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.

Daripada bahagian Iṭa untukmu, aku melonggarkan apa yang terikat, lalu menyingkapkannya. Apa yang dipasak kukuh oleh Varuṇa—biarlah Mitra pada waktu pagi meleraikannya.
