yuyutsavaḥ praviviśuḥ jarāsaṃdhena bhārata
21. O Bhārata, those who had completed their student vows entered. Although they were unarmed, their powerful arms served as their weapons, and they were eager to fight Jarāsaṃdha.

sphītām sarvaguṇopetām sarvakāmasamṛddhinīm
22. And they beheld the exquisite splendor of the food stalls and flower shops, which was flourishing, endowed with every good quality, and fulfilling all desires.
तां तु दृष्ट्वा समृद्धिं ते वीथ्यां तस्यां नरोत्तमाः ।
राजमार्गेण गच्छन्तः कृष्णभीमधनंजयाः ॥२३॥

तान्पाद्यमधुपर्कार्हान्मानार्हान्सत्कृतिं गतान् ।

| pratyutthāya jarāsaṃdhaḥ upatasthe yathā-vidhi
29. Jarāsandha rose to greet them, who were worthy of receiving water for their feet, the honey-mixture offering, and honor. He attended to these honored guests according to the established custom.
उवाच चैतान्राजासौ स्वागतं वोऽस्त्विति प्रभुः ।

30. uvāca ca etān rājā asau svāgatam vaḥ astu iti prabhuḥ
| tasya hi etat vratam rājan babhūva bhuvi viśrutam
30. And that mighty King (Jarāsandha) said to them, "Welcome to you!" Indeed, O King, this sacred observance (vrata) of his was well-known on earth.
स्नातकान्ब्राह्मणान्प्राप्ताञ्श्रुत्वा स समितिंजयः ।
अप्यर्धरात्रे नृपतिः प्रत्युद्गच्छति भारत ॥३१॥

31. snātakān brāhmaṇān prāptān śrutvā sa samitiṃjayaḥ
| api ardha-rātre nṛpatiḥ pratyudgacchati bhārata
31. O Bhārata, having heard that Snātaka Brahmins had arrived, that King Jarāsandha, the conqueror in assemblies, would go to meet them even at midnight.
तांस्त्वपूर्वेण वेषेण दृष्ट्वा नृपतिसत्तमः ।

upatasthe jarāsaṃdhaḥ vismitaḥ ca abhavat tadā
32. But having seen them in an unprecedented disguise, Jarāsandha, the best of kings, attended to them and then became astonished.
ते तु दृष्ट्वैव राजानं जरासंधं नरर्षभाः ।
इदमूचुरमित्रघ्नाः सर्वे भरतसत्तम ॥३३॥

33. te tu dṛṣṭvā eva rājānaṃ jarāsaṃdhaṃ nararṣabhāḥ
idam ūcuḥ amitraghnāḥ sarve bharatasattama
33. O best of Bharatas, all those best among men, the slayers of enemies, indeed, having just seen King Jarāsandha, said this:
स्वस्त्यस्तु कुशलं राजन्निति सर्वे व्यवस्थिताः ।
तं नृपं नृपशार्दूल विप्रैक्षन्त परस्परम् ॥३४॥
34. svastyastu kuśalaṁ rājanniti sarve vyavasthitāḥ ,
taṁ nṛpaṁ nṛpaśārdūla vipraikṣanta parasparam.
34. svasti astu kuśalaṃ rājan iti sarve vyavasthitāḥ
tam nṛpaṃ nṛpaśārdūla vi pra īkṣanta parasparam
34. O tiger among kings, all of them stood poised and said, 'May there be well-being and welfare, O King!' Then they looked at that king and at each other.
तानब्रवीज्जरासंधस्तदा यादवपाण्डवान् ।
आस्यतामिति राजेन्द्र ब्राह्मणच्छद्मसंवृतान् ॥३५॥
35. tānabravījjarāsaṁdhastadā yādavapāṇḍavān ,

35. tān abravīt jarāsaṃdhaḥ tadā yādavapāṇḍavān
āsyatām iti rājendra brāhmaṇacchadmasaṃvṛtān
35. O supreme ruler, Jarāsandha then said to those Yadavas and Pāṇḍavas, who were disguised as Brahmins, 'Please sit down.'
अथोपविविशुः सर्वे त्रयस्ते पुरुषर्षभाः ।
संप्रदीप्तास्त्रयो लक्ष्म्या महाध्वर इवाग्नयः ॥३६॥
36. athopaviviśuḥ sarve trayaste puruṣarṣabhāḥ ,
saṁpradīptāstrayo lakṣmyā mahādhvara ivāgnayaḥ.
36. atha upaviviśuḥ sarve trayaḥ te puruṣarṣabhāḥ

