SB 10.56.12
sa yacito manim kvapi
yadu-rajaya saurina
naivartha-kamukah pradad
yacña-bhangam atarkayan
Translation:
On one occasion Lord Krsna requested Satrajit to give the jewel to the Yadu king, Ugrasena, but Satrajit was so greedy that he refused. He gave no thought to the seriousness of the offense he committed by denying the Lord’s request.
SB 10.56.13
tam ekada manim kanthe
pratimucya maha-prabham
praseno hayam aruhya
mrgayam vyacarad vane
Translation:
Once Satrajit’s brother, Prasena, having hung the brilliant jewel about his neck, mounted a horse and went hunting in the forest.
Purport:
The inauspicious result of Satrajit’s refusal of Lord Krsna’s request is about to manifest.
