Atharvaveda Saṃhitā (Śaunaka) 19.42.2

AVŚ 19.42.2

ब्रह्म स्रुचो घृतवतीर् ब्रह्मणा वेदिर् उद्धिता । ब्रह्म यज्ञस्य तत्त्वं च ऋत्विजो ये हविष्कृतः । शमिताय स्वाहा ॥२॥

brahma sruco ghṛtavatīr brahmaṇā vedir uddhitā | brahma yajñasya tattvaṃ ca ṛtvijo ye haviṣkṛtaḥ | śamitāya svāhā ||2||

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

The bráhman is the sacrificial spoons filled with ghee; by the bráhman is the sacrificial hearth set up (ud-dhā) and the bráhman is the essence (tattvá) of the sacrifice—the priests that are oblation-makers: ⌊to the slaughtered [victim] hail!⌋

Translated by William Dwight Whitney (1905)
