धृतराष्ट्र उवाच । पृच्छामि त्वां संजय राजमध्ये किमब्रवीद्वाक्यमदीनसत्त्वः । धनंजयस्तात युधां प्रणेता दुरात्मनां जीवितच्छिन्महात्मा ॥५-४७-१॥
Dhṛtarāṣṭra said: “I ask you, Sañjaya, in the midst of the kings: what words did the resolute Dhanañjaya utter? He is a leader in the arts of battle, a great-souled man who cuts short the lives of the wicked.”

संजय उवाच । दुर्योधनो वाचमिमां शृणोतु यदब्रवीदर्जुनो योत्स्यमानः । युधिष्ठिरस्यानुमते महात्मा धनंजयः शृण्वतः केशवस्य॥५-४७-२॥
Sañjaya said: “Let Duryodhana hear these words that Arjuna spoke, ready for battle—words spoken by the great-souled Dhanañjaya with Yudhiṣṭhira’s consent, while Keśava listened.”

अन्वत्रस्तो बाहुवीर्यं विदान उपह्वरे वासुदेवस्य धीरः । अवोचन्मां योत्स्यमानः किरीटी मध्ये ब्रूया धार्तराष्ट्रं कुरूणाम्॥५-४७-३॥
“Steadfast, knowing the strength of his own arms, and composed in Vāsudeva’s presence, the diademed warrior—ready for battle—said to me: ‘In the assembly, speak to Dhārtarāṣṭra in the midst of the Kurus.’”

ये वै राजानः पाण्डवायोधनाय समानीताः शृण्वतां चापि तेषाम् । यथा समग्रं वचनं मयोक्तं सहामात्यं श्रावयेथा नृपं तम्॥५-४७-४॥
When those kings have been assembled for the Pāṇḍavas’ strategic engagement, and while they too are listening, you should have that king—together with his ministers—hear in full the message spoken by me.

यथा नूनं देवराजस्य देवाः शुश्रूषन्ते वज्रहस्तस्य सर्वे । तथाशृण्वन्पाण्डवाः सृञ्जयाश्च किरीटिना वाचमुक्तां समर्थाम्॥५-४७-५॥
Just as all the gods attend upon the lord of the gods, the wielder of the thunderbolt, so too the Pāṇḍavas and the Sṛñjayas listened to the capable speech spoken by the diademed one (Arjuna).
