Shloka 116
न हि कर्णशरानन्य: सोदुमुत्सहते नर: । “कुन्तीनन्दन! तुम्हें पूर्ण प्रयत्न करके सूतपुत्र कर्णका वध करना चाहिये। दूसरा कोई मनुष्य कर्णके बाणोंको नहीं सह सकता है

na hi karṇaśarān anyaḥ soḍhum utsahate naraḥ |
ಸಂಜಯನು ಹೇಳಿದನು—ಕರ್ಣನ ಬಾಣಗಳನ್ನು ಸಹಿಸುವ ಶಕ್ತಿ ನಿನ್ನ ಹೊರತು ಬೇರೆ ಯಾವ ಮನುಷ್ಯನಿಗೂ ಇಲ್ಲ. ಆದ್ದರಿಂದ, ಓ ಕುಂತೀನಂದನ! ಸಂಪೂರ್ಣ ಪ್ರಯತ್ನದಿಂದ ಸೂತಪುತ್ರ ಕರ್ಣನನ್ನು ವಧಿಸು.
