TRANSLATION
[Uddhava told Krsna:] The wise Devaki shelters You, who shelter the entire world. When she heard those wicked words, she said, “Foolish woman, what is unusual here? Sri Vasudeva and I, in our previous lives, underwent austerities to get the Lord as our son, and therefore, the Lord, the bestower of all boons, accepted that role. But Nanda and Yasoda prayed to Lord Brahma for pure devotion.”
