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

Paliwanag

Arjuna states his refusal in its strongest form. Even if they kill him, he will not kill them, not for the sovereignty of the three worlds, much less for an earthly kingdom. The three worlds are earth, the intermediate space and heaven, the whole of the cosmos as epic thought pictured it. Calling Krishna Madhusudana, slayer of Madhu, again sets the divine destroyer of demons against Arjuna's refusal to destroy his kin. The verse shows that his resolve not to fight is total, not a bargaining position.
