Mantra 28

Rishi: Traditional attribution within Vājasaneyin transmission (often treated as Yājñavalkya-lineage for late strata); specific r̥ṣi not marked in the provided excerpt.

Devata: Prajāpati and Indra (with Agni as the oblation-receiver); the mantra’s desiderata also invoke abstract powers (tviṣ, kratu, dakṣa, suṣumnā).

Chandas: Mixed/prose-like yajus-formula (not a fixed ṛgvedic metre).

Translation

เชื้อแห่งน้ำนมถูกนำมาถึงแล้ว; ขอให้พวกเราบริโภคสิ่งนั้นดุจการรีดนม ปีแล้วปีเล่า ยิ่งสูงขึ้นไปอีก. ด้วยรัศมีอันห่อหุ้มทั่ว; เพื่อเจตจำนงแห่งพิธี (kratu); เพื่อความชำนาญ (dakṣa) ของท่าน; เพื่อความผาสุก (suṣumnā) ของท่าน—ประหนึ่งเครื่องบูชาที่ถวายสู่อัคนีโดยชอบ. สิ่งที่อินทระได้ดื่ม สิ่งที่ปรชาปติ (Prajāpati) ได้กิน อันเปี่ยมด้วยน้ำผึ้ง—สิ่งที่ถูกเชิญมาแล้ว ถูกเชิญมาอีก—ข้าพเจ้าบริโภคสิ่งนั้น.
