yas tūpanatān hatvā baddhvā vā bhūmidravyaputradārān abhimanyeta tasyodvignaṃ maṇḍalam abhāvāyottiṣṭhate //
Whoever covets the lands, things, sons, and wives of the kings whom he has either slain or bound in chains will cause provocation to the Circle of States and make it rise against himself; also his own ministers employed in his own territory will be provoked and will seek shelter under the circle of states, having an eye upon his life and kingdom.
