Kāmyake Arjuna-viyogaḥ — The Pandavas’ despondency in Kāmyaka during Arjuna’s absence
ईजे च विविधैर्यज्नैरविधिवच्चाप्तदक्षिणै: । तथा त्वमपि राजेन्द्र ससुह्दद् यक्ष्यसेडचिरात्,उन्होंने पर्याप्त दक्षिणासे युक्त विविध प्रकारके यज्ञोंद्वारा विधिपूर्वक भगवान्का यजन किया। राजेन्द्र! इसी प्रकार तुम भी पुनः अपना राज्य पाकर सुहृदोंसहित शीघ्र ही यज्ञका अनुष्ठान करोगे
bṛhadaśva uvāca | īje ca vividhair yajñair vidhivac cāptadakṣiṇaiḥ | tathā tvam api rājendra sasuhṛd yakṣyase ’cirāt ||
ブリハダシュヴァは言った。「彼は種々のヤジュニャ（祭祀）を、規定の作法に従い、ふさわしいダクシナー（祭礼の布施）を備えて執り行い、神々を供養した。王の中の王よ、汝もまた国を取り戻せば、親しき者たちと共に、ほどなく再び祭祀を修するであろう。」

Educational Q&A
A righteous king sustains dharma by performing sacrifices properly—according to prescribed rites and with appropriate dakṣiṇā—while also maintaining confidence that rightful order and prosperity can be restored.
Bṛhadaśva consoles the king he is addressing (Yudhiṣṭhira in the Vana Parva setting), recalling exemplary sacrificial worship and predicting that the king will soon regain his kingdom and again perform yajñas together with his allies and well-wishers.
