2.30.23

taṃ kṛṣṇaḥ pratyuvācedaṃ bahūktvā guṇavistaram |
tvameva rājaśārdūla samrāḍarho mahākratum |
saṃprāpnuhi tvayā prāpte kṛtakṛtyāstato vayam || 23 ||

Vaisampayana continued,--"Unto Yudhisthira after he had said this, Krishna, extolling his virtues, said.--'Thou, O tiger among kings, deservest imperial dignity. Let, therefore, the great sacrifice be performed by thee. And if thou performest that sacrifice an obtainest its fruit we all shall regard ourselves as crowned with success. I am always engaged in seeking good. Perform thou then the sacrifice thou desirest. Employ me also in some office for that purpose, for I should obey all thy commands. Yudhisthira replied--O Krishna, my resolve is already crowned with fruit, and success also is surely mine, when thou, O Harishikesa, hast arrived here agreeably to my wish!'
