प्राप्ता किमर्थं भवती ब्रूहि किं करवामि ते ॥ ५.१४५.१ ॥

Karṇa, surrounded by five brothers you will surely shine, like Brahmā surrounded by the gods at the altar of a great sacrifice.
5.145.12
उपपद्यो गुणैः सर्वैर्ज्येष्ठः श्रेष्ठेषु बन्धुषु ।
सूतपुत्रेति मा शब्दः पार्थस्त्वमसि वीर्यवान् ॥ ५.१४५.१२ ॥
You are endowed with all good qualities and are the eldest among noble kinsmen; let not the word 'son of a charioteer' be spoken. You are the son of Pṛthā, and you are mighty.
