Shloka 7
मित्रध्रुग् दुष्टभावश्च नास्तिको5थानृजु: शठ: । न सत्सु लभते पूजां यज्ञे मूर्ख इवागत:,जैसे यज्ञमें आया हुआ मूर्ख ब्राह्मण प्रतिष्ठा नहीं पाता, उसी प्रकार जो मित्रद्रोही, दुर्भावनायुक्त, नास्तिक, कुटिल और शठ है, वह सत्पुरुषोंमें कभी सम्मान नहीं पाता है
mitradhruk duṣṭabhāvaś ca nāstiko 'thānṛjuḥ śaṭhaḥ | na satsu labhate pūjāṁ yajñe mūrkha ivāgataḥ ||
ビーシュマは言った。「友を裏切り、邪悪な心を宿し、聖なるものを否み（不信に陥り）、曲がりくねって欺く者は、徳ある人々の間で決して名誉を得ない。祭祀に現れた愚かなバラモンが尊敬を受けぬように、悪意と不信の者もまた、善き人々の交わりにおいて真の敬意を得ることはない。」

Educational Q&A
Honor in the company of the virtuous is not obtained by status or mere presence; it depends on character. Betraying friends, cultivating malice, rejecting dharma, and practicing crooked deceit make a person unworthy of respect among good people.
In Udyoga Parva, Bhīṣma offers counsel on conduct and the qualities that lead to esteem or disgrace. Here he uses a ritual simile—an unworthy, foolish attendee at a yajña gains no regard—to stress that the wicked and deceitful similarly receive no honor among the righteous.
