All the troubles you have encountered with Draupadi after the game of dice and the harsh words you have had, to listen to, through the son of Suta and all the miseries endured, o illustrious one, through the Asura named Jata and Kichaka-all these unhappiness endured by Draupadi as (unhappiness was endured) by Damayanti-all this trouble, O hero, will give rise to happiness. Do not think that all this is through you, this is done by the fate which has greater control over matters.
यच्च दुःखं त्वया प्राप्तं द्यूते वै कृष्णया सह। परुषाणि च वाक्यानि सूतपुत्रकृतानि वै॥ जटासुरात् परिक्लेश: कीचकाच्च महाद्युते। द्रौपद्याधिगतं सर्वं दमयन्त्या यथाऽशुभम्॥ सर्वं दुःखमिदं वीर सुखोदकं भविष्यति। नात्र मन्युस्त्वया कार्यो विधिर्हि बलवत्तरः॥
