jajñāte tau diteḥ putrau
daitya-dānava-vanditau
hiraṇyakaśipur jyeṣṭho
hiraṇyākṣo ’nujas tataḥ

jajñāte — were born; tau — the two; diteḥ — of Diti; putrau — the sons; daitya-dānava — by all the demons; vanditau — being worshiped; hiraṇyakaśipuḥ — Hiraṇyakaśipu; jyeṣṭhaḥ — the elder; hiraṇyākṣaḥ — Hiraṇyākṣa; anujaḥ — the younger; tataḥ — thereafter.

These two associates of the Lord — Jaya and Vijaya — later descended to the material world, taking birth as the two sons of Diti, Hiraṇyakaśipu being the elder and Hiraṇyākṣa the younger. They were very much respected by the Daityas and Dānavas [demoniac species].
