एतद् वो ब्राह्मणा हविर् इति मन्वीत याचितः । वशां चेद् एनं याचेयुर् या भीमाददुषो गृहे ॥४८॥

etad vo brāhmaṇā havir iti manvīta yācitaḥ | vaśāṃ ced enaṃ yāceyur yā bhīmādaduṣo gṛhe ||48||

Devanagari rendered by HREEM from the edition's roman (IAST) text; the IAST is the edition's own.

This, O Brahmans, is your oblation—so, when asked ⌊therefor⌋, should he think, if they should ask of him the cow, which in the house of him who has not given her is fearful.

Translated by William Dwight Whitney (1905)
