Rig Veda 1.83.2: Mandala 1, Sukta 83, Mantra 2
Sukta 1.83
आपो न देवीरुप यन्ति होत्रियमवः पश्यन्ति विततं यथा रजः । प्राचैर्देवासः प्र णयन्ति देवयुं ब्रह्मप्रियं जोषयन्ते वरा इव ॥
ā́po ná devī́r úpa yanti hotríyam aváḥ paśyanti ví-tataṃ yáthā rájaḥ | prācáir devā́saḥ prá nayanti deva-yúṃ bráhma-priyaṃ joṣayante varā́ iva ||
Seperti para dewi, air-air menghampiri hotṛ, imam persembahan; mereka memandang hamparan yang terbentang luas, sebagaimana orang melihat ruang terbuka. Dengan kuasa yang memimpin ke hadapan, para dewa menuntun sang pencari-dewa, pecinta brahman, dan memeliharanya seperti para pengantin lelaki memelihara pengantin pilihan.
