Shloka 70
निपातयिष्यसे चैतानसुरान् भुवनेश्वर । 'भुवनेश्वर! रुद्र! आप जब इन असुरोंका विनाश कर डालेंगे, तबसे सम्पूर्ण यज्ञकर्मोमें जो पशु (यज्ञके साधनभूत उपकरण) होंगे, वे रुद्रके भाग समझे जायूँगे' ।। स तथोक्तस्तथेत्युक्त्वा देवानां हितकाम्यया
nipātayiṣyase caitān asurān bhuvaneśvara | “bhuvaneśvara! rudra! āpaṃ yadā imān asurān vināśaṃ kariṣyasi, tadā sarveṣu yajñakarmasu ye paśavaḥ (yajñasādhanabhūtā upakaraṇāni) bhaviṣyanti, te rudrabhāgā iti manyiṣyante” || sa tathoktas tathety uktvā devānāṃ hitakāmyayā
ヴィヤーサは言った。「おお、諸世界の主よ！あなたはこれらのアスラを打ち倒されるであろう。さらに、ルドラよ——あなたがこれらのアスラを滅ぼし尽くしたのち、あらゆる祭祀において供えられる獣（祭儀の手段・器具となるもの）は、ルドラの正当な分け前と見なされるであろう。」そう告げられると、彼は神々の安寧を願い、「そのとおりに」と答えた。

The verse frames cosmic and ritual order together: when Rudra destroys forces opposed to the gods, he is accorded a recognized ‘share’ in sacrificial rites. It presents reciprocity between divine protection and ritual entitlement, emphasizing that maintaining dharma includes honoring proper portions (bhāga) within yajña.
Vyāsa narrates a pledge addressed to Rudra: he is to slay certain Asuras, and as a consequence the sacrificial animals/offerings in all yajñas will be counted as Rudra’s portion. Rudra accepts the charge—‘so be it’—motivated by the welfare of the Devas.
