Sukta 3
इट॑स्य ते॒ वि चृ॑ता॒म्यपि॑नद्धमपोर्णु॒वन्। वरु॑णेन॒ समु॑ब्जितां मि॒त्रः प्रा॒तर्व्युऽब्जतु
iṭásya te ví cṛtāmy apínaddham aporṇuván | váruṇena sámubjitāṃ mitráḥ prātár vyùbjatú ||
Of Iṭa’s portion for thee I loosen what is bound on, uncovering it: what is well-fastened with Varuṇa—let Mitra in the morning unfasten it.
Dari bagian Iṭa untukmu, aku melonggarkan apa yang terikat, menyingkapkannya. Apa yang terpasang kuat oleh Varuṇa—biarlah Mitra pada pagi hari melepaskannya.
