Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam 8.11.32

న తస్య హి త్వచమపి వజ్ర ఊర్జితో బిభేద య: సురపతినౌజసేరిత: । తదద్భ‍ుతం పరమతివీర్యవృత్రభిత్ తిరస్కృతో నముచిశిరోధరత్వచా ॥ ౩౨ ॥
na tasya hi tvacam api vajra ūrjito
[na tasya hi tvacham api vajra oorjito]
bibheda yaḥ sura-patinaujaseritaḥ
[bibheda yah sura-patinaujaseritah]
tad adbhutaṁ param ativīrya-vṛtra-bhit
[tad adbhutam param ativeerya-vritra-bhit]
tiraskṛto namuci-śirodhara-tvacā
[tiraskrito namuchi-shirodhara-tvachaa]
na — not tasya — of him (Namuci) hi — indeed tvacam api — even the skin vajraḥ — the thunderbolt ūrjitaḥ — very powerful bibheda — could pierce yaḥ — the weapon which sura-patinā — by the king of the demigods ojasā — very forcefully īritaḥ — had been released tat — therefore adbhutam param — it was extraordinarily wonderful ativīrya-vṛtra-bhit — so powerful that it could pierce the body of the very powerful Vṛtrāsura tiraskṛtaḥ — (now in the future) which had been repelled namuci-śirodhara-tvacā — by the skin of Namuci’s neck.

na tasya hi tvacam api vajra ūrjito
na
not
tasya
of him (Namuci)
hi
indeed
tvacam api
even the skin
vajraḥ
the thunderbolt
ūrjitaḥ
very powerful
bibheda yaḥ sura-patinaujaseritaḥ
bibheda
could pierce
yaḥ
the weapon which
sura-patinā
by the king of the demigods
ojasā
very forcefully
tad adbhutaṁ param ativīrya-vṛtra-bhit
īritaḥ
had been released
tat
therefore
adbhutam param
it was extraordinarily wonderful
tiraskṛto namuci-śirodhara-tvacā
ativīrya-vṛtra-bhit
so powerful that it could pierce the body of the very powerful Vṛtrāsura
tiraskṛtaḥ
(now in the future) which had been repelled
namuci-śirodhara-tvacā
by the skin of Namuci’s neck.
Although King Indra hurled his thunderbolt at Namuci with great force, it could not even pierce his skin. It is very wonderful that the famed thunderbolt that had pierced the body of Vṛtrāsura could not even slightly injure the skin of Namuci’s neck.
Viśvanātha Cakravartī Ṭhākura Gauḍīya
Translation
That powerful thunderbolt released with force by Indra did not pierce the skin of Namuci. That was most astonishing. What could kill most powerful Vṛtrāsura could not pierce Namuci’s skin. That thunderbolt which pierced even most powerful Vṛtrāsura could not pierce Namuci’s skin.
