उद्योगपर्व — अध्याय ८१: कृष्णस्य दूतप्रयाणम्
Udyoga Parva, Chapter 81: Krishna Sets Out as Envoy
सत्यं ते प्रतिजानामि कृष्णे बाष्पो निगृहताम् । हतामित्रज्श्रिया युक्तानचिराद् द्रक्ष्यसे पतीन्
satyaṃ te pratijānāmi kṛṣṇe bāṣpo nigṛhyatām | hatāmitraj-śriyā yuktān acirād drakṣyase patīn ||
ໄວສັມປາຍະນະ ກ່າວວ່າ: “ໂອ ກຣິສນາ (ດຣາວປະດີ)! ຈົ່ງກັ້ນນ້ຳຕາໄວ້. ຂ້າພະເຈົ້າຂໍປະຕິຍານດ້ວຍຄວາມຈິງຕໍ່ເຈົ້າ: ອີກບໍ່ດົນ ເຈົ້າຈະເຫັນສາມີຂອງເຈົ້າທັງຫຼາຍ ພ້ອມດ້ວຍສິຣິລາດຊະສົມບັດ, ແລະສັດຕູຖືກຂ້າລົງແລ້ວ.”
वैशम्पायन उवाच
The verse emphasizes truthful assurance and moral steadiness in crisis: grief is acknowledged but should be restrained when grounded in a righteous vow and confidence that justice will prevail.
The speaker addresses Kṛṣṇā (Draupadī), urging her to stop weeping and promising that soon she will witness her husbands restored to prosperity after their enemies are slain—foreshadowing the coming war and its outcome.
