Srimad-Bhagavatam: Canto 11 - Chapter 1 - Verse 19


Sanskrit:

संस्तुन्वतो निपतितान् श्रमणानृषींश्चशक्रं च वृत्रवधतस्तमसि प्रविष्टम् ।देवस्त्रियोऽसुरगृहे पिहिता अनाथाजघ्नेऽसुरेन्द्रमभयाय सतां नृसिंहे ॥ १९ ॥

ITRANS:

saṁstunvato nipatitān śramaṇān ṛṣīṁś caśakraṁ ca vṛtra-vadhatas tamasi praviṣṭamdeva-striyo ’sura-gṛhe pihitā anāthājaghne ’surendram abhayāya satāṁ nṛsiṁhe

Translation:

The Lord also delivered the tiny ascetic sages called the Vālakhilyas when they fell into the water in a cow’s hoofprint and Indra was laughing at them. The Lord then saved Indra when Indra was covered by darkness due to the sinful reaction for killing Vṛtrāsura. When the wives of the demigods were trapped in the palace of the demons without any shelter, the Lord saved them. In His incarnation as Nṛsiṁha, the Lord killed Hiraṇyakaśipu, the king of demons, to free the saintly devotees from fear.
