mayeśe nṛpa-yūthapāḥ
na sehire yājñaseni
spardhanto hṛc-chayāturāḥ

evam — thus; vṛte — being chosen; bhagavati — the Personality of Godhead; mayā — by me; īśe — the Lord; nṛpa — of kings; yūtha-pāḥ — the leaders; na sehire — could not tolerate it; yājñaseni — O Draupadī; spardhantaḥ — becoming quarrelsome; hṛt-śaya — by lust; āturāḥ — distressed.

The leading kings there could not tolerate my having chosen the Supreme Personality of Godhead, O Draupadī. Burning with lust, they became quarrelsome.

Śrīla Śrīdhara Svāmī comments that the contamination of lust led the kings to quarrel foolishly with the Lord even after seeing His supreme power.
