Ṛgveda Saṃhitā 10.14.2

RV 10.14.2

यमो नो गातुम् प्रथमो विवेद नैषा गव्यूतिर् अपभर्तवा उ । यत्रा नः पूर्वे पितरः परेयुर् एना जज्ञानाः पथ्या अनु स्वाः ॥

yamo no gātum prathamo viveda naiṣā gavyūtir apabhartavā u | yatrā naḥ pūrve pitaraḥ pareyur enā jajñānāḥ pathyā anu svāḥ ||

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

Yama first found for us a place to dwell in: this pasture never can be taken from Us. Men born on earth tread their own paths that lead them whither our ancient Fathers have departed.
