Shloka 18
सूर्य उवाच भविष्यति महाबाहु: कुण्डली दिव्यवर्मभृत् | उभयं चामृतमयं तस्य भद्रे भविष्यति,सूर्यने कहा--भद्रे! तुम्हारा पुत्र महाबाहु, कुण्डल-धारी तथा दिव्य कवच धारण करनेवाला होगा। उसके कुण्डल और कवच दोनों अमृतमय होंगे
sūrya uvāca | bhaviṣyati mahābāhuḥ kuṇḍalī divyavarmabhṛt | ubhayaṃ cāmṛtamayaṃ tasya bhadre bhaviṣyati ||
Sabi ni Sūrya: “O mapalad na ginang, ang iyong anak ay magiging makapangyarihan ang mga bisig, may suot na hikaw at may dalang banal na baluti. Kapwa ang kanyang hikaw at baluti ay magiging tulad ng amṛta—hindi tinatablan ng kamatayan.”
