निर्दग्धं भीमसेनेन सैन्यं हतरथद्विपम् । गतिमग्नेरिव प्रेक्ष्य स्मर्तासि वचनस्य मे॥५-५७-२६॥

When you see the host scorched by Bhīmasena—its chariots and elephants struck down—like the onward surge of fire, you will remember my words.

english translation

महद्वो भयमागामि न चेच्छाम्यथ पाण्डवैः । गदया भीमसेनेन हताः शममुपैष्यथ॥५-५७-२७॥

A great fear will come upon you, and I do not wish that, through conflict with the Pāṇḍavas, you be struck down by Bhīmasena’s mace and pass into the stillness of death.

english translation

महावनमिव छिन्नं यदा द्रक्ष्यसि पातितम् । बलं कुरूणां संग्रामे तदा स्मर्तासि मे वचः॥५-५७-२८॥

When you behold the Kuru host in battle cut down and brought low like a great forest felled, then you will remember my words.

english translation

वैशंपायन उवाच । एतावदुक्त्वा राजा तु स सर्वान्पृथिवीपतीन् । अनुभाष्य महाराज पुनः पप्रच्छ संजयम्॥५-५७-२९॥

Vaiśaṃpāyana said: Having spoken thus much, the king addressed all those rulers of the earth; and, O great king, he again questioned Sañjaya.
