Manu 9.26
प्रजनार्थं महाभागाः पूजअर्हा गृहदीप्तयः । स्त्रियः श्रियश् च गेहेषु न विशेषो ऽअस्ति) कश् चन ॥
prajanārthaṃ mahā.bhāgāḥ pūja.arhā gṛhadīptayaḥ | striyaḥ śriyaś ca geheṣu na viśeṣo 'asti) kaś cana ||
Devanagari rendered by HREEM from the edition's roman (IAST) text; the IAST is the edition's own.
Between wives (striya^) who (are destined) to bear children, who secure many blessings, who are worthy of worship and irradiate (their) dwellings, and between the goddesses of fortune (mya/£, who reside) in the houses (of men), there is no difference whatsoever.
