यस्य॑ ते॒ वासः॑ प्रथमवा॒स्यं॑१ हरा॑म॒स्तं त्वा॒ विश्वे॑ऽवन्तु दे॒वाः । तं त्वा॒ भ्रात॑रः सु॒वृधा॒ वर्ध॑मान॒मनु॑ जातन्तां ब॒हवः॒ सुजा॑तम्

Whose first vesture, even thy earliest garment, we take up—may all the Gods befriend and guard thee. Thee, waxing ever, may thy brothers, good increasers, follow with birth in multitude—well-born.
Celui dont le premier vêtement — ton tout premier habit — nous relevons : que tous les dieux te soient favorables et te gardent. Toi, croissant sans cesse, que tes frères, bons accroisseurs, te suivent dans la naissance — en multitude, bien-né.
Rishi: Atharvanic/Angiras-type attribution typical for domestic-prosperity formulae (specific r̥ṣi for 2.13 not supplied in input).
Devata: Viśve Devāḥ (All the Gods); secondarily the kin-group as social ‘agents’ of increase.
Chandas: Anuṣṭubh (probable; requires metrical verification against pada-counting in the received text).
Primary: shringara
Secondary: shanta
