ŚB 3.14.11
तद्भवान्दह्यमानायां सपत्नीनां समृद्धिभि: ।
प्रजावतीनां भद्रं ते मय्यायुङ्क्तामनुग्रहम् ॥ ११ ॥
tad bhavān dahyamānāyāṁ
sa-patnīnāṁ samṛddhibhiḥ
prajāvatīnāṁ bhadraṁ te
mayy āyuṅktām anugraham
Synonyms
tat — therefore; bhavān — your good self; dahyamānāyām — being distressed; sa-patnīnām — of the co-wives; samṛddhibhiḥ — by the prosperity; prajā-vatīnām — of those who have children; bhadram — all prosperity; te — unto you; mayi — unto me; āyuṅktām — do unto me, in all respects; anugraham — favor.
Translation
Therefore you should be kind towards me by showing me complete mercy. I desire to have sons, and I am much distressed by seeing the opulence of my co-wives. By performing this act, you will become happy.
Purport
In Bhagavad-gītā sexual intercourse for begetting children is accepted as righteous. A person sexually inclined for simple sense gratification, however, is unrighteous. In Diti’s appeal to her husband for sex, it was not exactly that she was afflicted by sex desires, but she desired sons. Since she had no sons, she felt poorer than her co-wives. Therefore Kaśyapa was supposed to satisfy his bona fide wife.

ŚB 3.14.12
भर्तर्याप्तोरुमानानां लोकानाविशते यश: ।
पतिर्भवद्विधो यासां प्रजया ननु जायते ॥ १२ ॥
bhartary āptorumānānāṁ
lokān āviśate yaśaḥ
patir bhavad-vidho yāsāṁ
prajayā nanu jāyate
Synonyms
bhartari — by the husband; āpta-urumānānām — of those who are beloved; lokān — in the world; āviśate — spreads; yaśaḥ — fame; patiḥ — husband; bhavat-vidhaḥ — like your good self; yāsām — of those whose; prajayā — by children; nanu — certainly; jāyate — expands.
Translation
A woman is honored in the world by the benediction of her husband, and a husband like you will become famous by having children because you are meant for the expansion of living entities.
Purport
According to Ṛṣabhadeva, one should not become a father or mother unless one is confident that he can beget children whom he can deliver from the clutches of birth and death. Human life is the only opportunity to get out of the material scene, which is full of the miseries of birth, death, old age and diseases. Every human being should be given the opportunity to take advantage of his human form of life, and a father like Kaśyapa is supposed to beget good children for the purpose of liberation.
