यो वि॒श्वच॑र्षणिरु॒त वि॒श्वतो॑मुखो॒ यो वि॒श्वत॑स्पाणिरु॒त वि॒श्वत॑स्पृथः । सं बा॒हुभ्यां॒ भर॑ति॒ सं पत॑त्रै॒र्द्यावा॑पृथि॒वी ज॒नय॑न् दे॒व एकः॑

Sanskrit recitationAtharva Veda 13.2.26

yó viśvácārṣaṇir utá viśvató-mukho yó viśvatáspāṇir utá viśvatáspṛthaḥ | sáṃ bāhúbhyāṃ bhárati sáṃ patátrair dyā́vā-pṛthivī́ janáyan devá ékaḥ

He who is of all peoples, and hath faces on every side; he who hath hands on every side, and is broad on every side—he beareth all together with his arms, all together with his wings, generating Heaven and Earth, the one God.

જે સર્વ જનનો છે અને સર્વ દિશાઓમાં મુખ ધરાવે છે; જે સર્વ દિશાઓમાં હાથ ધરાવે છે અને સર્વ દિશાઓમાં વિસ્તૃત છે—એ એક દેવ પોતાના બાહુઓથી બધું એકસાથે ધારણ કરે છે, પોતાના પાંખોથી પણ બધું એકસાથે વહન કરે છે; દ્યાવા-પૃથિવી (આકાશ અને ધરતી)ને જનમ આપનાર એ એક જ દેવ છે.
