AVŚ 6.68.3

येनावपत् सविता क्षुरेण सोमस्य राज्ञो वरुणस्य विद्वान् । तेन ब्रह्माणो वपतेदम् अस्य गोमान् अश्ववान् अयम् अस्तु प्रजावान् ॥३॥

yenāvapat savitā kṣureṇa somasya rājño varuṇasya vidvān | tena brahmāṇo vapatedam asya gomān aśvavān ayam astu prajāvān ||3||

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

With what razor the knowing Savitar shaved [the head] of king Soma, of Varuṇa, therewith, ye priests (brahmán), shave [it] now of this man; be he rich in kine, in horses, in progeny.

Translated by William Dwight Whitney (1905)
