वेनस्यावेक्ष्य मुनयो दुर्वृत्तस्य विचेष्टितम् । विमृश्य लोकव्यसनं कृपयोचुः स्म सत्रिणः ।। ४-१४-७ ।।

sanskrit

Therefore all the great sages assembled together and, after observing cruel Vena’s atrocities, concluded that a great danger and catastrophe was approaching the people of the world. Thus out of compassion they began to talk amongst themselves, for they themselves were the performers of the sacrifices. ।। 4-14-7 ।।

english translation

अत: सभी ऋषिगण एकत्र हुए और वेन के अत्याचारों को देखकर इस निष्कर्ष पर पहुँचे कि संसार के मनुष्यों पर महान् संकट तथा प्रलय आनेवाला है। अत: वे दयावश परस्पर बातें करने लगे, क्योंकि वे स्वयं ही यज्ञों को सम्पन्न करनेवाले थे। ।। ४-१४-७ ।।
