Sanskrit Text

यदि ते प्रतिगृह्णीयुः श्रद्धापूतं युधिष्ठिर कार्यमित्येव मन्वाना धार्मिकाः पुण्यकर्मिणः

English Translation

Righteous men of righteous deeds should make such gifts, moved by the desire that it is their duty to act in that way and not from desire of reaping any regards therefrom. Indeed, good men should act in this way so that the virtuous described above might not, O Yudhishthira, feel any disinclination to accept those gifts sanctified by devotion and faith.
