the Lord, the enjoyer of the sacrifice.
O King, we wish all good fortune for you. You have no son, but if you pray at once to the Supreme Lord and ask for a son, and if you execute the sacrifice for that purpose, the enjoyer of the sacrifice, the Supreme Personality of Godhead, will fulfill your desire.

Translation
Therefore, produce a good son for yourself. All fortune will be yours! The enjoyer of sacrifice, the Supreme Lord, worshipped by you, will bestow a son to you, desirous of a son.

Personal Guidance
Pray now to the Lord, perform the sacrifice for a son, and the Supreme will grant it. Even ancient karmic deficits can be addressed by the right present-day prayer.
Reflection Questions
- Which long-standing lack am I treating as fated when active prayer could shift it?
- What specific sacrifice does my current deficit ask me to make?
