निकृत्या निकृताः पार्था विषयोगैश् च भारत ॥
दग्धा जतुगृहे चापि द्यूतेन च पराजिताः ॥
राजनीतिं व्यपाश्रित्य प्रहिताश् चैव काननम् ॥
यत्नेन च कृतं यत् ते दैवेन विनिपातितम् ॥
युध्यस्व यत्नम् आस्थाय मृत्युं कृत्वा निवर्तनम् ॥
यततस् तव तेषां च दैवं मार्गेण यास्यति ॥
nikṛtyā nikṛtāḥ pārthā viṣayogaiś ca bhārata ||
dagdhā jatugṛhe cāpi dyūtena ca parājitāḥ ||
rājanītiṃ vyapāśritya prahitāś caiva kānanam ||
yatnena ca kṛtaṃ yat te daivena vinipātitam ||
yudhyasva yatnam āsthāya mṛtyuṃ kṛtvā nivartanam ||
yatatas tava teṣāṃ ca daivaṃ mārgeṇa yāsyati ||
'By deceit the Parthas were deceived, and by poisons, O Bharata, and burned in the house of lac, and defeated [in] the dice game; having resorted to [treacherous] policy, they were sent into the forest. And what was done by you through effort was overthrown by fate. Fight, having exerted effort, making death your own limit; [but] for you, as you strive, and for them, fate will go its own way.'

Karna reminds him: every scheme was tried to destroy the Pandavas — poison, fire, the dice game — and fate overthrew them all. It is telling that his conclusion is not 'surrender' but 'fight, making death your limit': perform your duty, entrust the outcome to destiny. The verse teaches that neither cunning nor effort commands the outcome; and valor lies not in forcing victory, but in fighting to the end, leaving to fate its own course.
