संभूय केचन शुभाशुभमात्मकर्म कुर्वन्ति तस्य सदृशं फलमाप्नुवन्ति ।
संप्राप्नुवन्ति च शिलाशनिवच्च केचिद्दुःखं त्वकारणकमेव सहस्रसंख्याः ॥ ४२ ॥

saṃbhūya kecana śubhāśubhamātmakarma kurvanti tasya sadṛśaṃ phalamāpnuvanti |
saṃprāpnuvanti ca śilāśanivacca kecidduḥkhaṃ tvakāraṇakameva sahasrasaṃkhyāḥ || 42 ||

They who amass for themselves, the merits or demerits of their pious or impious deeds; reap accordingly the good or bad rewards or results thereof in this life. There are others who are crushed under a thousand calamities, falling upon them like showers of hailstones or the thunderbolts of heaven.
