Srimad-Bhagavatam: Canto 10 - Chapter 1 - Verse 29


Sanskrit:

तन्नो भवान् प्रणतशोकहराङ्‍‍घ्रियुग्मोबद्धान् वियुङ्‍क्ष्व मगधाह्वयकर्मपाशात् ।यो भूभुजोऽयुतमतङ्गजवीर्यमेकोबिभ्रद् रुरोध भवने मृगराडिवावी: ॥ २९ ॥

ITRANS:

tan no bhavān praṇata-śoka-harāṅghri-yugmobaddhān viyuṅkṣva magadhāhvaya-karma-pāśātyo bhū-bhujo ’yuta-mataṅgaja-vīryam ekobibhrad rurodha bhavane mṛga-rāḍ ivāvīḥ

Translation:

Therefore, since Your feet relieve the sorrow of those who surrender to them, please release us prisoners from the shackles of karma, manifest as the King of Magadha. Wielding alone the prowess of ten thousand maddened elephants, he has locked us up in his house just as a lion captures sheep.

Purport:

The kings here pray for the Lord to release them from the bondage of karma created by the Lord’s material potency. The kings make it clear that Jarāsandha is so powerful that there is no hope for them to escape by their own power.
