asato 'vijitātmanaḥ

tathā—very well; iti—thus; sutam ādāya—taking back his child; yayau—left that place; ānakadundubhiḥ—Vasudeva; na abhyanandata—did not very much value; tat-vākyam—the words (of Kaṁsa); asataḥ—who was without character; avijita-ātmanaḥ—and without self-control.

TRANSLATION

Vasudeva agreed and took his child back home, but because Kaṁsa had no character and no self-control, Vasudeva knew that he could not rely on Kaṁsa's word.
