Ṛgveda Saṃhitā 10.146.5

RV 10.146.5

न वा अरण्यानिर् हन्त्य् अन्यश् चेन् नाभिगच्छति । स्वादोः फलस्य जग्ध्वाय यथाकामं नि पद्यते ॥

na vā araṇyānir hanty anyaś cen nābhigacchati | svādoḥ phalasya jagdhvāya yathākāmaṃ ni padyate ||

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

The Goddess never slays, unless some murderous enemy approach. Man eats of savoury fruit and then takes, even as he wills, his rest.
