मोचयेयं मृत्युपाशात्संरब्धान्कुरुसृञ्जयान् । पाण्डवान्धार्तराष्ट्रांश्च सर्वां च पृथिवीमिमाम्॥५-७०-८१॥
I would release the enraged Kurus and Sṛñjayas, the Pāṇḍavas and the Dhārtarāṣṭras—and indeed this entire earth—from the noose of death.
english translation
युधिष्ठिर उवाच । न ममैतन्मतं कृष्ण यत्त्वं यायाः कुरून्प्रति । सुयोधनः सूक्तमपि न करिष्यति ते वचः॥५-७०-८२॥
Yudhiṣṭhira said: This is not my view, O Kṛṣṇa, that you should go to the Kurus. Suyodhana will not act upon your words, even if they are well spoken.
english translation
समेतं पार्थिवं क्षत्रं सुयोधनवशानुगम् । तेषां मध्यावतरणं तव कृष्ण न रोचये॥५-७०-८३॥
With the assembled royal warrior-class following Suyodhana’s control, I do not approve, O Kṛṣṇa, of your entering into their midst.
english translation
न हि नः प्रीणयेद्द्रव्यं न देवत्वं कुतः सुखम् । न च सर्वामरैश्वर्यं तव रोधेन माधव॥५-७०-८४॥
For us, no wealth would be pleasing—nor divinity, much less comfort—nor even sovereignty over all the immortals, if it were obtained at the cost of restraining you, O Mādhava.
english translation
भगवानुवाच । जानाम्येतां महाराज धार्तराष्ट्रस्य पापताम् । अवाच्यास्तु भविष्यामः सर्वलोके महीक्षिताम्॥५-७०-८५॥
The Blessed One said: O great king, I know the sinfulness of Dhṛtarāṣṭra’s son. Yet we, the rulers of the earth, would become objects of reproach throughout the whole world.
