सर्वथा तु महत्कर्म करिष्यति बलोत्कटः । राक्षसः पुत्रसहितो दृष्टमेतन्निसर्गतः ॥ 7-27-16 ॥
In every way this rakshasa, swollen with strength and accompanied by his sons, will perform a mighty deed; this has been seen as something inherent in his nature.

यत्तु मां त्वमभाषिष्ठ युद्ध्यस्वेति सुरेश्वर । नाहं तं प्रतियोत्स्यामि रावणं राक्षसं युधि ॥ 7-27-17 ॥
As for what you said to me, O lord of the gods, 'Do battle,' I shall not fight against this rakshasa Ravana in combat now.

नाहत्वा समरे शत्रुं विष्णुः प्रतिनिवर्तते । दुर्लभश्चैव कामो ऽद्य वरगुप्ताद्धि रावणात् ॥ 7-27-18 ॥
Vishnu does not turn back from battle without having slain his enemy, and this desire of yours is hard to fulfill today against Ravana, who is protected by a boon.

प्रतिजाने च देवेन्द्र त्वत्समीपे शतक्रतो । भविता ऽस्मि यथा ऽस्याहं रक्षसो मृत्युकारणम् ॥ 7-27-19 ॥

अहमेव निहन्ता ऽस्मि रावणं सपुरःसरम् । देवता नन्दयिष्यामि ज्ञात्वा कालमुपागतम् । एतत्ते कथितं तत्त्वं देवराज शचीपते ॥ 7-27-20 ॥
I myself shall be the slayer of Ravana together with his vanguard, and I shall gladden the gods, knowing when the time has come. This is the truth I have told you, O king of the gods, O lord of Shachi.
