তবে কৃষ্ণ তারে দেন হেন-দিব্য-মতি সর্বত্র নিস্তার পায, নাঠেকযে কতি ॥ ৩৯২ ॥

तबे कृष्ण तारे देन हेन-दिव्य-मति सर्वत्र निस्तार पाय, नाठेकये कति ॥ ३९२ ॥

tabe kṛṣṇa tāre dena hena-divya-mati sarvatra nistāra pāya, nāṭhekaye kati || 392 ||

tabe krsna tare dena hena-divya-mati sarvatra nistara paya, nathekaye kati (392)

English translation:

(392) Then Lord Kṛṣṇa will impart one with transcendental intelligence by which one is completely delivered without hindrance.

Commentary: Gauḍīya-bhāṣya by Śrīla Bhaktisiddhānta Sarasvatī Ṭhākura:

Those who do not carefully study Śrīmad Bhāgavatam and who cannot understand the extraordinary characteristics of the devotees attain inauspiciousness. But the Supreme Lord imparts transcendental intelligence to actual devotees so that they do not meet with any inauspiciousness. Even though they are faced with dangerous situations, they do not meet with any inauspiciousness.

About sixty years ago Lord Kṛṣṇa displayed one similar merciful pastime by testing Śrī Svarūpa dāsa Bābājī Mahāśaya.
