Translation
The Supreme Lord Kṛṣṇa, whose endeavor never fails, begot ten sons in each of His many wives.
Translation (Visvanatha Cakravarti Thakura)
The Supreme Lord Kṛṣṇa, whose endeavor never fails, begot ten sons in each of His many wives.
KB 10.90.31
… Lord Kṛṣṇa had ten sons by each of the other queens. Thus altogether Kṛṣṇa’s sons numbered 16,108 times ten. One should not be astonished to hear that Kṛṣṇa had so many sons. One should always remember that Kṛṣṇa is the Supreme Personality of Godhead and that He has unlimited potencies. He claims all living entities as His sons, so the fact that He had 161,080 sons attached to Him personally should be no cause for astonishment.
Purport
The total number of Lord Kṛṣṇa’s sons was thus 161,080, and He also had a daughter by each wife.
Purport (Visvanatha Cakravarti Thakura)
There is an alternate version amogha rati instead of amogha gatih. In that case the meaning is "one whose desires do not go in vain, whose desires are always fulfilled."
Purport (Jiva Goswami)
These are recalled. In all the wives he had ten sons each, who were just like him since his intentions never go in vain. He begot in his wives, at the time they should appear, by his will, ten sons who were the abodes of the highest spiritual elements, since he was the Lord. Since he was the Lord this was not astonishing.
Purport (Sanatana Goswami)
These are recalled. In all the wives he had ten sons each, who were just like him since his pastimes never go in vain (amogha), because he was directly bhagavān (īśvaraḥ). Or “How was it possible to produce the same number of sons in each queen?” He is capable of everything (īśvaraḥ).
