayam) from enemy forces, has arisen. May it not lead to our destruction, just as the fruiting of bamboo (phalāgama) leads to its end.
अरयो मे समुत्थाय बहुभिर्दस्युभिः सह ।
इदमात्मवधायैव राष्ट्रमिच्छन्ति बाधितुम् ॥२६॥

idam rāṣṭram ātmavadhāya eva bādhitum icchanti
26. My enemies, having risen up with numerous bandits, intend to oppress this kingdom, [an act that will be] indeed for their own destruction.

paritrāṇāya bhavatāṁ prārthayiṣye dhanāni vaḥ.
27. asyām āpadi ghorāyām samprāpte dāruṇe bhaye

27. asyām ghorāyām āpadi,
dāruṇe bhaye samprāpte [sati],
bhavatām paritrāṇāya vaḥ dhanāni prārthayiṣye
27. In this terrible calamity, when dreadful danger (bhayam) has indeed arrived, I shall ask for your wealth (dhana) for your (bhavatām) protection.
प्रतिदास्ये च भवतां सर्वं चाहं भयक्षये ।
नारयः प्रतिदास्यन्ति यद्धरेयुर्बलादितः ॥२८॥

nārayaḥ pratidāsyanti yaddhareyurbalāditaḥ.

api cet putradārārtham artha sañcayaḥ iṣyate
29. Beginning with one's family, one's own property would surely be lost spontaneously, even if wealth accumulation is desired for the sake of sons and wives.

kasyāṃcit āpadi vaḥ dhanam priyataraṃ kāryam na
31. And in calamities, it must be endured by you, as by good oxen. For you, wealth is not more important than duty in any adversity.
इति वाचा मधुरया श्लक्ष्णया सोपचारया ।
स्वरश्मीनभ्यवसृजेद्युगमादाय कालवित् ॥३२॥

vācā yugam ādāya svaraśmīn abhyavasṛjet