36. atha te sarve trayaḥ puruṣarṣabhāḥ upaviviśuḥ
sampradīptāḥ trayaḥ lakṣmyā mahādhvara iva agnayaḥ
36. Then, all three of those foremost among men sat down, gleaming brilliantly with splendor (lakṣmī), like the three fires (agnayaḥ) in a great Vedic ritual (mahādhvara).
तानुवाच जरासंधः सत्यसंधो नराधिपः ।

37. tān uvāca jarāsaṃdhaḥ satyasaṃdhaḥ narādhipaḥ
| vigarhamāṇaḥ kauravya veṣagrahaṇakāraṇāt
37. Jarasandha, the king of men who was steadfast in his promise, spoke to them, reproaching them, O son of Kuru, on account of their having assumed a disguise.
न स्नातकव्रता विप्रा बहिर्माल्यानुलेपनाः ।
भवन्तीति नृलोकेऽस्मिन्विदितं मम सर्वशः ॥३८॥
38. na snātakavratā viprā bahirmālyānulepanāḥ ,
bhavantīti nṛloke'sminviditaṁ mama sarvaśaḥ.
38. na snātaka-vratāḥ viprāḥ bahiḥ-mālya-anulepanāḥ |
bhavanti iti nṛ-loke asmin viditam mama sarvaśaḥ
38. Brahmins (vipra) who observe the vows of a Vedic graduate (snātaka) are not externally adorned with garlands and ointments. This fact is entirely known to me in this human world.
ते यूयं पुष्पवन्तश्च भुजैर्ज्याघातलक्षणैः ।
बिभ्रतः क्षात्रमोजश्च ब्राह्मण्यं प्रतिजानथ ॥३९॥
39. te yūyaṁ puṣpavantaśca bhujairjyāghātalakṣaṇaiḥ ,
bibhrataḥ kṣātramojaśca brāhmaṇyaṁ pratijānatha.
39. te yūyam puṣpavantas ca bhujaiḥ jyāghāta-lakṣaṇaiḥ
| bibhrataḥ kṣātram ojas ca brāhmaṇyam pratijānatha
39. And you all, adorned with flowers, whose arms bear the distinctive marks of bowstring scars, possessing martial (kṣātra) strength, still declare yourselves to be Brahmins.
एवं विरागवसना बहिर्माल्यानुलेपनाः ।
सत्यं वदत के यूयं सत्यं राजसु शोभते ॥४०॥

40. evam virāga-vasanāḥ bahiḥ-mālya-anulepanāḥ |
satyam vadata ke yūyam satyam rājasu śobhate
40. Therefore, wearing plain, unadorned garments and being devoid of external garlands and ointments, tell me truly, who are you? Indeed, truth is fitting for kings.
चैत्यकं च गिरेः शृङ्गं भित्त्वा किमिव सद्म नः ।
अद्वारेण प्रविष्टाः स्थ निर्भया राजकिल्बिषात् ॥४१॥

advāreṇa praviṣṭāḥ stha nirbhayā rājakilbiṣāt.
41. caityakam ca gireḥ śṛṅgam bhittvā kim iva sadma
naḥ advāreṇa praviṣṭāḥ stha nirbhayā rājakilbiṣāt
41. Having broken through the mountain's peak, what sort of dwelling is this of ours? You have entered without a door, completely fearless of any royal transgression.
कर्म चैतद्विलिङ्गस्य किं वाद्य प्रसमीक्षितम् ।
वदध्वं वाचि वीर्यं च ब्राह्मणस्य विशेषतः ॥४२॥

42. What action by this disguised person has been observed or considered today? Speak! And [consider] the power in speech, especially that of a brahmin.
एवं च मामुपस्थाय कस्माच्च विधिनार्हणाम् ।
प्रणीतां नो न गृह्णीत कार्यं किं चास्मदागमे ॥४३॥
43. evaṁ ca māmupasthāya kasmācca vidhinārhaṇām ,

43. evam ca mām upasthāya kasmāt ca vidhinā arhaṇām
praṇītām naḥ na gṛhṇīta kāryam kim ca asmadāgame
43. Having thus approached me, why do you not accept the respectful offering presented by us according to custom? And what is your purpose for coming to us?
एवमुक्तस्ततः कृष्णः प्रत्युवाच महामनाः ।
स्निग्धगम्भीरया वाचा वाक्यं वाक्यविशारदः ॥४४॥
44. evamuktastataḥ kṛṣṇaḥ pratyuvāca mahāmanāḥ ,

