Shloka 10
एष मे निश्चय: साधो कृतं कारणमुनत्तमम् । आमन्त्रयामि भद्र ते कृतार्थोडस्मि भुजजड्रम
eṣa me niścayaḥ sādho kṛtaṃ kāraṇam uttamam | āmantrayāmi bhadra te kṛtārtho ’smi bhujaṅgama mahātman ||
ພຣະພຣາຫມັນກ່າວວ່າ: «ນີ້ແມ່ນຄວາມຕັ້ງໃຈອັນໝັ້ນຄົງຂອງຂ້າ, ໂອ ຜູ້ດີ. ຈຸດປະສົງໄດ້ສຳເລັດແລ້ວ—ແຖມຍັງສຳເລັດຢ່າງດີທີ່ສຸດ. ບັດນີ້ຂ້າຂໍລາຈາກທ່ານ; ຂໍໃຫ້ມີມົງຄຸນແກ່ທ່ານ. ໂອ ພຣະນາກ ຜູ້ມີຈິດໃຫຍ່, ຂ້າໄດ້ບັນລຸເປົ້າໝາຍແລ້ວ; ຂໍອະນຸຍາດໃຫ້ຂ້າເດີນທາງໄປ».
