Ṛgveda Saṃhitā 10.114.2

RV 10.114.2

तिस्रो देष्ट्राय निरृतीर् उपासते दीर्घश्रुतो वि हि जानन्ति वह्नयः । तासां नि चिक्युः कवयो निदानम् परेषु या गुह्येषु व्रतेषु ॥

tisro deṣṭrāya nirṛtīr upāsate dīrghaśruto vi hi jānanti vahnayaḥ | tāsāṃ ni cikyuḥ kavayo nidānam pareṣu yā guhyeṣu vrateṣu ||

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

The priests beard far away, as they are ordered, serve the three Nirrtis, for well they know them. Sages have traced the cause that first produced them, dwelling in distant and mysterious chambers.

Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)
