cakre hiraṇyakaśipur dorbhyāṁ brahma-vareṇa ca vaśe sa-pālāḻ lokāṁs trīn akuto-mṛtyur uddhataḥ

Translation

The elder child, Hiraṇyakaśipu, was unafraid of death from anyone within the three worlds because he received a benediction from Lord Brahmā. He was proud and puffed up due to this benediction and was able to bring all three planetary systems under his control.
