यश्चैवाप्रतिमो वीर्ये धृष्टकेतुर्महायशाः । दुःसहः समरे क्रुद्धः शैशुपालिर्महारथः । तेन वश्चेदिराजेन पाण्डवा अभ्ययुञ्जत॥५-४९-४१॥

And Dhṛṣṭaketu, of great renown—unmatched in prowess—Śiśupāla’s heir, a great chariot-warrior, formidable when angered in battle: with that king of Cedi as well, the Pāṇḍavas entered the engagement against you.

यः संश्रयः पाण्डवानां देवानामिव वासवः । तेन वो वासुदेवेन पाण्डवा अभ्ययुञ्जत॥५-४९-४२॥

He who is the support of the Pāṇḍavas, like Vāsava (Indra) among the gods—together with that Vāsudeva—the Pāṇḍavas advanced against you.

Likewise, O best of the Bhāratas, Śarabha—the brother of the lord of Cedi—together with Karakarṣa: with those two as well, they advanced against you.

जारासंधिः सहदेवो जयत्सेनश्च तावुभौ । द्रुपदश्च महातेजा बलेन महता वृतः । त्यक्तात्मा पाण्डवार्थाय योत्स्यमानो व्यवस्थितः॥५-४९-४४॥

Jārāsaṃdhi, Sahadeva, and Jayatsena—those two as well—and Drupada of great splendor, surrounded by a mighty host, stood ready to fight, having cast aside personal concerns for the sake of the Pāṇḍavas.

एते चान्ये च बहवः प्राच्योदीच्या महीक्षितः । शतशो यानपाश्रित्य धर्मराजो व्यवस्थितः॥५-४९-४५॥

These, and many other kings from the eastern and northern lands—by the hundreds—having mounted their chariots and taken up their gear, stood arrayed under Dharmarāja (Yudhiṣṭhira).
