Sanskrit Original
न चापि गूढं द्रव्यं ते ग्राह्यं कार्योपघातकम्। कार्ये खलु विपन्ने त्वां सोधर्मस्तांश्च पॆदयेत्॥ विद्रवेच्चैव राष्ट्रं ते श्येनात् पक्षिगणा इव। परिस्नवेच्च सततं नौर्विशीर्णेव सागरे॥

You should never confiscate what is deposited with you or appropriate the thing whose ownership is disputed by two persons. Such a conduct would spoil the administration of justice. If the administration of justice be thus spoiled will assail you, and afflict your kingdom as well and strike your people with fear as little birds on seeing the hawk. Your kingdom will then vanish like a boat wrecked on the sea.
