AVŚ 18.1.29

द्यावा ह क्षामा प्रथमे ऋतेनाभिश्रावे भवतः सत्यवाचा । देवो यन् मर्तान् यजथाय कृण्वन्त् सीदद् धोता प्रत्यङ् स्वम् असुं यन् ॥२९॥

dyāvā ha kṣāmā prathame ṛtenābhiśrāve bhavataḥ satyavācā | devo yan martān yajathāya kṛṇvant sīdad dhotā pratyaṅ svam asuṃ yan ||29||

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

Heaven and earth, first by right, truth-speaking, are within hearing, when the god, making mortals to sacrifice, sits as hótṛ, going to meet his own being (ásu).

Translated by William Dwight Whitney (1905)
