Shloka 7
कर्णेन युधिष्ठिरानीकविदारणम् / Karṇa’s Breach of Yudhiṣṭhira’s Battle-Line
ते यूयं संहता: सर्वे मदीयेनार्धतेजसा । जयध्वं युधि ताञ्शत्रून् संहता हि महाबला:,अतः तुम सब लोग एक साथ संघ बनाकर मेरे आधे तेजसे पुष्ट हो युद्धमें उन शत्रुओंको जीत लो; क्योंकि जो संघटित होते हैं वे महान् बलशाली हो जाते हैं
te yūyaṃ saṃhatāḥ sarve madīyenārdha-tejasā | jayadhvaṃ yudhi tāñ śatrūn saṃhatā hi mahābalāḥ ||
દુર્યોધને કહ્યું—તમે સૌ એકત્રિત રહી, મારા અર્ધ તેજથી બળવાન બની, યુદ્ધમાં તે શત્રુઓને જીતો; કારણ કે સંગઠિત થઈ લડનારાઓ ખરેખર મહાબળવાન બને છે.
