Being obsessed with anger, Hiraṇyakaśipu, who was very great in bodily strength, thus chastised his exalted devotee-son Prahlāda with harsh words. Cursing him again and again, Hiraṇyakaśipu took up his sword, got up from his royal throne, and with great anger struck his fist against the column.

Так разгневанный Хираньякашипу, обладавший огромной силой, ругал своего сына — возвышенного преданного Прахладу. Извергая непрерывные потоки брани, Хираньякашипу взял свой меч, вскочил с царского трона и яростно ударил кулаком по колонне.
