BAGIAN 29
dn19:29.2 He had a brahmin high priest named the Steward.
dn19:29.3 Disampati’s son was the prince named Reṇu,
dn19:29.4 while the Steward’s son was the student named Jotipāla.
dn19:29.5 There were Reṇu the prince, Jotipāla the student, and six other aristocrats; these eight became friends.
dn19:29.6 In due course the brahmin Steward passed away.
dn19:29.7 At his passing, King Disampati lamented,
dn19:29.8 “At a time when I have relinquished all my duties to the brahmin Steward and amuse myself, supplied and provided with the five kinds of sensual stimulation, he passes away!”
dn19:29.9 When he said this, Prince Reṇu said to him,
dn19:29.10 “Your Majesty, don’t lament too much at the Steward’s passing.
dn19:29.11 He has a son named Jotipāla, who is even more astute and expert than his father.
dn19:29.12 He should manage the affairs that were managed by his father.”
dn19:29.13 “Is that so, my prince?”
dn19:29.14 “That is so, Your Majesty.”
