AVŚ 18.4.2

देवा यज्ञम् ऋतवः कल्पयन्ति हविः पुरोडाशं स्रुचो यज्ञायुधानि । तेभिर् याहि पथिभिर् देवयानैर् यैर् ईजानाः स्वर्गं यन्ति लोकम् ॥२॥

devā yajñam ṛtavaḥ kalpayanti haviḥ puroḍāśaṃ sruco yajñāyudhāni | tebhir yāhi pathibhir devayānair yair ījānāḥ svargaṃ yanti lokam ||2||

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

The gods, the seasons, arrange the sacrifice, the oblation, the sacrificial cake, the ladles (srúc), the implements (-ā́yudha) of sacrifice; with them go thou by roads that the gods travel, by which they that have sacrificed go to the heavenly (svargá) world.

Translated by William Dwight Whitney (1905)
