Shankaracharya. ātmano vibhūtayo yāḥ tāḥ vaktum arhasi; yābhiḥ vibhūtibhiḥ ātmano māhātmyavistaraiḥ — vibhuti = the expansion of your greatness.
Acharya Ramanuja. divyāḥ tvadasādhāraṇyo vibhūtayo — divine, that is, unique to you; tvam eva vyañjaya ity arthaḥ — you yourself reveal them; yaiḥ niyamanaviśeṣaiḥ yukta imān lokān tvaṃ niyantṛtvena vyāpya tiṣṭhasi — vibhuti = particular forms of governance; you pervade as the controller.
