यद्ययं प्रतियुद्ध्येत् त्वां स्वकर्म क्षत्रियस्य तत्। जिगीषमाणस्त्वां युद्धे पितृपैतामहे पदे॥ त्वं चापि प्रतियुद्ध्येथा विजिगीषुव्रते स्थितः। अयुध्वैव नियोगान्मे वशे कुरु हिते स्थितः॥

Without engaging in battle, however, do you, at my behest, employ him under you from desire of benefiting yourself.
