Shloka 41
ईप्सितं ते करिष्यामि दृष्टं होतत् सनातनम् । भ्रातुः पुत्रान् प्रदास्यामि मित्रावरुणयो: समान्
īpsitaṃ te kariṣyāmi dṛṣṭaṃ hotat sanātanam | bhrātuḥ putrān pradāsyāmi mitrāvaruṇayoḥ samān
Вьяса сказал: «Я исполню желаемое тобой, согласно древнему, освящённому временем установлению, которое было явлено и соблюдалось. Я дарую тебе сыновей, подобных сыновьям Митры и Варуны, равных им в превосходстве.»

The verse frames the fulfillment of a personal desire within “sanātana” (time-honored) dharma: even extraordinary acts like granting progeny are presented as legitimate when aligned with established ethical-ritual precedent and aimed at preserving rightful lineage and social order.
Vyāsa promises to fulfill the request for offspring, assuring that he will provide sons—specifically the brother’s sons—who will be comparable to the famed sons associated with the divine pair Mitra and Varuṇa, emphasizing their exceptional quality and legitimacy.
