अरुन्धत्युवाच तपोवृद्धिर्मया प्राप्ता भवतां स्मरणेन वै । भवतां च प्रसादेन धर्मान् वक्ष्यामि शाश्वतान्
aruṇdaty uvāca | tapovṛddhir mayā prāptā bhavatāṁ smaraṇena vai | bhavatāṁ ca prasādena dharmān vakṣyāmi śāśvatān |
ອະຣຸນທະຕີກ່າວວ່າ: “ເນື່ອງຈາກພວກເຈົ້າໄດ້ລະລຶກເຖິງຂ້າພະເຈົ້າ ພະລັງຕະປະຂອງຂ້າພະເຈົ້າຈຶ່ງເພີ່ມພູນ. ແລະໂດຍພຣະກະລຸນາຂອງພວກເຈົ້າ ຂ້າພະເຈົ້າຈະຖະແຫຼງບັດນີ້ ຫຼັກທໍາອັນຖາວອນ ພ້ອມທັງນັຍະພາຍໃນອັນຄວນຮັກສາໄວ້. ຈົ່ງຟັງ. ຄໍາສອນເຫຼົ່ານີ້ຄວນຖ່າຍທອດໃຫ້ແຕ່ຜູ້ມີສັດທາ ແລະຈິດໃຈບໍລິສຸດເທົ່ານັ້ນ.”
