Ṛgveda Saṃhitā 10.85.34

RV 10.85.34

तृष्टम् एतत् कटुकम् एतद् अपाष्ठवद् विषवन् नैतद् अत्तवे । सूर्यां यो ब्रह्मा विद्यात् स इद् वाधूयम् अर्हति ॥

tṛṣṭam etat kaṭukam etad apāṣṭhavad viṣavan naitad attave | sūryāṃ yo brahmā vidyāt sa id vādhūyam arhati ||

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

Pungent is this, and bitter this, filled, as it were, with arrow-barbs, Empoisoned and not fit for use. The Brahman who knows Surya well deserves the garment of the bride.

Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)
