And Brahmā said,—‘Do ye seek the protection of the Supreme of supreme deities, that Lord, the Destroyer of Asuras, the cause of all,—as well as of creation, protection and destruction, the Lord of the lord of creatures—Vishnu; Infinite; the unvanquished; the cause of the unborn Pradhana and Purusha ripe for creation; Him that taketh off the misery of the humble; even Vishnu. He will provide for your welfare.'
In plain words: Brahma tells the gods to seek shelter with Vishnu. Vishnu is the supreme Lord who creates, protects and ends all things. He defeats the demons and removes the suffering of the humble. Brahma promises Vishnu will help them.
