बाहुभ्यां योक्त्रयित्वा तं बलवान् पाण्डुनन्दन: । मध्ये भड़्क्त्वा महाबाहुर्हर्षयामास पाण्डवान्,तब महाबाहु बलवान् पाण्डुनन्दन भीमसेनने उसे दोनों भुजाओंसे बाँधकर उलटा मोड़ दिया और उसकी कमर तोड़कर पाण्डवोंका हर्ष बढ़ाया
bāhubhyāṁ yoktrayitvā taṁ balavān pāṇḍunandanaḥ | madhye bhaṅktvā mahābāhur harṣayāmāsa pāṇḍavān ||
แล้วภีมเสนะ โอรสแห่งปาณฑุผู้มีกำลังและแขนใหญ่ ใช้สองแขนรัดตรึงมันไว้ บิดงอไปด้านหลังและหักกลางเอว ทำให้เหล่าปาณฑพยิ่งชื่นบาน