44. evam uktaḥ tataḥ kṛṣṇaḥ pratyuvāca mahāmanāḥ
snigdhagambhīrayā vācā vākyam vākyaviśāradaḥ
44. Thus addressed, the magnanimous Kṛṣṇa, an expert in speech, then replied with words in a gentle and profound voice.
स्नातकव्रतिनो राजन्ब्राह्मणाः क्षत्रिया विशः ।
विशेषनियमाश्चैषामविशेषाश्च सन्त्युत ॥४५॥
45. snātakavratino rājanbrāhmaṇāḥ kṣatriyā viśaḥ ,

45. snātaka-vratinaḥ rājan brāhmaṇāḥ kṣatriyāḥ viśaḥ
viśeṣa-niyamāḥ ca eṣām aviśeṣāḥ ca santi uta
45. O King, for Brahmins, Kshatriyas, and Vaishyas who have completed their Vedic studies and undertaken the graduate's vow, there are indeed both specific rules and general rules.
विशेषवांश्च सततं क्षत्रियः श्रियमर्छति ।
पुष्पवत्सु ध्रुवा श्रीश्च पुष्पवन्तस्ततो वयम् ॥४६॥
46. viśeṣavāṁśca satataṁ kṣatriyaḥ śriyamarchati ,
puṣpavatsu dhruvā śrīśca puṣpavantastato vayam.
46. viśeṣavān ca satatam kṣatriyaḥ śriyam arcchati
puṣpavatsu dhruvā śrīḥ ca puṣpavantaḥ tataḥ vayam
46. And a specially distinguished kshatriya (kṣatriya) always attains prosperity (śrī). Prosperity (śrī) is enduring among the prosperous, and therefore, we are also prosperous.
क्षत्रियो बाहुवीर्यस्तु न तथा वाक्यवीर्यवान् ।
अप्रगल्भं वचस्तस्य तस्माद्बार्हद्रथे स्मृतम् ॥४७॥
47. kṣatriyo bāhuvīryastu na tathā vākyavīryavān ,
apragalbhaṁ vacastasya tasmādbārhadrathe smṛtam.
47. kṣatriyaḥ bāhuvīryaḥ tu na tathā vākyavīryavān
apragalbham vacaḥ tasya tasmāt bārhadrathe smṛtam
47. A kshatriya (kṣatriya) is indeed strong through his arms, but not so much through his words. His speech is not eloquent, therefore, this is remembered concerning Bṛhadratha's son (Jarāsandha).
स्ववीर्यं क्षत्रियाणां च बाह्वोर्धाता न्यवेशयत् ।
तद्दिदृक्षसि चेद्राजन्द्रष्टास्यद्य न संशयः ॥४८॥
48. svavīryaṁ kṣatriyāṇāṁ ca bāhvordhātā nyaveśayat ,
taddidṛkṣasi cedrājandraṣṭāsyadya na saṁśayaḥ.
48. svavīryam kṣatriyāṇām ca bāhvoḥ dhātā nyaveśayat
tat didṛkṣasi cet rājan draṣṭā asi adya na saṃśayaḥ
48. And the Creator (dhātā) placed the intrinsic strength (svavīrya) of the kshatriyas (kṣatriya) in their arms. If, O King, you wish to see that, you shall certainly see it today; there is no doubt.
अद्वारेण रिपोर्गेहं द्वारेण सुहृदो गृहम् ।
प्रविशन्ति सदा सन्तो द्वारं नो वर्जितं ततः ॥४९॥
49. advāreṇa riporgehaṁ dvāreṇa suhṛdo gṛham ,
praviśanti sadā santo dvāraṁ no varjitaṁ tataḥ.
49. advāreṇa ripoḥ geham dvāreṇa suhṛdaḥ gṛham
praviśanti sadā santaḥ dvāram naḥ varjitam tataḥ
49. Righteous individuals (santaḥ) always enter an enemy's dwelling through unauthorized means, while they enter a friend's home respectfully through the proper entrance. Consequently, no entrance is ever closed to them.
कार्यवन्तो गृहानेत्य शत्रुतो नार्हणां वयम् ।
प्रतिगृह्णीम तद्विद्धि एतन्नः शाश्वतं व्रतम् ॥५०॥
50. kāryavanto gṛhānetya śatruto nārhaṇāṁ vayam ,
pratigṛhṇīma tadviddhi etannaḥ śāśvataṁ vratam.
50. kāryavantaḥ gṛhān etya śatrutaḥ na arhaṇām vayam
pratigṛhṇīma tat viddhi etat naḥ śāśvatam vratam
50. We do not accept hospitality or honor from an enemy, even if they come to our homes with some purpose. Understand this; it is our eternal vow (vrata).
