Atharvaveda Saṃhitā (Śaunaka) 13.1.6

AVŚ 13.1.6

रोहितो द्यावापृथिवी जजान तत्र तन्तुं परमेष्ठी ततान । तत्र शिश्रिये ऽज एकपादो ऽदृंहद् द्यावापृथिवी बलेन ॥६॥

rohito dyāvāpṛthivī jajāna tatra tantuṃ parameṣṭhī tatāna | tatra śiśriye 'ja ekapādo 'dṛṃhad dyāvāpṛthivī balena ||6||

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

The ruddy one generated heaven-and-earth; there the most exalted one stretched the line (tántu); there was supported (çri) the one-footed goat (? ajá); by strength he made firm (dṛh) heaven-and-earth.

Translated by William Dwight Whitney (1905)
