शक्तिमान् हि पार्ष्णिग्रहणे यात्रासाहाय्यदाने वा शक्तः शुचिः सिद्धौ चासिद्धौ च यथास्थितकारीति ॥ कZ_०७.५.३९ ॥
śaktimān hi pārṣṇigrahaṇe yātrāsāhāyyadāne vā śaktaḥ śuciḥ siddhau cāsiddhau ca yathāsthitakārīti
因为有能力的伙伴,是能夺取敌之后方(或守住后方)或提供出征援助的人;是可信赖的人;并且无论事业成败都能一贯按其本分行事的人。
An ally should not renegotiate or defect when conditions change; steadiness across outcomes is the test of alliance credibility.
