Chapter 1: Arjun Viṣhād Yog(1.34-1.35)

Chapter : 1
āchāryāḥ pitaraḥ putrās tathaiva cha pitāmahāḥ
mātulāḥ śhvaśhurāḥ pautrāḥ śhyālāḥ sambandhinas tathā||34||

etān na hantum ichchhāmi ghnato ’pi madhusūdana
api trailokya-rājyasya hetoḥ kiṁ nu mahī-kṛite||35||

Meaning : There are teachers, fathers, sons, grandfathers, maternal uncles, brothers-in-law, grandsons, and other relatives here.
Even though I am a fighter, O Madhusudana (Krishna), I do not wish to kill them, especially for the sake of a kingdom in this world.
