"आशुतरा मे वृद्धिर् भूयस्तरा वृद्ध्य् उदयतरा वा भविष्यति, विपरीता परस्य" इति ज्ञात्वा पर वृद्धिम् उपेक्षेत ॥
Whoever thinks himself to be growing in power more rapidly both in quality and quantity (than his enemy), and the reverse of his enemy, may neglect his enemy's progress for the time. If any two kings hostile to each other find the time of achieving the results of their respective works to be equal, they shall make peace with each other.
english translation

hk transliteration by Sanscriptतुल्य काल फल उदयायां वा वृद्धौ संधिम् उपेयात् ॥
No king shall keep that form of policy, which causes him the loss of profit from his own works, but which entails no such loss on the enemy; for it is deterioration.

Whoever thinks that in the course of time his loss will be less than his acquisition as contrasted with that of his enemy, may neglect his temporary deterioration. If any two kings hostile to each other and deteriorating, expect to acquire equal amount of wealth in equal time, they shall make peace with each other.
