Translation
Thus the two associates of Lord Viṣṇu who had become Hiraṇyākṣa and Hiraṇyakaśipu, the sons of Diti, were both killed. By illusion they had thought that the Supreme Lord, who is situated in everyone’s heart, was their enemy.
Translation (Visvanatha Cakravarti Thakura)
Thus the two associates of Lord Viṣṇu who had become the sons of Diti, thinking of the Lord as their enemy, were killed by the Lord who was situated in their hearts.
The question had been asked how it was possible for Śiśupāla and Dantavakra to attain sāyujya. Thus the story of their previous births was told. Now the story is concluded.
Purport
The discourse concerning Lord Nṛsiṁhadeva and Prahlāda Mahārāja began when Mahārāja Yudhiṣṭhira asked Nārada how Śiśupāla had merged into the body of Kṛṣṇa. Śiśupāla and Dantavakra were the same Hiraṇyākṣa and Hiraṇyakaśipu. Here Nārada Muni is relating how in three different births the associates of Lord Viṣṇu were killed by Lord Viṣṇu Himself. First they were the demons Hiraṇyākṣa and Hiraṇyakaśipu.
