Bali, the Daitya King, was without an issue; for he was bound by the Mahâtmâ \[in bonds of captivity.\] But, as he was a great Yogî, he took birth in human body as Bali, the son of Sutapâ, and procured five Kṣetraja sons for himself. These were Aṅga, Vaṅga, Suhma, Puṇḍra and Kaliṅga, and their country is called Bâleya. The Bâleyas and the Brâhmaṇas were the sons of that lord Bali.”—23-25. > — A Taluqdar of Oudh 1916, The Matsya Puranam - [Previous: 48.23](https://indike.org/pramana/in.purana.matsya.48.23) - [Next: 48.25](https://indike.org/pramana/in.purana.matsya.48.25) - [Up: 48](https://indike.org/pramana/in.purana.matsya.48) ## Translations (2) - [The Matsya Puranam](https://indike.org/pramana/in.purana.matsya~en-taluqdar.48.p14) — A Taluqdar of Oudh 1916, English - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.purana.matsya~en-mt.48.24) — English, machine translation ## Linked texts (2) - [Matsya](https://indike.org/pramana/in.astro.samhita.matsya.47.24) — Sanskrit - [The History of Bengal (Vol. I: Hindu Period; Vol. II: Muslim Period 1200–1757)](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.general.majumdar-sarkar-1943.v1.c18.s2.3) — R.
