एवं परस्परजयाज्जयत्यत्रातिवीयेवान् ।
तस्माच्छुभेन यत्नेन शुभाभ्यासमुदाहरेत् ॥ ३९ ॥

evaṃ parasparajayājjayatyatrātivīyevān |
tasmācchubhena yatnena śubhābhyāsamudāharet || 39 ||

And as the stronger man gains the better of his adversary, so the later acts of piety drive away the former impiety from the spirit. Therefore the constant practice of pious acts is strictly enjoined in the Sastras.
