Ṛgveda Saṃhitā 10.109.5

RV 10.109.5

ब्रह्मचारी चरति वेविषद् विषः स देवानाम् भवत्य् एकम् अङ्गम् । तेन जायाम् अन्व् अविन्दद् बृहस्पतिः सोमेन नीतां जुह्वं न देवाः ॥

brahmacārī carati veviṣad viṣaḥ sa devānām bhavaty ekam aṅgam | tena jāyām anv avindad bṛhaspatiḥ somena nītāṃ juhvaṃ na devāḥ ||

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

The Brahmacari goes engaged in duty: he is a member of the Gods' own body. Through him Brhaspati obtained his consort, as the Gods gained the ladle brought by Soma.

Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)
