Atharvaveda Saṃhitā (Śaunaka) 4.35.1

AVŚ 4.35.1

यम् ओदनं प्रथमजा ऋतस्य प्रजापतिस् तपसा ब्रह्मणे ऽपचत् । यो लोकानां विधृतिर् नाभिरेषात् तेनौदनेनाति तराणि मृत्युम् ॥१॥

yam odanaṃ prathamajā ṛtasya prajāpatis tapasā brahmaṇe 'pacat | yo lokānāṃ vidhṛtir nābhireṣāt tenaudanenāti tarāṇi mṛtyum ||1||

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

The rice-mess which Prajāpati, first-born of righteousness, cooked with fervor (tápas) for Brahmán; which, separator of the worlds, shall not harm (?)—by that rice-mess let me overpass death.

Translated by William Dwight Whitney (1905)
