तस्मान् न उत्पादयेद् एनान् दोषान् मित्र उपघातकान् ॥ उत्पन्नान् वा प्रशमयेद् गुणैर् दोष उपघातिभिः ॥

Or who is frightened at the destruction of another friend, or who is apprehensive of danger from the combination of enemies, or who is made by traitors to give up his friendship,--it is possible to acquire such a friend; and if acquired, he keeps up his friendship.

english translation

tasmAn na utpAdayed enAn doSAn mitra upaghAtakAn ॥ utpannAn vA prazamayed guNair doSa upaghAtibhiH ॥
