Let the mother waters further (sūd) us; let the ghee-purifying ones purify us with ghee; since the heavenly ones carry forth all evil (riprá), forth from them, indeed, I come clean, purified.

Whatever, O Varuṇa, that is hateful to the people of the gods human beings practise here, if without intention we have obstructed thine ordinances (dhármān), do not, O god, harm us for that sin.
