Sukta 128
ये च॑ दे॒वा अय॑ज॒न्ताथो॒ ये च॑ पराद॒दिः । सूर्यो॒ दिव॑मिव ग॒त्वाय॑ म॒घवा॑ नो॒ वि र॑प्शते
yé ca devā́ áyajan ā́tho yé ca parādadíḥ | sū́ryo dívam iva gatvā́ya maghávā no ví rapśate ||
Both they who sacrificed not—yea, they who cast the rite away—(as) the Sun, as though to heaven he had departed: the Bounteous One doth rend us asunder.
เหล่าเทพผู้มิได้บูชายัญ และเหล่าผู้ทอดทิ้งพิธีบูชา—ดุจดวงอาทิตย์ประหนึ่งได้ไปสู่สวรรค์แล้ว—ท่านผู้เอื้อเฟื้อ (Maghavā) กลับฉีกเราให้แยกจากกัน
