Bhagavad Gita 1.35

एतान्न हन्तुमिच्छामि घ्नतोऽपि मधुसूदन।अपि त्रैलोक्यराज्यस्य हेतोः किं नु महीकृते॥

etānna hantumicchāmi ghnato'pi madhusūdana |api trailokyarājyasya hetoḥ kiṃ nu mahīkṛte ||

These I do not wish to kill, O Krishna, even though they kill me, for the sake of dominion over the three worlds; leave alone killing them for the sake of the earth."

I would not kill them, even for three worlds; why then for this earth alone? It matters not if I myself am killed.

Our plain-language meaning of this verse is waiting for scholar review.
