Rig Veda 1.91.20: Mandala 1, Sukta 91, Mantra 20
Sukta 1.91
सोमो धेनुं सोमो अर्वन्तमाशुं सोमो वीरं कर्मण्यं ददाति । सादन्यं विदथ्यं सभेयं पितृश्रवणं यो ददाशदस्मै ॥
sómo dhenúṃ sómo árvantam āśúṃ sómo vīráṃ karmaṇyàṃ dadāti | sādanyàṃ vidathyàṃ sabhéyaṃ pitṛśrávaṇaṃ yó dádāśad asmai ||
Soma gibt die nährende Kuh; Soma gibt das schnelle Ross; Soma gibt den Helden, tauglich zum Werk. Er verleiht das Sitzen auf dem Sitz, das rechte Wort in der Versammlung und das „Hören der Väter“, das ererbte Hören der Wahrheit — dem, der sich Soma darbringt.
