Rig Veda 2.39.1: Mandala 2, Sukta 39, Mantra 1
Sukta 2.39
ग्रावाणेव तदिदर्थं जरेथे गृध्रेव वृक्षं निधिमन्तमच्छ । ब्रह्माणेव विदथ उक्थशासा दूतेव हव्या जन्या पुरुत्रा ॥
grā́vāṇeva tád id árthaṃ jarethe gṛ́dhreva vṛkṣáṃ nidhí-mantam áccha | brahmā́ṇeva vidátha uktha-śā́sā dū́teva havyā́ janyā́ puru-trā́ ||
Seperti batu-batu pemeras, kalian berdua digerakkan bagi tujuan yang sejati; seperti para pencari yang bernafsu, kalian mendatangi pohon yang sarat harta. Seperti para brahmana, kalian bergerak dalam perhimpunan-perhimpunan dengan kuasa himne; seperti para utusan, kalian membawa persembahan manusia ke banyak penjuru.
