Chapter 20
ते मया55श्वासिता वीरा यथावद् भरतर्षभ | सर्वे मामब्रुवन् हृष्टा: प्रयाहि जहि शात्रवान्,भरतकुलभूषण! मेरे इस प्रकार आश्वासन देनेपर सभी यदुवंशी वीरोंने प्रसन्न होकर मुझसे कहा--“जाइये और शत्रुओंका विनाश कीजिये”
te mayāśvāsitā vīrā yathāvad bharatarṣabha | sarve mām abruvan hṛṣṭāḥ prayāhi jahi śātravān bharatakula-bhūṣaṇa ||
Wahai yang utama di antara keturunan Bharata, setelah aku menenteramkan para pahlawan itu dengan semestinya, mereka semua bersukacita dan berkata kepadaku: “Berangkatlah, dan binasakanlah para musuh.”

After Vasudeva encourages the assembled warriors, they respond joyfully and urge him to proceed and destroy the enemies, addressing him with honorific epithets tied to the Bharata lineage.
