प्रभावं पौरुषं बुद्धिं जिज्ञासन्त्या मया तव । उल्लपन्त्या समाश्वासं बलवानिव दुर्बलम्॥५-१३४-६॥
As I sought to discern your influence, manly resolve, and judgment, I spoke to offer reassurance—like a strong man encouraging one who is weak.
english translation
यद्येतत्संविजानासि यदि सम्यग्ब्रवीम्यहम् । कृत्वासौम्यमिवात्मानं जयायोत्तिष्ठ संजय॥५-१३४-७॥
If you understand this, and if what I say is true, then compose yourself into calmness and rise for victory, Saṃjaya.
english translation
अस्ति नः कोशनिचयो महानविदितस्तव । तमहं वेद नान्यस्तमुपसंपादयामि ते॥५-१३४-८॥
We possess a great reserve of treasure, unknown to you. I know of it—no one else does—and I will secure it for you.
english translation
सन्ति नैकशता भूयः सुहृदस्तव संजय । सुखदुःखसहा वीर शतार्हा अनिवर्तिनः॥५-१३४-९॥
You have not merely hundreds, but more, of well-wishers, Saṃjaya—heroic men who endure both pleasure and hardship, worthy of honor, and not inclined to withdraw.
english translation
तादृशा हि सहाया वै पुरुषस्य बुभूषतः । ईषदुज्जिहतः किंचित्सचिवाः शत्रुकर्शनाः॥५-१३४-१०॥
Such aides are indeed what a man who seeks to thrive requires—ministers who, even when he is only slightly rising, lift him further, and who are capable of constraining adversaries.
