धृतिमांश्व कृतज्ञश्न धर्मपुत्रो युधिष्ठिर: । धर्मपुत्र युधिष्ठिर ब्राह्मणभक्त, सत्यवादी, जितेन्द्रिय, गुरु और देवताओंका सम्मान करनेवाले, सदा धर्मपरायण, अस्त्रविद्यामें विशेष कुशल, धैर्यवान् और कृतज्ञ हैं
dhṛtimāṁś ca kṛtajñaś ca dharmaputro yudhiṣṭhiraḥ | dharmaputro yudhiṣṭhiraḥ brāhmaṇabhaktaḥ satyavādī jitendriyaḥ guru-devatā-sammānakārī sadā dharmaparāyaṇaḥ astravidyāyāṁ viśeṣa-kuśalaḥ dhairyavān ca kṛtajñaḥ |
クリパは言った。「ダルマの子ユディシュティラは、堅忍にして恩を知る者である。彼はブラーフマナを敬い、真実を語り、己を制し、師と神々を尊ぶ。常にダルマに帰依し、武器の学にとりわけ秀で、忍耐と勇気を備え、感謝の徳によって際立っている。」
