Sharma / Santhanam:
अथ विक्रमभावस्य फलं वक्ष्यामि भो द्विज । सहजे सौम्ययुग्‌दृष्टे भ्रातृमान्‌ विक्रमी नरः ॥१॥
atha vikramabhāvasya phalaṃ vakṣyāmi bho dvija | sahaje saumyayug‌dṛṣṭe bhrātṛmān‌ vikramī naraḥ ||1||
Translation: Now (atha), I will explain (vakṣyāmi) the effects of the 3rd house (‘the house of valor’) (vikrama-bhāvasya phalaṃ), Oh Brahmin (bho dvija).
If the 3rd house (‘house of siblings’) (sahaje) has the conjunction or aspect of benefic (saumya-yug‌-dṛṣṭe), the person is endowed with brothers and is valorous (bhrātṛmān‌ vikramī naraḥ).

Note: In other editions there is additional option on bhava karaka and strength, there is no 1st line and valorous is not mentioned.

Tara Chandra / Girdhari Lal / Ganesh Datta Pathaka (śl.52):
भ्रातृभे कारके वापि शुभयुक्तनिरीक्षिते । भावे वा बलसंपूर्णे भ्रातृणां वर्धनं भवेत् ॥६३॥
bhrātṛbhe kārake vāpi śubhayuktanirīkṣite | bhāve vā balasaṃpūrṇe bhrātṛṇāṃ vardhanaṃ bhavet ||63||
Translation: If the 3rd house or kāraka of brothers (bhrātṛ-bhe kārake vā-api) is conjoined or aspected by benefic (śubha-yukta-nirīkṣite) or if this house is very strong (bhāve vā balasaṃpūrṇe), it will grant the increase in brothers (bhrātṛṇāṃ vardhanaṃ bhavet).

Suresh Chandra Mishra:
सहजे सौम्ययुग्दृष्टे भावाधीशसमन्विते । सभौमे भ्रातृभावेशे केन्द्रकोणे सुखं भवेत् ॥१॥
sahaje saumyayugdṛṣṭe bhāvādhīśasamanvite | sabhaume bhrātṛbhāveśe kendrakoṇe sukhaṃ bhavet ||1||
Translation: If the 3rd house (‘house of siblings’) is conjoined or aspected by benefic (sahaje saumya-yug-dṛṣṭe) or associated with the 3rd Lord (bhāva-adhīśa-samanvite), or the 3rd Lord is with Mars and situated in the kendra or trikoṇa (sabhaume bhrātṛ-bhāveśe kendra-koṇe), then there will be happiness [pertaining siblings] (sukhaṃ bhavet).

Note: Partially repeats the condition of the next śloka, additionally talks about kendras and trikoṇas.

Sharma / Santhanam / Suresh Chandra Mishra:
सभौमो भ्रातृभावेशो भ्रातृभावं प्रपश्यति । भ्रात्र्क्षेत्रगतो वाऽपि भ्रातृभावं विनिर्दिशेत्‌ ॥२॥
sabhaumo bhrātṛbhāveśo bhrātṛbhāvaṃ prapaśyati | bhrātrkṣetragato vā’pi bhrātṛbhāvaṃ vinirdiśet‌ ||2||
Translation: If the 3rd Lord is with Mars (sa-bhaumo bhrātṛ-bhāveśo) and aspects or conjoins the 3rd house (bhrātṛ-bhāvaṃ prapaśyati bhrātṛ-kṣetra-gato vā’pi), existence and well-being of brothers should be declared (bhrātṛ-bhāvaṃvinirdiśet‌).

Note: Suresh Chandra Mishra: bhrātṛ-bhāvaṃ -> bhrātṛ-saukhyaṃ (“brothers’ happiness”).

Tara Chandra / Girdhari Lal / Ganesha Datta Pathaka (śl.49):
सभौमो भ्रातृभावेशः षडादिषु च न स्थितः । भ्रातृक्षेत्रगतो वापि भ्रातृभावं विनिर्दिशेत् ॥५९॥
sabhaumo bhrātṛbhāveśaḥ ṣaḍādiṣu ca na sthitaḥ | bhrātṛkṣetragato vāpi bhrātṛbhāvaṃ vinirdiśet ||59||
Translation: If (ced) the 3rd Lord is with Mars (sa-bhaumo bhrātṛ-bhāveśo) and not situated in the 6th, 8th or 12th houses (ṣaḍ-ādiṣu ca na sthitaḥ), or if it is in the third house (bhrātṛ-kṣetra-gato vā-api), the existence and well-being of brothers should be declared (bhrātṛ-bhāvaṃvinirdiśet‌).

Note: Ganesha Datta Pathaka: ṣaḍādiṣu ca na sthitaḥ -> trika-bhinnaṃ ca cet sthitaḥ (meaning is the same).

Sharma / Santhanam / Suresh Chandra Mishra / Tara Chandra (śl.60) / Girdhari Lal / Ganesha Datta Pathaka (śl.50):
पापयोगेन तौ पापक्षेत्रयोगेन वा पुनः । उत्पाट्य सहजान्सद्यो निहन्तरौ न संशयः ॥३॥
pāpayogena tau pāpakṣetrayogena vā punaḥ | utpāṭya sahajān‌sadyo nihantarau na saṃśayaḥ ||3||
Translation: If these both (i.e. Mars and 3rd Lord) (tau) are conjoined by malefic (pāpa-yogena) or even in the malefic sign (pāpa-kṣetra-yogena vā punaḥ), they will be two destroyers (nihantarau) extirpating/banishing/splitting the siblings (utpāṭya sahajān) soon (sadyo), without doubt(na saṃśayaḥ).

Note 1: Chandra / Lal / Pathaka: pāpayogena tau -> tau pāpayogataḥ (meaning is the same); nihantarau na saṃśayaḥ -> nihantā śāstraniścayāt (“destroyer/destruction, this is certainly said in Śāstras” – meaning is similar).
Note 2: The Sun is not considered here among malefics since it is not pāpa.
nihantṛ a killer, murderous, who or what kills.

Translation: If (yadi) the 3rd Lord is a female planet (strī-graho bhrātṛ-bhāveśaḥ) and a female planet is placed in the 3rd house (strī-graho bhrātṛ-bhāva-gaḥ) then [the person] will have a sister (bhaginī syāt‌ tathā), [the one will have] a brother if a male planet is in the 3rd house lorded by a male planet (bhrātā puṃgṛhe puṃgraho).
If there are both male and female planets, they will give mixed results (miśre miśra-phalaṃ) which are to be declared (vācyaṃ) based on strength and weakness rule (bala-abala-vinirṇayāt).

Note: Chandra / Lal / Pathaka: bhrātṛ-bhāva-gaḥ -> bhrātṛ-go’pi vā (similar meaning); tathā -> tadā (similar meaning); bala-abala-vinirṇayāt -> bala-abala-vinirṇayaḥ (similar meaning).

Tara Chandra / Girdhari Lal:
नाशस्थितौ सोदरनाथभौमौपापेक्षितौ सोदरनाशमाहुः। पापेक्षितौ पापसमन्वितौवा त्रिसप्तविद्याप्रविनाशहे तु ॥६२॥
nāśasthitau sodaranāthabhaumau pāpekṣitau sodaranāśamāhuḥ |

If both are aspected by malefic (pāpa-īkṣitau) or conjoined by malefic (pāpa-samanvitau), this is cause of destruction of 21 knowledges (tri-sapta-vidyā-pravināśa-hetuḥ).

Ganesha Datta Pathaka:
No such śloka

Note: tri-sapta = 3x7 = 21, trisapta means in general the whole Universe.
