Translation
The servants of the demigods reached the assembly of Indra, and thus, while all the residents of the three heavens listened, they explained to Indra the supreme power of Nārāyaṇa. When Indra heard of Nara-Nārāyaṇa Ṛṣi and became aware of his offense, he was both frightened and astonished.
Translation (Visvanatha Cakravarti Thakura)
The servants of the devatās, bowing to Indra in the assembly, described the power of Nārāyaṇa while the residents listened. Indra became astonished by this.
Indra became afraid, thinking, “I have committed an offense.”
