सर्वे यूयं महाभागा गन्धर्वाश् चैव सर्वशः ॥
यद् ब्रूत तच् छ्रुतं सर्वं ममापि शृणुतानघाः ॥
संधिः कथं वै भविता मम शक्रस्य चोभयोः ॥
तेजसोर् हि द्वयोर् देवाः सख्यं वै भविता कथम् ॥
ऋषय ऊचुः
सकृत् सतां संगतं लिप्सितव्यं; ततः परं भविता भव्यम् एव ॥
नातिक्रमेत् सत्पुरुषेण संगतं; तस्मात् सतां संगतं लिप्सितव्यम् ॥
दृढं सतां संगतं चापि नित्यं; ब्रूयाच् चार्थं ह्य् अर्थकृच्छ्रेषु धीरः ॥
महार्थवत् सत्पुरुषेण संगतं; तस्मात् सन्तं न जिघांसेत धीरः ॥
इन्द्रः सतां संमतश् च निवासश् च महात्मनाम् ॥
सत्यवादी ह्य् अदीनश् च धर्मवित् सुविनिश्चितः ॥

This is a desirable object. What follows thereafter will be what is destined. One should not forgo the chance to form friendship with a righteous man. Therefore the friendship of the righteous should be sought. The friendship of the righteous is like excellent wealth, for the wise will give counsel when it is needed. The friendship of a good man is of great benefit; therefore a wise man should not wish to kill a righteous one. Indra is honored by the righteous; he is a refuge for magnanimous people; he is truthful and blameless, knows what virtue is, and possesses refined judgment. Let there be eternal friendship between you and Indra, as described above. Thus, trust (in him); let your heart not incline otherwise.'
