"[At] that time when you all, having overcome [everyone else], surrounded the son of Arjuna [Abhimanyu], relying on the Sindhu king [Jayadratha] — [now] he, in your midst, how [then] is he slain? How, with you and Karna, with Kripa and Shalya alive, and with Ashvatthaman, O Kauravya, did Saindhava come to his death? [That might] of yours, fierce, to which all kings respectfully resort, [meant] to save the Sindhu king — [how then] is he slain in your midst? For on me especially, and so, Duryodhana, on you, that king relied for rescue from Arjuna."

Drona bitterly links two deeds together: you all together surrounded the boy Abhimanyu, relying on Jayadratha — and now Jayadratha himself is slain in your midst. It is telling how this mirrors back: the wrong done against Arjuna's son returns as the death of the one who sheltered behind your backs. The verse teaches that evil done together returns together; and the one on whose protection the guilty relied does not save him — for against injustice not even the fearsome might of many can stand.
