Translation
Sanjaya said:
Having heard this speech of Sri Krishna, Arjuna [the crowned one] prostrated himself and trembling with awe, he bowed down again, and with cupped-palms, and trembling, he spoke to Krishna in a choked voice.
Arjuna said:
Rightly it is, O Krishna, that the world is delighted and rejoices in singing Your praise. The terrified demons (Rakshasas) flee in all directions, and all the hosts of the perfected ones (Siddhas) bow down to You.
Purport
Hearing such profound and chilling revelations from Shri Krishna that he himself is the Lord of death and that he has come here to destroy and that all those warriors like Dranacharya, Bheesma, Karna, Jayadratha, etc are already slain by him and Arjuna fighting the war is just a formality.
No matter if Arjuna fights this war or not, the result is going to be the same. Hearing this Arjuna bows down to Shri Krishna and praises HIm(Shri Krishna) again and again. Arjuna also reveals what he saw that all pious living beings are praising Shri Krishna and all miscreants are running away in fear.
These words of Shri Krishna is also the affirmation of what he has declared in Chapter 4, that he incarnated to protect the pious and destroy the wrongdoers
Paritranaya sadhunam, Vinashaya cha tushkritam,
dharma santhapnarthaya, sambhavami yuge yuge.
For the protection of the pious and the society, and to annihilate the wrongdoers, as well as to reestablish religion and righteousness, I manifest Myself, era after era.
--Ch4:Sh8.
