Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam
[Canto 4, Ch. 11]
TRANSLATION
My dear Dhruva, you thought that the Yakṣas killed your brother, and therefore you have killed great numbers of them. But by this action you have agitated the mind of Lord Śiva's brother, Kuvera, who is the treasurer of the demigods. Please note that your actions have been very disrespectful to Kuvera and Lord Śiva.
PURPORT
Lord Manu stated that Dhruva Mahārāja had been offensive to Lord Śiva and his brother Kuvera because the Yakṣas belonged to Kuvera's family. They were not ordinary persons. As such, they have been described as  puṇya-jana , pious men. Somehow or other the mind of Kuvera had been agitated, and Dhruva Mahārāja was advised to pacify him.
TEXT 34
तं प्रसादय वत्साशु संनत्या प्रश्रयोक्तिभिः । न यावन्महतां तेजः कुलं नोऽभिभविष्यति ॥३४॥
tam prasādaya vatsāśu sannatyā praśrayoktibhiḥ na yāvan mahatām tejaḥ kulam no 'bhibhaviṣyati
tam—him; prasādaya—pacify; vatsa—my son; āśu—immediately; sannatyā—by offering obeisances; praśrayā—by respectful behavior; uktibhiḥ—by gentle words; na yāvat—before; mahatām—of great personalities; tejaḥ—wrath; kulam—family; naḥ—our; abhibhaviṣyati—will affect.
TRANSLATION
For this reason, my son, you should immediately pacify Kuvera with gentle words and prayers, and thus his wrath may not affect our family.
PURPORT
In our common dealings we should maintain friendship with everyone and certainly with such exalted demigods as Kuvera. Our behavior should be such that no one should become angry and thereby commit a wrong to individuals, families or society.
