King Yudhiṣṭhira, the son of Kuntī, blew his conchshell, the Ananta-vijaya, and Nakula and Sahadeva blew the Sughoṣa and Maṇipuṣpaka. That great archer the King of Kāśī, the great fighter Śikhaṇḍī, Dhṛṣṭadyumna, Virāṭa, the unconquerable Sātyaki, Drupada, the sons of Draupadī, and others, O King, such as the mighty-armed son of Subhadrā, all blew their respective conchshells.
O rei Yudhiṣṭhira, filho de Kuntī, soprou seu búzio, o Anantavijaya, e Nakula e Sahadeva sopraram o Sughoṣa e Maṇipuṣpaka. Aquele grande arqueiro, o rei de Kāśī, o grande lutador Śikhaṇḍī, Dhṛṣṭadyumna, Virāṭa, o invencível Sātyaki, Drupada, os filhos de Draupadī, e outros, ó rei, tais como o poderoso filho de Subhadrā, todos sopraram seus respectivos búzios.
Com muito tato, Sañjaya informou ao rei Dhṛtarāṣṭra que sua política imprudente, com a qual ele procurou enganar os filhos de Pāṇḍu e fez de tudo para colocar seus próprios filhos no trono real, não fora muito louvável. Os sinais já indicavam claramente que toda a dinastia Kuru seria morta naquela grande batalha. A começar pelo patriarca Bhīṣma, indo até os netos como Abhimanyu e outros — incluindo reis de muitos Estados do mundo —, todos os que ali se encontravam presentes estavam condenados. Toda a, catástrofe fora produzida pelo rei Dhṛtarāṣṭra, porque ele encorajara a política seguida por seus filhos.
Sañjaya informed King Dhṛtarāṣṭra very tactfully that his unwise policy of deceiving the sons of Pāṇḍu and endeavoring to enthrone his own sons on the seat of the kingdom was not very laudable. The signs already clearly indicated that the whole Kuru dynasty would be killed in that great battle. Beginning with the grandsire, Bhīṣma, down to the grandsons like Abhimanyu and others – including kings from many states of the world – all were present there, and all were doomed. The whole catastrophe was due to King Dhṛtarāṣṭra, because he encouraged the policy followed by his sons.
