जयद्रथस्य कर्णस्य तथा दुःशासनस्य च । सौबलस्य च दुर्बुद्ध्या मिथोभेदः प्रवर्तते॥५-१४२-६॥
Through the misguided judgment of Jayadratha, Karṇa, Duḥśāsana, and Saubala (Śakuni), mutual division is being set in motion.
english translation
अधर्मेण हि धर्मिष्ठं हृतं वै राज्यमीदृशम् । येषां तेषामयं धर्मः सानुबन्धो भविष्यति॥५-१४२-७॥
For by adharma the kingdom has been taken from one who is most devoted to dharma. For those responsible, this ‘dharma’—their chosen course—will bear consequences that follow on from it.
english translation
ह्रियमाणे बलाद्धर्मे कुरुभिः को न संज्वरेत् । असाम्ना केशवे याते समुद्योक्ष्यन्ति पाण्डवाः॥५-१४२-८॥
When dharma is being forcibly carried off by the Kurus, who would not be distressed? And when Keśava (Kṛṣṇa) has gone without securing an agreement, the Pāṇḍavas will undertake preparations.
english translation
ततः कुरूणामनयो भविता वीरनाशनः । चिन्तयन्न लभे निद्रामहःसु च निशासु च॥५-१४२-९॥
Thereafter, this course of the Kurus will result in the loss of many warriors. Thinking on it, I find no sleep—neither by day nor by night.
english translation
श्रुत्वा तु कुन्ती तद्वाक्यमर्थकामेन भाषितम् । अनिष्टनन्ती दुःखार्ता मनसा विममर्श ह॥५-१४२-१०॥
But when Kuntī heard those words—spoken with a view to purpose and welfare—she, distressed and not desiring an unfavorable outcome, reflected upon them in her mind.
