Commentary:
Sampat Endowment, wealthy state, nature, virtue.Moksha Liberation from the bondage of Samsara, release from the round of birth and death. The,divine nature leads to salvation the demoniacl nature, to bondage.As Arjuna was already griefstricken and dejected, Lord Krishna assures him not to feel alarmed at this description of the Asuric alities which bring grief and delusion, as he was born with Sattvic tendencies, leading towards salvation. Arjuna, on hearing the words of Lord Krishna, might have thought within himself, Do I possess divine nature or demoniacal nature The Lord, in order to remove Arjunas doubt, said, Grieve not, O Arjuna, thou art born with divine alities. Thou art fortunate. Thou mayest attain to the happiness of Selfrealisation.Do not think, O Arjuna, that by engaging yourself in battle and killing people you will become an Asura. Grieve not on this score. You will establish the kingdom of righteousness by fighting this righteous battle.

English Translation By Swami Sivananda

16.5 The divine nature is deemed conducive to liberation, and the demoniacal to bondage. Grieve not, O Arjuna, thou art born with divine endowments.

English Translation Of Sri Shankaracharya's Sanskrit Commentary By Swami Gambirananda

16.5 That which is daivi, divine; sampad, nature; is vimoksaya, for Liberation from the bondage of the world. The asuri, demoniacal nature; mata, is considered to be; nibandhaya, for inevitable bondage. So also is the fiendish nature. Now, when such a statement was made, the Lord, noticing Arjuna having this kind of inner cogitation-'Am I endowed with the demoniacal nature, or am I endowed with the divine nature?'-, says: ma, do not; sacah, grieve, O son of Pandu! Asi, you are; abhijatah, destined to have, born with the good fortune of having; daivim, the divine; sampadam, nature; i.e., you are destined for an illustrious future.
