Transliteration
ápratīto jayati sáṃ dhánāni práti-janyāny utá yā́ sá-janyā | avasyáve yó várivaḥ kṛṇóti bráhmaṇe rājā́ tám avanti devā́ḥ ||
Translation
जिस राजा का कोई सामने नहीं आता, वो धन जीत लेता है। दुश्मन का भी और अपने लोगों का भी। जो राजा ब्रह्मन के काम में हेल्प करता है, भगवान उसकी हेल्प करते हैं। वो राजा सेफ रहता है।
