[Dhritarashtra:] "Then spoke the wise Vidura, knower of all dharmas: 'This is your end, O Bharatas — that Krishna has come into the assembly. She is the incomparable Shri, daughter of the king of Panchala; Panchali, sent by the gods, approaches these Pandavas as their blessing. Her degradation the Parthas, intolerant of insult, will not forgive, nor the Vrishnis, great archers, nor the Panchalas, men of great might. Protected by the truly faithful Vasudeva and guarded by the Panchalas, Bibhatsu will come; and among them the great archer Bhimasena, of immense strength, will come, brandishing his mace, like Antaka his staff.'"

Dhritarashtra recalls Vidura's prophecy, in which Draupadi is called Shri herself — the Fortune of the house, sent by heaven: those who trampled her rejected their own good fortune, for the well-being of a house rests on the pure and devoted woman within it. Vidura also points to the hidden support of the Pandavas: they are "protected by the truly faithful Vasudeva" — by the Lord Himself, whose protection makes them unconquerable. Thus the retribution to come will be not merely the vengeance of the offended, but the working of divine protection. The verse teaches that the violation of righteous purity is the banishment of Fortune from the house; that those protected by the Supreme are unconquerable, however strong their persecutors; and that whoever rejects the grace sent by heaven brings ruin upon himself, for he sets himself against the will of the Protector.
