कुटुम्बार्थे ऽअध्यधीनो ऽअपि व्यवहारं यम् आचरेत्) । स्वदेशे वा विदेशे वा तं ज्यायान् न विचालयेत्) ॥

Devanagari rendered by HREEM from the edition's roman (IAST) text; the IAST is the edition's own.

Should even a person wholly dependent make a contract for the behoof of the family, the master (of the house), whether (living) in his own country or abroad, shall not rescind it.

Translated by Georg BühlerFrom an unproofread scan of the printed edition; spelling and line breaks may carry OCR errors.
