Ṛgveda Saṃhitā 10.27.17

RV 10.27.17

पीवानम् मेषम् अपचन्त वीरा न्युप्ता अक्षा अनु दीव आसन् । द्वा धनुम् बृहतीम् अप्स्व् अन्तः पवित्रवन्ता चरतः पुनन्ता ॥

pīvānam meṣam apacanta vīrā nyuptā akṣā anu dīva āsan | dvā dhanum bṛhatīm apsv antaḥ pavitravantā carataḥ punantā ||

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

The Heroes dressed with fire the fatted weather: the dice were thrown by way of sport and gaming. Two reach the plain amid the heavenly waters, hallowing and with means of purifying.

Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)
