AVŚ 19.58.4

व्रजं कृणुध्वं स हि वो नृपाणो वर्मा सीव्यध्वं बहुला पृथूनि । पुरः कृणुध्वम् आयसीर् अधृष्टा मा वः सुस्रोच् चमसो दृंहत तम् ॥४॥

vrajaṃ kṛṇudhvaṃ sa hi vo nṛpāṇo varmā sīvyadhvaṃ bahulā pṛthūni | puraḥ kṛṇudhvam āyasīr adhṛṣṭā mā vaḥ susroc camaso dṛṃhata tam ||4||

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

Make ye a pen (vrajá), for that is men-protecting for you; sew ye coats-of-mail (várman), abundant, broad; make ye strongholds of metal, unattackable (ádhṛṣṭā); let not your bowl leak (sru); make it strong.

Translated by William Dwight Whitney (1905)
