Sukta 44
ब॒ह्वि॒३दं रा॑जन् वरु॒णानृ॑तमाह॒ पूरु॑षः । तस्मा॑त् सहस्रवीर्य मु॒ञ्च नः॒ पर्यंह॑सः
bahv ìdaṃ rā́jan varuṇā́nṛtam ā́ha púruṣaḥ | tásmāt sahasravīrya muñcá naḥ páryaṃhasaḥ
Much untruth, O King Varuṇa, hath a man spoken. Therefore, O thousand-mighty, release us from the encompassing guilt and straitness.
हे राजा वरुण, इंसान बहुत झूठ बोल देता है। आप हज़ारों गुण वाले हो, तो हमें इस गुनाह से आज़ाद कर दो। हम यह पिछले पाप से फंस गए हैं, आप हमें छोड़ दो।
