English Scholarly Translation
O subduer of enemies, one should be versed in various branches of learning as well as be masterful in war. (According to a different reading, the meaning would be, “You are competent to fight agreeably to the rules.") He that craves victory in fight, should be acquainted with various branches of knowledge. (The śloka is very difficult and incapable of interpretation without at places meanings being read into it.)
