Mantra 57
Sukta 2
एतत् त्वा वासः प्रथमं न्वागन्नपैतदूह यदिहाबिभः पुरा। इष्टापूर्तमनुसंक्राम विद्वान् यत्र ते दत्तं बहुधा विबन्धुषु
etát tvā vā́saḥ prathamáṃ nv ā́gan apáitád ūha yád ihā́bibháḥ purā́ | iṣṭāpūrtám ánu sáṃkrāma vidvā́n yátra te dáttaṃ bahudhā́ víbandhuṣu
This garment hath now first come unto thee: bear thou it off, (and) bear off whatever fear thou hadst here of old. Knowing, pass thou along after thy iṣṭa and pūrta, where thy gifts are bestowed in many wise among thy several kindred.
Эта одежда ныне впервые пришла к тебе: унеси её прочь — и унеси прочь всякий страх, который ты здесь прежде носил. Зная, переходи вслед за своим iṣṭa и pūrta, туда, где твои дары раздаются многими способами среди твоих родичей.
