Alāyudha’s Resolve to Confront Bhīma
एवमुक्तौ महात्मानावुभौ केशवपाण्डवौ । तावब्रूतां तदा कृष्णौ राजानं पृथिवीपतिम्,उनके ऐसा कहनेपर महात्मा श्रीकृष्ण और अर्जुनने उस समय उन पृथ्वीपति नरेशसे इस प्रकार कहा--
evam uktau mahātmānāv ubhau keśava-pāṇḍavau | tāv abrūtāṁ tadā kṛṣṇau rājānaṁ pṛthivī-patim ||
ສັນຈະຍະ ກ່າວວ່າ: ເມື່ອຄຳເວົ້ານັ້ນຖືກກ່າວຈົບແລ້ວ ວິລະບຸລຸດຜູ້ມີໃຈຍິ່ງທັງສອງ—ເກສະວະ (ກຣິດສະນະ) ແລະ ປານດະວະ (ອາຈຸນ)—ໄດ້ກ່າວຕໍ່ກະສັດ ຜູ້ເປັນເຈົ້າແຫ່ງພື້ນພິພົບ ໃນຂະນະນັ້ນ ດັ່ງນີ້.
