Srimad-Bhagavatam: Canto 10 - Chapter 1 - Verse 19


Sanskrit:

भगवन् श्रोतुमिच्छामि कृष्णस्यामिततेजस: ।यथा मागधशाल्वादीन् जित्वा कन्यामुपाहरत् ॥ १९ ॥

ITRANS:

bhagavan śrotum icchāmikṛṣṇasyāmita-tejasaḥyathā māgadha-śālvādīnjitvā kanyām upāharat

Translation:

My lord, I wish to hear how the immeasurably powerful Lord Kṛṣṇa took away His bride while defeating such kings as Māgadha and Sālva.

Purport:

We should not think that Śrī Kṛṣṇa was actually afraid of Jarāsandha. In the very next chapter we will find that Śrī Kṛṣṇa easily defeats Jarāsandha and his soldiers. Thus we should never doubt the supreme prowess of Lord Kṛṣṇa.
