śrībhagavān uvāca | sañjayasya śrutaṃ vākyaṃ bhavataś ca śrutaṃ mayā | sarvaṃ jānāmy abhiprāyaṃ teṣāṃ ca bhavataś ca yaḥ ||
ພຣະຜູ້ເປັນເຈົ້າຕັດວ່າ: «ໂອ ພຣະມະຫາກະສັດ, ຂ້າໄດ້ຟັງຖ້ອຍຄໍາຂອງສັນຊະຍະແລ້ວ ແລະກໍໄດ້ຟັງຖ້ອຍຄໍາຂອງພຣະອົງດ້ວຍ. ຂ້າຮູ້ຊັດເຈນຄວາມປະສົງຂອງພວກກົວຣະວະທັງປວງ ແລະກໍບໍ່ໄດ້ບໍ່ຮູ້ກ່ຽວກັບຄວາມຕັ້ງໃຈໃນພຣະທັຍຂອງພຣະອົງ»។
युधिछिर उवाच
A leader should act with clear knowledge of all parties’ intentions and with awareness of one’s own resolve; ethical action in crisis requires informed discernment rather than impulsive reaction.
Śrī Kṛṣṇa addresses Yudhiṣṭhira, stating that he has heard both Sañjaya’s message and Yudhiṣṭhira’s words, and that he understands the Kauravas’ intentions as well as Yudhiṣṭhira’s stance—setting the stage for counsel regarding the coming conflict.
