Genealogies from Yayāti’s Sons to the Yadu Dynasty; Romapāda–Ṛṣyaśṛṅga; Kārtavīryārjuna; and the Rise of Yādava Branches
अन्वमोदन्त तद्विश्वेदेवा: पितर एव च । शैब्या गर्भमधात् काले कुमारं सुषुवे शुभम् । स विदर्भ इति प्रोक्त उपयेमे स्नुषां सतीम् ॥ ३८ ॥
anvamodanta tad viśve- devāḥ pitara eva ca śaibyā garbham adhāt kāle kumāraṁ suṣuve śubham sa vidarbha iti prokta upayeme snuṣāṁ satīm
ヴィシュヴェデーヴァと祖霊（ピトリ）たちは満悦し、その慈恩によりジャーマガの言葉は真実となった。不妊であったシャイビヤも神々の恩寵によって懐妊し、時至って吉祥なる男児を産んだ。その名はヴィダルバという。子の誕生以前にその娘はすでに嫁として迎えられていたゆえ、成長したヴィダルバは彼女を妻とした。
Thus end the Bhaktivedanta purports of the Ninth Canto, Twenty-third Chapter, of the Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam, entitled “The Dynasties of the Sons of Yayāti.”
