10.14.1
प॒रे॒यि॒वांसं॑ प्र॒वतो॑ म॒हीरनु॑ ब॒हुभ्यः॒ पन्था॑मनुपस्पशा॒नम् ।
वै॒व॒स्व॒तं सं॒गम॑नं॒ जना॑नां य॒मं राजा॑नं ह॒विषा॑ दुवस्य ॥
Serve with oblation Yama, Vivasvān's son, who went ahead by wide paths for many, the gathering-place of people, the king.
10.14.2
य॒मो नो॑ गा॒तुं प्र॑थ॒मो वि॑वेद॒ नैषा गव्यू॑ति॒रप॑भर्त॒वा उ॑ ।
यत्रा॑ नः॒ पूर्वे॑ पि॒तरः॑ परे॒युरे॒ना ज॑ज्ञा॒नाः प॒थ्या॑ अनु॒ स्वाः ॥
Yama first found the way for us; this expanse is not to be brought back. Where our former fathers went, following their own kin born of him, they went along the paths.
10.14.3
मात॑ली क॒व्यैर्य॒मो अङ्गि॑रोभि॒र्बृह॒स्पति॒र्ऋक्व॑भिर्वावृधा॒नः ।
यांश्च॑ दे॒वा वा॑वृ॒धुर्ये च॑ दे॒वान्त्स्वाहा॒न्ये स्व॒धया॒न्ये म॑दन्ति ॥
With poetic hymns Mātalī, Yama with the Aṅgirases, Bṛhaspati with the Ṛkvans are exalted. Those who exalted the gods, and those who reach the gods with svāhā, and others with svadhā, rejoice.
10.14.4
इ॒मं य॑म प्रस्त॒रमा हि सीदाङ्गि॑रोभिः पि॒तृभिः॑ संविदा॒नः ।
आ त्वा॒ मन्त्राः॑ कविश॒स्ता व॑हन्तु ए॒ना रा॑जन्ह॒विषा॑ मादयस्व ॥
O Yama, sit down on this stone-seat, in agreement with the Aṅgirases and the fathers. May the formulas praised by poets bring you hither; O king, be gladdened with this oblation.
10.14.5
अङ्गि॑रोभि॒रा ग॑हि य॒ज्ञिये॑भि॒र्यम॑ वैरू॒पैरि॒ह मा॑दयस्व ।
विव॑स्वन्तं हुवे॒ यः पि॒ता ते॑ अ॒स्मिन्य॒ज्ञे ब॒र्हिष्या नि॒षद्य॑ ॥
Come hither with the Aṅgirases, O Yama, rejoice here with the sacrifice-worthy Vairūpas. I call upon Vivasvān, your father, sitting down upon the sacred grass in this sacrifice.
10.14.6
अङ्गि॑रसो नः पि॒तरो॒ नव॑ग्वा॒ अथ॑र्वाणो॒ भृग॑वः सो॒म्यासः॑ ।
तेषां॑ व॒यं सु॑म॒तौ य॒ज्ञिया॑ना॒मपि॑ भ॒द्रे सौ॑मन॒से स्या॑म ॥
Our fathers, the Aṅgirases, Navagvas, Atharvans, Bhṛgus, the soma-related ones—may we be in the favor of those worthy of sacrifice, and in their auspicious good-will.
10.14.7
प्रेहि॒ प्रेहि॑ प॒थिभिः॑ पू॒र्व्येभि॒र्यत्रा॑ नः॒ पूर्वे॑ पि॒तरः॑ परे॒युर् ।
उ॒भा राजा॑ना स्व॒धया॒ मद॑न्ता य॒मं प॑श्यासि॒ वरु॑णं च दे॒वम् ॥
Go forth, go forth by the ancient paths on which our earlier fathers went before. The two kings rejoice in the svadhā offering; you shall see Yama and the god Varuṇa.
10.14.8
सं ग॑च्छस्व पि॒तृभिः॒ सं य॒मेने॑ष्टापू॒र्तेन॑ पर॒मे व्यो॑मन् ।
हि॒त्वाया॑व॒द्यं पुन॒रस्त॒मेहि॒ सं ग॑च्छस्व त॒न्वा॑ सु॒वर्चाः॑ ॥
Join the fathers, join Yama and the merit of sacrifice and gifts in the highest vault of heaven. Leave behind what is faulty, come back again home; join with a body of fair lustre.
10.14.9
अपे॑त॒ वी॑त॒ वि च॑ सर्प॒तातो॑ अ॒स्मा ए॒तं पि॒तरो॑ लो॒कम॑क्रन् ।
अहो॑भिर॒द्भिर॒क्तुभि॒र्व्य॑क्तं य॒मो द॑दात्यव॒सान॑मस्मै ॥
Depart, go apart, move away from here. For him the fathers made this world; by the days, by the waters, by the dawns made clear, Yama gives him a resting place.
10.14.10
अति॑ द्रव सारमे॒यौ श्वानौ॑ चतुर॒क्षौ श॒बलौ॑ सा॒धुना॑ प॒था ।
अथा॑ पि॒तॄन्त्सु॑वि॒दत्राँ॒ उपे॑हि य॒मेन॒ ये स॑ध॒मादं॒ मद॑न्ति ॥
Run past the two dogs of Sārameya, the four-eyed and the spotted, along the good path. Then approach the bounteous fathers, with Yama, who rejoice together at the gladdening feast.
10.14.11
यौ ते॒ श्वानौ॑ यम रक्षि॒तारौ॑ चतुर॒क्षौ प॑थि॒रक्षी॑ नृ॒चक्ष॑सौ ।
ताभ्या॑मेनं॒ परि॑ देहि राजन्त्स्व॒स्ति चा॑स्मा अनमी॒वं च॑ धेहि ॥
Yama, your two dogs are guardians, four-eyed, path-guarding, watching over men. Into their keeping give him on every side, O king; and grant him well-being and establish him free from disease.
10.14.12
उ॒रू॒ण॒साव॑सु॒तृपा॑ उदुम्ब॒लौ य॒मस्य॑ दू॒तौ च॑रतो॒ जनाँ॒ अनु॑ ।
ताव॒स्मभ्यं॑ दृ॒शये॒ सूर्या॑य॒ पुन॑र्दाता॒मसु॑म॒द्येह भ॒द्रम् ॥
The two broad-striding, breath-stealing messengers of Yama wander among the people. May those two give us life again, for seeing the sun; may they grant good here today.
10.14.13
य॒माय॒ सोमं॑ सुनुत य॒माय॑ जुहुता ह॒विः ।
य॒मं ह॑ य॒ज्ञो ग॑च्छति अ॒ग्निदू॑तो॒ अरं॑कृतः ॥
Press the soma for Yama, offer the oblation for Yama. The sacrifice, with Agni as its messenger and duly prepared, indeed goes to Yama.
10.14.14
य॒माय॑ घृ॒तव॑द्ध॒विर्जु॒होत॒ प्र च॑ तिष्ठत ।
स नो॑ दे॒वेष्वा य॑मद्दी॒र्घमायुः॒ प्र जी॒वसे॑ ॥

इ॒दं नम॒ ऋषि॑भ्यः पूर्व॒जेभ्यः॒ पूर्वे॑भ्यः पथि॒कृद्भ्यः॑ ॥
Offer the honey-sweetest oblation to King Yama. This homage is to the seers, the former-born, the ancient ones, and the path-makers.

With the threefold ones, the six wide (worlds) fall into the one great (truth). The triṣṭubh, the gāyatrī, and all the meters — they are placed in Yama.
