I have two copies, though I can only find one at the moment.

The one I'm looking at is a translation by A.C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada

What I have in chapter 4.36 is this:

I also have a translation by Paramahansa Yogananda, but I can not seem to locate it right now.

What I will say is this. All translations of the original Sanskrit seem to lose something. Also the Bhagavad Gita and Indian religious text in general were always written in obscure parables and are meant to be interpreted by a teacher. For example the text I quoted above is followed by the words of the swamie:

dang it I wish I could find my other version. I'd like to see what Paramahansa has to say about this verse.
