Hungarian	Az Úr Kṛṣṇa ötezer évvel ezelőtt, vṛndāvanai kedvtelései során felemelte a Govardhana-hegyet, s hét napon át tartotta a magasban, hogy megvédelmezze Vṛndāvana lakóit a rettentő esőtől, amelyet Indra, a félistenek királya küldött ellenük.
English	EN KB 2018 one-vol: When the demigod Indra poured massive torrents of rain upon Vṛndāvana because Kṛṣṇa had prevented a sacrifice meant to please him, the Lord protected the inhabitants by lifting Govardhana Hill with one hand. When the demigod Indra poured massive torrents of rain upon Vṛndāvana because Kṛṣṇa had prevented a sacrifice meant to please him, the Lord protected the inhabitants by lifting Govardhana Hill with one hand, exactly as a child picks up a mushroom from the ground. The inhabitants of Vṛndāvana and their animals remained under the hill for one week without being disturbed by hunger, thirst or any other discomforts. They were simply astonished to see how Kṛṣṇa was holding up the mountain with the little finger of His left hand.
German	Kṛṣṇa hob den Govardhana-Hügel mit dem kleinen Finger Seiner linken Hand hoch, um die Bewohner von Vṛndāvana vor Indias Gewittern zu beschützen.
