In the full Narada Purana (Purva Bhaga) this is chapter 56, verse 57.
In the southern part, Jupiter gives the opposite. In the middle part, he gives middling results. Jupiter's colours, in order, are yellow, fire-red, dark, green and red.
Simple meaning: Jupiter in the southern part gives the opposite of good. In the middle part, results are middling.
व्याध्यग्निचौरशस्त्रास्त्रभयदः प्राणिनां भवेत् ।
Jupiter's colour shows the fear to come: illness, fire, thieves or weapons. A smoky Jupiter brings drought.
दिवादृष्टो नृपवध्यामयंवाराष्ट्रनाशनम् ।
Seen in daylight, it can bring danger to a king, illness and harm to the land.
नाभिस्त्वापाठ्युगलमाद्री हृत्कुसुमं मघा ।
When a cruel planet strikes the year's body, famine, fire and wind can be feared.
