Shloka 6
Adhyāya 59: Vidura’s Admonition to Duryodhana after the Summons of Draupadī (सभा पर्व)
Devanagari script
न हि मान प्रशंसन्ति निकृती कितवस्य हि । शकुने मैव नो जैषीरमार्गेण नृशंसवत्
Transliteration
na hi mānaṃ praśaṃsanti nikṛtī kitavasya hi | śakune mā eva no jaiṣīr amārgeṇa nṛśaṃsavat, śakune ||
Translation
Yudhiṣṭhira berkata: “Kehormatan yang lahir dari tipu daya dan kelicikan penjudi sesungguhnya tidak patut dipuji. Wahai Śakuni, janganlah engkau berusaha menaklukkan kami melalui jalan yang adharma, seperti orang kejam; jangan biarkan kemenangan menjadi milikmu lewat kecurangan.”
