Verse 7.116.5

अविरोधेन धर्मस्य युद्धे संमुखमागतम् ।
योधानुरूपं यो हन्ति शूरः स्वर्ग्यः स नेतरः ॥ ५ ॥

avirodhena dharmasya yuddhe saṃmukhamāgatam |
yodhānurūpaṃ yo hanti śūraḥ svargyaḥ sa netaraḥ || 5 ||

When one kills his opposing corrival in combat, without violation of the laws of warfare, he is justly styled a heavenly champion, and not one who takes undue advantage of his enemy.
