Mantra 15
Sukta 4
क्रोड आसीज्जामिशंसस्य सोमस्य कलशो धृतः । देवाः संगत्य यत् सर्व ऋषभं व्यकल्पयन्
króḍa ā́sīj jā́miśaṁsasya sómasya kalaśó dhṛtáḥ | devā́ḥ saṁgátya yát sárva ṛṣabháṁ vyàkalpayan ||
A lap there was: for Soma of the self-praising kinsman the jar was firmly held. When all the Gods, assembled in one accord, set forth and duly ordered the Bull.
एक गोद/अंक था; जामि-शंस (स्व-स्तुति करने वाले कुटुम्बी) सोम के लिए कलश दृढ़ता से धरा गया। जब सब देव एकत्र होकर, एक मन से, उस ऋषभ (वृषभ) को प्रकट कर, विधिपूर्वक व्यवस्थित करने लगे।
Rishi: Atharvanic tradition (ṛṣi attribution varies by anukramaṇī for AV 9.4; commonly treated as Atharvan/Angirasic material).
Devata: Ṛṣabha (Bull) as power-symbol; secondarily Soma and the collective Devas.
Chandas: Anuṣṭubh (predominant in this section; to be confirmed per pada-count in critical edition).
