Therefore you should here make peace with Dharmaputra; let the Pāṇḍavas and the Kurus together govern the earth.

न बलं बलिनां मध्ये बलं भवति कौरव । बलवन्तो हि ते सर्वे पाण्डवा देवविक्रमाः॥५-९५-१०॥
O Kaurava, one’s strength does not remain ‘strength’ among the strong; for all those Pāṇḍavas are powerful, possessing prowess like that of the gods.
