यस्याव॑धीत्पि॒तरं॒ यस्य॑ मा॒तरं॒ यस्य॑ श॒क्रो भ्रात॑रं॒ नात॑ ईषते । वेतीद्व॑स्य॒ प्रय॑ता यतंक॒रो न किल्बि॑षादीषते॒ वस्व॑ आक॒रः
yasyāvadhītpitaraṃ yasya mātaraṃ yasya śakro bhrātaraṃ nāta īṣate vetīdvasya prayatā yataṃkaro na kilbiṣādīṣate vasva ākaraḥ
He whose father was slain, whose mother was slain, whom Shakra does not envy as brother—he strove forth; his anger is not for sin: Vasva is his form.
Śakra does not turn away from him whose father, whose mother, whose brother he has slain, but is willing to accept his offerings; the regulator (of acts), the bestower of riches, does not turn away from iniquity.
The Strong God doth not flee away from him whose sire, whose mother or whose brother he hath done to death. He, the Avenger, seeketh this man's offered gifts: this God, the source of riches, doth not flee from sin.
