TRANSLATION

You are supposed to be the commander of many foot soldiers, and now
you can take prompt steps to overthrow Us. Give up all your foolish talk
and wipe out the cares of your kith and kin by slaying Us. One may be
proud, yet he does not deserve a seat in an assembly if he fails to fulfill his
promised word.

PURPORT

A demon may be a great soldier and commander of a large number of
infantry, but in the presence of the Supreme Personality of Godhead he is
powerless and is destined to die. The Lord, therefore, challenged the de-
mon not to go away but to fulfill his promised word to kill Him.
