प्रदीर्यमाणां वसुधां गिरीणां शिखराणि च । लोकस्य पश्यतो राजन्स्थापयाम्यभिमन्त्रणात्॥५-६०-११॥

When the earth is splitting and the mountain-peaks are breaking, O king, I can stabilize them by incantatory command, even as the world looks on.

english translation

चेतनाचेतनस्यास्य जङ्गमस्थावरस्य च । विनाशाय समुत्पन्नं महाघोरं महास्वनम्॥५-६०-१२॥

For this entire world—sentient and insentient, moving and unmoving—there arises a great, dreadful, thunderous sound that portends systemic destruction.

english translation

अश्मवर्षं च वायुं च शमयामीह नित्यशः । जगतः पश्यतोऽभीक्ष्णं भूतानामनुकम्पया॥५-६०-१३॥

I regularly quell stone-fall and violent winds here, repeatedly, as the world watches—out of compassion for living beings.

english translation

स्तम्भितास्वप्सु गच्छन्ति मया रथपदातयः । देवासुराणां भावानामहमेकः प्रवर्तिता॥५-६०-१४॥

With waters immobilized by me, chariots and infantry move across them; and I alone am the instigator of the conditions and dispositions of gods and anti-gods.

english translation

अक्षौहिणीभिर्यान्देशान्यामि कार्येण केनचित् । तत्रापो मे प्रवर्तन्ते यत्र यत्राभिकामये॥५-६०-१५॥

When I go to regions with akṣauhiṇīs for some undertaking, waters become available and flow for me wherever I desire.
