And sixty thousand of these blue-throated gods,
these great-souled blue-throated ones, to whom there is no equal.
These heroes, fierce in power, of fierce and lofty prowess,
will gladden your heart as they fight.
Matching these very Rudras in power,
are the doorkeepers of that very measure, valorous, having conquered wrath.
Thus, having monkey and lion faces, possessing the strength of monkeys and lions in battle,
they will fight with the Dānavas like elephants against elephants.
