tan me sva-bhartur avasāyam alakṣamāṇau yuṣmad-vyatikrama-gatiṁ pratipadya sadyaḥ bhūyo mamāntikam itāṁ tad anugraho me yat kalpatām acirato bhṛtayor vivāsaḥ
Translation
These servants of Mine have transgressed against you, not knowing the mind of their master. I shall therefore deem it a favor done to Me if you order that, although reaping the fruit of their transgression, they may return to My presence soon and the time of their exile from My abode may expire before long.
