Sukta 91

अ॒वो द्वाभ्यां॑ प॒र एक॑या॒ गा गुहा॒ तिष्ठ॑न्ती॒रनृ॑तस्य॒ सेतौ॑ । बृह॒स्पति॒स्तम॑सि॒ ज्योति॑रि॒च्छन्नुदु॒स्रा आक॒र्वि हि ति॒स्र आवः॑

Recitation with translationAtharva Veda 20.91.4

avó dvā́bhyāṃ pará ékayā gā́ guhā́ tíṣṭhantīr ánṛtasya sétau | bṛ́haspátis támasi jyótiḥ icchán úd usrā́ ākárvi hí tísra ā́vaḥ

With help of two, and passing with but one, he brought forth the cows that stood concealed within the cave, at Falsehood’s barrier. Bṛhaspati, seeking light amid the darkness, drew up the ruddy ones: for threefold are his aids.

दो की मदद से और एक से आगे बढ़के, वो गायें बाहर लाया जो गुफा में छुपी थीं। झूठ की दीवार थी वहाँ। बृहस्पति ने अँधेरे में रोशनी ढूँढ़ी। लाल गायें बाहर आईं, क्योंकि उसकी तीन तरह की मदद है।
