The lord of the 1st house may be with a bad planet in the 12th, 6th or 8th house. Then the person has little bodily comfort. The lord of the 12th, 6th or 8th house in its own sign brings the same result. A bad planet may be in the 1st house, and the lord of the 1st house may be weak. Then the person may be troubled by many ailments. He may suffer illness and bouts of mental pain.
Verse 2.3 and Verse 2.5 show the pattern. It looks at where the house lord sits and which planets join it or look at it.
Verse 2.5 says the lord of the 2nd house in its own sign with Jupiter, or in a corner house, gives all kinds of wealth.
Verse 2.31 says the strongest lord gives its gain in its dasha and in its sub-period.
Simple meaning: A weak 1st lord, or bad planets in the 1st, may bring poor health, illness and mental pain.

He is wise, and may be a minister or a king. He has very lovely eyes. He stands high among men.
Simple meaning: A strong 1st lord gives a good, wise, rich and liked person. He may become a minister or king.

A bad planet may be in the 1st house. The lord of the 1st house may be in a sign of a bad planet. The Sun and Moon may sit between bad planets. Mars may be in the 7th from the Sun and Moon.

Venus may be with the Moon in the 6th, 8th or 12th house, in a night birth. Then the person may lose his sight. The lord of the 1st house may be with the Sun and Venus.

Then the wise should say that those people may lose their sight.

Simple meaning: The 3rd lord with Mars in a bad house may mean no brothers. Well placed, it gives brothers and joy.

The lord of the 4th house may be in its own sign with the lord of the 1st house. Then the person may suddenly get a house, or the good will of friends. If it is in any other house, he may not get a house. Count the bad planets in the 6th, 8th or 12th house that are with the 2nd, 10th or 12th lord. That many planets, come under the power of fire, may bring trouble to the person. (Our text is unclear here: 'under the power of fire' may mean burnt by the Sun, or that homes may catch fire.)
Simple meaning: The 4th lord in its own sign with the 1st lord may give a house. Elsewhere, it is hard.

The 5th lord, alone or with Mercury and Jupiter, may be in the 6th, 8th or 12th house. Then the person may lack learning. If it is in the 9th house, its own sign or a corner house, he has learning. At birth, planets may be in their child state or old state. Then the mind may be slow. But if the planet is in its own sign, it removes this fault.
Simple meaning: The 5th lord in a bad house may mean little learning. In a good house it gives learning.

A bad planet or Jupiter may be in the 4th house, and the Moon in the 5th or 8th. Then children may be held back for 30 years. Count the bad planets in the 5th house that are not seen by good planets. For that many years, children may surely be delayed.
Simple meaning: Some placements may hold back children for years. Each unaided bad planet in the 5th adds a year of delay.

Children come as the fruit of good deeds. If Mercury or Venus [blocks them], bathing the image of Shiva helps. The same is true for the Moon. For Jupiter, mantras, yantras and herbs help. For Saturn, Mars, the Sun, Ketu or Rahu, worship the family god. Do it in the way the scriptures teach. With Mercury, Jupiter and the 9th lord [strong], success comes quickly.
Simple meaning: Children come from good deeds. Worship and rites for the blocking planet, done as scriptures teach, bring success.

If Mercury is in the samsthana place, he thinks about learning. (Our text is unclear here: which house 'samsthana sthana' is.)
