12.32.9

yudhiṣṭhira uvāca |
na te'bhiśaṅke vacanaṃ yadbravīṣi tapodhana |
aparokṣo hi te dharmaḥ sarvadharmabhṛtāṃ vara || 9 ||

"Yudhishthira said, 'I do not doubt the words that fall from thy lips, O thou of great ascetic merit! Everything appertaining to morality and duty is well known to thee, O foremost of all persons conversant with morality and duty! I have, however, for the sake of kingdom, caused many persons to be slain! Those deeds, O Brahmana, are burning and consuming me!'

Kisari Mohan Ganguli 1883, The Mahabharata of Krishna-Dwaipayana Vyasa
