Rig Veda 10.124.3 — Mandala 10, Sukta 124, Mantra 3
Sukta 10.124
Rishi: Traditionally connected with themes of Indra–Varuṇa/Asura transition in RV 10.124; specific r̥ṣi attribution varies in later indices (needs edition-specific confirmation).
Devata: Varuṇa/Asura (sovereign of Ṛta) with transitional focus toward Indra in the surrounding verses.
Chandas: Triṣṭubh (probable for RV 10.124; verify pada syllable-count in a critical metrical scan).
Samhita Patha (Devanagari)
पश्यन्नन्यस्या अतिथिं वयाया ऋतस्य धाम वि मिमे पुरूणि । शंसामि पित्रे असुराय शेवमयज्ञियाद्यज्ञियं भागमेमि ॥
Transliteration
páśyann anyásyā átithiṃ vayā́yā ṛtásya dhā́ma ví mime purū́ṇi | śáṃsāmi pit́re ásurāya śévam ayajñiyā́d yajñíyaṃ bhā́gam emi ||
Translation
Vendo o Hóspede de outra (potência) e o movimento de largas asas, medi muitas moradas do Ṛta. Ao Pai, ao Asura, proclamo um bem auspicioso; do que não é digno de sacrifício avanço para a porção verdadeiramente sacrificial.
