Mantra 2
Sukta 103
सं परमान्त्समवमानथो सं द्यामि मध्यमान्। इन्द्रस्तान् पर्यहार्दाम्ना तानग्ने सं द्या त्वम्
sáṃ paramā́nt sám-avamā́n átho sáṃ dyā́mi madhyamā́n | índras tā́n páry-ahār dā́mnā tā́n agne sáṃ dyā́ tvám
The highest I bind together, together the lowest; yea, together I bind the middle. Indra hath smitten them round about with a cord; those, O Agni, do thou bind fast together.
最上のものを結び合わせ、最下のものをも結び合わせる。まことに中ほどのものをも結び合わせる。インドラは縄をもって彼らを四方から打ち縛った。アグニよ、汝はそれらを堅く結び合わせよ。
