बेचहिँ बेद धरम दुहि लेहीं । पिसुन पराय पाप कहि देहीं ॥
कपटी कुटिल कलह-प्रिय क्रोधी । बेद-विदूषक बिस्व-बिरोधी ॥
becahim̐ beda dharama duhi lehīṃ | pisuna parāya pāpa kahi dehīṃ ||
kapaṭī kuṭila kalaha-priya krodhī | beda-vidūṣaka bisva-birodhī ||

What happens in this chapter
The oath continues and Kaushalya's verdict
The oath runs on. Those who sell the Vedas and milk dharma for gain, who spread others' sins, the deceitful and quarrelsome who mock the Vedas, the greedy who eye another's wealth and wife: may I go their dreadful way if I consented. Those who shun the company of saints, who gain a human body and still do not worship Hari, who find no joy in the glory of Hari and Hara, who leave the path of the Shruti and cheat the world in a false garb: may Shankara give me their fate, mother, if I knew of this. Kaushalya hears his true, simple words and says, child, you have always been dear to Rama in word, mind and body.
लोभी लम्पट लोलुपचारा । जे ताकहिं परधनु परदारा ॥
पावउँ मैं तिन्ह कै गति घोरा । जौं जननी यह सम्मत मोरा ॥
lobhī lampaṭa lolupacārā | je tākahiṃ paradhanu paradārā ||
pāvaum̐ maiṃ tinha kai gati ghorā | jauṃ jananī yaha sammata morā ||
जे नहिं साधु-सङ्ग अनुरागे । परमारथ-पथ बिमुख अभागे ॥
जे न भजहिँ हरि नर-तनु पाई । जिन्हहिं न हरि-हर-सुजस सुहाई ॥
je nahiṃ sādhu-saṅga anurāge | paramāratha-patha bimukha abhāge ||
je na bhajahim̐ hari nara-tanu pāī | jinhahiṃ na hari-hara-sujasa suhāī ||
तजि खुति-पन्थ बाम-पथ चलहीं । बञ्चक बिरचि बेष जग छलहीं ॥
तिन्ह कइ गति मोहि सङ्कर देऊ । जननी जी यह जानउँ भेऊ ॥
taji khuti-pantha bāma-patha calahīṃ | bañcaka biraci beṣa jaga chalahīṃ ||
tinha kai gati mohi saṅkara deū | jananī jī yaha jānaum̐ bheū ||
मातु भरत के बचन सुनि, साँचे सरल सुभायँ ।
कहति राम-प्रिय तात तुम्ह, सदा बचन मन कायँ ॥
mātu bharata ke bacana suni, sām̐ce sarala subhāyam̐ |
kahati rāma-priya tāta tumha, sadā bacana mana kāyam̐ ||
