यत्र हर्षस्त्वया कार्य: सत्कर्तव्याश्व पाण्डवा: । तत्र शोचसि राजेन्द्र विपरीतमिदं तव
yatra harṣas tvayā kāryaḥ satkartavyāś ca pāṇḍavāḥ | tatra śocasi rājendra viparītam idaṃ tava rājendra ||
ໄວສັມປາຍະນະ ກ່າວວ່າ: «ໂອ ພະຣາຊາຜູ້ປະເສີດ! ບ່ອນທີ່ເຈົ້າຄວນຍິນດີ ແລະ ຄວນໃຫ້ກຽດແກ່ປານດະວະ ກັບເປັນບ່ອນທີ່ເຈົ້າໂສກເສົ້າ. ການປະພຶດຂອງເຈົ້ານີ້ ໂອ ພະຣາຊາ ແມ່ນກົງກັນຂ້າມກັບສິ່ງທີ່ຄວນເປັນ».

Educational Q&A
A king (or any responsible person) should respond to worthy people with appropriate joy and honor; grieving where one should celebrate and show respect is presented as a reversal of proper dharmic conduct.
Vaiśaṃpāyana addresses a king as ‘rājendra’ and rebukes him: instead of rejoicing and honoring the Pāṇḍavas, he is lamenting, and this reaction is described as inappropriate and contrary to what the situation demands.
