न चैव मापकं किंचिद्धृष्ट शंससि संजय । नित्यं पाण्डुसुतान् हृष्टानभग्नान् सम्प्रशंससि,परंतु सूत! तुमने अभीतक मेरे पक्षमें घटित हुई कोई हर्षकी बात नहीं कही है; उलटे पाण्डवोंको प्रतिदिन हर्षसे पूर्ण और अभग्न (अपराजित) बताते हो
na caiva māpakaṃ kiñcid dṛṣṭaṃ śaṃsasi saṃjaya | nityaṃ pāṇḍusutān hṛṣṭān abhagnān sampraśaṃsasi ||
持国王说道:“然而,三阇耶,你并未禀报任何可让我视为对我方有利的征兆。相反,你日复一日称赞般度之子欢欣而不屈——依旧未败。”
संजय उवाच
The verse highlights how attachment and partisanship shape perception: Dhṛtarāṣṭra longs for reassuring news for his own side, while the narrator’s repeated praise of the Pāṇḍavas underscores their resilience and the moral-psychological tension of hearing unwelcome truth.
Dhṛtarāṣṭra complains to Sañjaya that he has not heard any encouraging report for the Kauravas; instead, Sañjaya keeps describing the Pāṇḍavas as confident and unbroken in the ongoing Kurukṣetra war.
