Udyoga Parva, Chapter 81: Krishna Sets Out as Envoy
एवं ता भीरु रोत्स्यन्ति निहतज्ञातिबान्धवा: । हतमित्रा हतबला येषां क्रुद्धासि भामिनि
evaṁ tā bhīru rotsyanti nihatājñātibāndhavāḥ | hatamitrā hatabalā yeṣāṁ kruddhāsi bhāmini ||
Thus, O timid one, those women will weep—bereft of kinsmen and kin, their friends slain and their strength broken—because you, O passionate lady, have grown wrathful toward them.

The verse underscores the moral consequence of wrath: anger that drives conflict results in the suffering of innocents—especially families—who are left to mourn slain relatives, friends, and protectors.
Vaiśampāyana narrates a warning addressed to a woman (bhīru/bhāmini): because of her anger, others—described as women deprived of kin, allies, and strength—will be left lamenting in the aftermath of violence.
