Shloka 12
राजानमगद्य भवतां न्यासभूत॑ं ददानि वै । तस्य संरक्षणे सर्वे यतध्वं विगतज्वरा:,“इस समय राजाको धरोहरके रूपमें मैं तुम्हें सौंप रहा हूँ। तुम सब लोग निश्चिन्त होकर इनकी रक्षाके लिये पूर्ण प्रयत्न करना”
rājānam agadya bhavatāṁ nyāsabhūtaṁ dadāni vai | tasya saṁrakṣaṇe sarve yatadhvaṁ vigatajvarāḥ ||
Disse Sañjaya: “Tendo-vos falado, agora confio o rei aos vossos cuidados como um depósito sagrado. Vós todos, sem ansiedade, empenhai-vos plenamente em protegê-lo.”
