Sukta 21

न ता अर्वा॑ रे॒णुक॑काटोऽश्नुते॒ न सं॑स्कृत॒त्रमुप॑ यन्ति॒ ता अ॒भि। उ॒रु॒गा॒यमभ॑यं॒ तस्य॒ ता अनु॒ गावो॒ मर्त॑स्य॒ वि च॑रन्ति॒ यज्व॑नः

Recitation with translationAtharva Veda 4.21.4

ná tā́ arvā́ reṇukakā́ṭo 'śnute ná saṃskṛtatrám úpa yanti tā́ abhí | urugāyám abháyaṃ tásya tā́ ánu gā́vo mártasya ví caranti yájvanaḥ

No horse—Reṇukakāṭa—overtakes them; no well-laid snare comes up against them. Under the Wide-going One’s fearlessness, after him, the cows of the mortal sacrificer range abroad unhindered.

မည်သည့်မြင်းမျှ ထိုနွားများကို မလိုက်နိုင်။ ကောင်းစွာချထားသော ကွင်းဆက်များသည် ထိုနွားများကို မဖမ်းနိုင်။ ကျယ်ပြန့်စွာသွားလာသော နတ်မင်း၏ ဘေးမဲ့အောက်တွင် ထိုနတ်မင်းနောက်သို့ လိုက်၍ ယဇ်ပူဇော်သူ၏ နွားများသည် အတားအဆီးမရှိ လှည့်လည်ကြ၏။
