To him Krishna, having said much about his abundance of virtues, replied thus: "You alone, tiger among kings, are worthy, as sovereign, of the great sacrifice; perform the desired sacrifice. I stand here for your good — assign me to any task, and I shall do all according to your word." [Yudhishthira replied:] "Fruitful, Krishna, is my resolve, and success is assured for me, since you, Hrishikesha, stand before me as I desired."

Wondrous are the Lord's words: "assign me also to any task — I shall do all according to your word." It is telling that the Supreme, whom the whole universe serves, places Himself at the disposal of His devotee, ready for any errand. This is the summit of love's descent: the Master becomes the servant of His own servant. And Yudhishthira's answer is precise: success is assured not by his own strength but by the fact that Krishna Himself "stands before" him. The verse teaches that where the Lord serves of His own will, an undertaking cannot fail; and blessed is he who has won such love that the Supreme Himself takes up the labor at his word.
