Sukta 120
सुकृतस्य लोकः। यदन्तरिक्षं पृथिवीमुत द्यां यन्मातरं पितरं वा जिहिंसिम। अयं तस्माद् गार्हपत्यो नो अग्निरुदिन्नयाति सुकृतस्य लोकम्
sukṛtásya lokáḥ | yád antárikṣaṃ pṛthivī́m utá dyā́ṃ yán mātáraṃ pitáraṃ vā́ jihíṃsimá | ayáṃ tásmād gārhapatyó no agnír úd ín nayāti sukṛtásya lokám ||
The world of well-doing: if we have harmed mid-air, or earth, or heaven; if (we have harmed) mother or father—this our Gārhapatya Agni, from that, doth verily lead upward unto the world of well-doing.
সুকৃতের লোক। যদি আমরা অন্তরীক্ষ, পৃথিবী অথবা দ্যুলোককে ক্ষতি করে থাকি; যদি মাতা বা পিতাকেও আঘাত/দুঃখ দিয়ে থাকি—তবে আমাদের এই গার্হপত্য অগ্নি, সেখান থেকে আমাদের ঊর্ধ্বে তুলে সুকৃতের লোকের দিকে নিয়ে যায়।
