I'm not used to translate *into* Sanskrit. Furthermore,
there are prolly lots of possible verbs for 'remain'
in Sanskrit. One would be 'gAdh':
17 gAdh (cf. %{gAh}) cl. 1. A1. %{-dhate} , to stand firmly , stay
, remain Dha1tup. ii , 3 ; to set out for (acc.) Bhat2t2. viii , 1 ;
xxii , 2 ; to desire (cf. %{gardh}) Dha1tup. ; to compile , string
together ib.
I guess your sentence, using 'gAdh', would be:
satyam eva gaadhate.
