He who with supreme devotion to Me will teach this supreme secret to My devotees, shall doubtlessly come to Me.

Whoever teaches this supreme secret to my devotees, having shown the highest devotion to me, will without doubt come to me.

In contrast, whoever teaches this supreme secret to devotees, out of the highest devotion to Krishna, will certainly come to him. Sharing the teaching is itself presented as a form of devotion (bhakti). The verse honours the role of the teacher who passes the wisdom on. It suggests that the Gita is meant to live through transmission, from one sincere person to another, and that those who keep it alive serve the divine.
