Mahabharata — Svargarohana Parva, Shloka 12
स्वर्गे दुर्योधनदर्शनम् | Duryodhana Seen in Heaven
Triviṣṭapa
युधिष्ठिर महाबाहो मैवं वोच: कथंचन । दुर्योधनं प्रति नृपं शृणु चेदं वचो मम,“महाबाहु युधिष्छिर! तुम्हें राजा दुर्योधनके प्रति किसी तरह ऐसी बात मुँहसे नहीं निकालनी चाहिये। मेरी इस बातको ध्यान देकर सुनो
Yudhiṣṭhira mahābāho maivaṃ vocaḥ kathaṃcana | Duryodhanaṃ prati nṛpaṃ śṛṇu cedaṃ vaco mama ||
毗舍波耶那说：“大臂的由提施提罗啊，切莫以任何方式对都律约陀那王说出这等言辞。且专心听我所言。”

Educational Q&A
The verse teaches restraint and ethical discipline in speech: even when judging an adversary, one should not utter improper or rash words, especially about a king; instead, one should listen to wise counsel and speak with measured propriety.
Vaiśaṃpāyana addresses Yudhiṣṭhira directly, cautioning him not to say certain things about King Duryodhana and urging him to listen carefully to the instruction that follows.
