प॒वित्रं॑ ते॒ वित॑तं ब्रह्मणस्पते प्र॒भुर्गात्रा॑णि॒ पर्ये॑षि वि॒श्वतः॑ । अत॑प्ततनू॒र्न तदा॒मो अ॑श्नुते शृ॒तास॒ इद्वह॑न्त॒स्तत्समा॑शत
pavitraṃ te vitataṃ brahmaṇaspate prabhurgātrāṇi paryeṣi viśvataḥ ataptatanūrna tadāmo aśnute śaṛtāsa idvahantastatsamāśata
Holy one, spread abroad, O Lord of vessels; you examine limbs everywhere. The unburnt body then does not grasp darkness; those who heard carry these words for many generations alike.
Lord or prayer, your filter is stretched out; you who are the sovereign, enter its members from all sides; the raw (liquid) whose mass is not heated attains not this (filter); it is the boiled (liquids) bearing (the sacrifice) which attain it.
SPREAD is thy cleansing filter, Brahmanaspati: as Prince, thou enterest its limbs from every side. The raw, whose mass hath not been heated gains not this: they only which are dressed, which bear, attain to it.
