Jayadratha Approaches Draupadī in the Forest
Hospitality, Persuasion, and Reproach
स्वसेनया सम्प्रयान्तं नानुयान्ति सम पृष्ठतः । राजन! आप श्रेष्ठ नरेश हैं और अपनी सेनाके साथ वनमें पधारे हैं, ऐसी दशामें यहाँ रहनेवाले पाण्डव यदि आपके पीछे-पीछे न चलते--आपकी सहायता न करते तो यह उनके लिये अच्छी बात न होती
svasenayā samprayāntaṃ nānuyānti sama-pṛṣṭhataḥ | rājan! āpa śreṣṭha nareśa haiṃ aura apanī senā ke sātha vana meṃ padhāre haiṃ, aisī daśā meṃ yahāṃ rahanevāle pāṇḍava yadi āpake pīche-pīche na calte—āp kī sahāyatā na karte to yaha unake liye acchī bāta na hotī |
ກັນນະກ່າວວ່າ: «ເມື່ອກະສັດເຄື່ອນທັບໄປຂ້າງໜ້າພ້ອມກອງທັບຂອງຕົນ ຜູ້ຢູ່ຂ້າງຫຼັງບໍ່ຄວນຂາດການຕາມຫຼັງ. ໂອ ພະຣາຊາ, ທ່ານເປັນກະສັດອັນປະເສີດ ແລະໄດ້ເຂົ້າປ່າມາພ້ອມກຳລັງ; ໃນສະພາບເຊັ່ນນີ້ ຖ້າພວກປານດະວະຜູ້ອາໄສຢູ່ນີ້ບໍ່ເດີນຕາມຫຼັງ ແລະບໍ່ຊ່ວຍເຫຼືອທ່ານ ກໍຈະບໍ່ເໝາະສົມສຳລັບເຂົາເຈົ້າ»។
कर्ण उवाच
Karna frames a norm of royal and martial conduct: when a rightful king advances with his army, those positioned to support him—especially allied or resident kṣatriyas—should follow and assist; failing to do so is ethically improper and politically disloyal.
Karna addresses a king who has come into the forest with troops and argues that the Pāṇḍavas living there ought to have followed behind and helped him; he presents their non-participation as unbecoming, thereby urging expectations of support and alignment.
