Vājasaneyi Saṃhitā (Śukla Yajurveda, as given on Wikisource) 40.2

VS 40.2

कुर्वन्न् एवेह कर्माणि जिजीविषेच् छतꣳ समाः । एवं त्वयि नान्यथेतो ऽस्ति न कर्म लिप्यते नरे ॥

kurvann eveha karmāṇi jijīviṣec chatam̐ samāḥ | evaṃ tvayi nānyatheto 'sti na karma lipyate nare ||

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

If one should desire to live in this world a hundred years, one should live performing Karma (righteous deeds). Thus thou mayest live; there is no other way. By doing this, Karma (the fruits of thy actions) will not defile thee.

Translated by Swami ParamanandaThis is the translator's rendering of the same verse where it occurs at IsU 2; the wording of this text may differ in places.
