Krishna answers the prayer with an act, not a word of comfort: "ahaṃ ca tat kariṣyāmi", "and I will do that." It is significant that the Lord speaks of His own part in Arjuna's victory: the devotee acts, but God acts through him -- "yathā... arjunaḥ dhakṣyati", "so that Arjuna burns." Retribution for the evildoer is spoken of as already accomplished. The verse teaches that the devotee's prayer meets not empty consolation but a promise of action: the Lord Himself undertakes to shape the outcome; and the victory of the faithful is a joint work -- his valor and God's will, inseparably joined.
