Those cruel haters, worst among men in the world, I hurl those evil-doers into the wombs of demons only.

These cruel haters, the lowest of humans, impure in their ways, I hurl again and again into demonic wombs within the cycles of worldly life.

Krishna speaks as the one who governs the consequences of action. Those who hate, are cruel and impure, the lowest among humans, he casts repeatedly into demonic births within the round of birth and death (saṃsāra). The verse can sound harsh. Many readers understand it as describing the law by which actions bear fruit: a person who chooses hatred is drawn into conditions that match that choice, and the Lord is presented as upholding this order rather than acting from anger.
