O king, He ruled his kingdom with great virtue. King Nahusha equally supported the Pitris, the Devas, the Rishis, the Gandharvas, the Nagas, the Rakshasas, the Brahmanas, the Kshatriyas and the Vaishyas. He suppressed all the robbers with a mighty hand; he made Rishis to pay tribute to himself.
राज्यं शशास सुमहद् धर्मेण पृथिवीपते। पितॄन् देवानृषीन् विप्रान् गन्धर्वोरगराक्षसान्॥ नहुषः पालयामास ब्रह्मक्षत्रमथो विशः। स हत्वा दस्युसंघातानृषीन् करमदापयत्॥
