[[Karagaeth]] is recorded as a noun, so a more literal translation would be "necessary punishment", unless it is intended to be a verb/noun double. However, in either case, the intended meaning seems closer to "must punish".
For marath karagaeth "must punish" is the literal meaning of that line, or perhaps "mandate to punish", which connects loosely to "purpose, punishment".
