You are my friend; it is for this and for your welfare that I speak this truth to you. If do you not follow my words, yourself with all your kinsmen, shall be slain in battle by Rāma.
इदं वचो बन्धुहितार्थिना मया यथोच्यमानं यदि नाभिपत्स्यसे। सबान्धवस्त्यक्ष्यसि जीवितं रणे हतोऽद्य रामेण शरैरजिह्मगैः॥
