In this war, have I preferred the help of Vasudeva to Indra with the thunderbolt in his hand. That Krishna has come over to my side for the purpose of slaying these wicked men. This I consider has been ordained by the gods.
दस्मिन् युद्धे वासुदेवं सहायम्। स मे लब्धो दस्युवधाय कृष्णो मन्ये चैतद् विहितं दैवतैर्मे॥
