Sukta 42
ब्रह्मयज्ञः। ब्रह्म होता ब्रह्म यज्ञा ब्रह्मणा स्वरवो मिताः । अध्वर्युर्ब्रह्मणो जातो ब्रह्मणोऽन्तर्हितं हविः
bráhma-yajñaḥ | bráhma hótā bráhma yajñā́ bráhmaṇā́ sváravo mitā́ḥ | adhvaryúr bráhmaṇo jātó bráhmaṇo ’ntárhitaṃ havíḥ
This is the Brahma-sacrifice. The Hotṛ is brahman; the sacrifices are brahman; by brahman are the tones duly measured. The Adhvaryu is born of brahman; within brahman the oblation is hidden.
இது பிரஹ்ம-யாகம். ஹோதா பிரஹ்மம்; யாகங்கள் பிரஹ்மமே; பிரஹ்மத்தினாலே ஸ்வரங்கள் முறையாக அளக்கப்படுகின்றன. அத்வர்யு பிரஹ்மத்திலிருந்து பிறந்தவன்; பிரஹ்மத்தின் உள்ளே ஹவி (ஆஹுதி) மறைந்துள்ளது.
