ततः श्रुतायुर्बलवान्भीमाय निशिताञ्शरान् । प्रेषयामास संक्रुद्धो दर्शयन्पाणिलाघवम्॥६-५०-६६॥

Then the powerful Śrutāyus, enraged, shot keen arrows at Bhīma, displaying swift mastery of hand.

english translation

स कार्मुकवरोत्सृष्टैर्नवभिर्निशितैः शरैः । समाहतो भृशं राजन्कलिङ्गेन महायशाः । संचुक्रुधे भृशं भीमो दण्डाहत इवोरगः॥६-५०-६७॥

O King, the illustrious Bhīma was struck hard by nine keen arrows loosed from an excellent bow by the Kaliṅga; and Bhīma grew fiercely enraged, like a serpent smitten with a staff.

english translation

क्रुद्धश्च चापमायम्य बलवद्बलिनां वरः । कलिङ्गमवधीत्पार्थो भीमः सप्तभिरायसैः॥६-५०-६८॥

Enraged, the mighty Bhīma—foremost among the strong—drew his bow and brought down the Kaliṅga leader with seven iron arrows.

क्षुराभ्यां चक्ररक्षौ च कलिङ्गस्य महाबलौ । सत्यदेवं च सत्यं च प्राहिणोद्यमसादनम्॥६-५०-६९॥

With razor-headed arrows, he dispatched to the abode of Yama the two powerful wheel-guards of the Kaliṅga, and also Satyadeva and Satya.

english translation

ततः पुनरमेयात्मा नाराचैर्निशितैस्त्रिभिः । केतुमन्तं रणे भीमोऽगमयद्यमसादनम्॥६-५०-७०॥

Then again, the immeasurable-souled Bhīma, with three sharp nārāca arrows, sent Ketumat to Yama’s abode in the engagement.
