Veda line translation

[sulavsingh]

Hi I would really appreciate it if someone could translate this line from arthaveda back into sanskrit. I was reading it in english from a site.

 

IV, 6. Charm against poison

1. The brahmana was the first to to be born, with ten heads and ten mouths. He was the first to drink the soma, that did render poison powerless.

 

Thank you for your help.

If anyone knows where to get this translated please let me know; or any information regarding this at all, I would really appreciate it. This is a matter very personal to me, and I would really appreciate it very much if I could get any help in.

 

Thank you.

Hi SulavSingh,

 

The translation you provided was Maurice Bloomfield's translation of the Atharvaveda, 4.6.1.

 

I have provided both the accented and the unaccented forms of the Sanskrit in ITRANS, Devanagari, and IAST format.
