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

Ask of the sages' mighty generations firm-minded and devout they framed the heaven. These are thy heart-sought strengthening directions, and they have come to be sky's upholders.

Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)
