Translation
Indra, you are bereft of all shame, mercy, glory and good fortune. Deprived of these good qualities by the reactions of your fruitive activities, you are to be condemned even by the man-eaters [Rākṣasas]. Now I shall pierce your body with my trident, and after you die with great pain, even fire will not touch you; only the vultures will eat your body.
Translation (Visvanatha Cakravarti Thakura)
Vultures alone will eat your body, which is devoid of beauty, reserve, mercy and fame, which will be pierced by my trident, and will be untouched by fire, being detested even by flesh-eating Rākṣasas.
The verb “eat” is in the present tense, since the action will take place soon.
