संप्रेक्ष्य बाणान् निहतांस् तदानीं; सुदर्शनः सात्यकिबाणवेगैः ॥
क्रोधाद् दिधक्षन्न् इव तिग्मतेजाः; शरान् अमुञ्चत् तपनीयचित्रान् ॥
पुनः स बाणैस् त्रिभिर् अग्निकल्पैर्; आकर्णपूर्णैर् निशितैः सुपुङ्खैः ॥

Seeing his arrows struck down by the speed of Satyaki's shafts, Sudarshana, blazing, as though wishing to burn him from wrath, loosed gold-adorned arrows. Again with three fire-like arrows, drawn to the ear, sharp, well-feathered, he struck, piercing the body-armor; they entered Satyaki's body.

Sudarshana's arrows pierce the armor and enter Satyaki's body: the faithful one again takes wounds on the path toward his friend. It is telling that the Lord's instrument is not spared pain. The verse teaches that even one who knows himself a tool in God's hand pays for the deed with his own flesh: humility before the Lord does not cancel the price of service, and the devotee bears wounds without retreat, for the body is vulnerable, but the will surrendered to the Highest is not.
