ऋ॒तेना॑दि॒त्यास्ति॑ष्ठन्ति दि॒वि सोमो॒ अधि॑ श्रि॒तः ॥
By truth the earth is held firm, by the sun the sky is held firm. By cosmic order the Ādityas stand; in the sky Soma is established.

अथो॒ नक्ष॑त्राणामे॒षामु॒पस्थे॒ सोम॒ आहि॑तः ॥
Through Soma the Ādityas are mighty, and through Soma the vast earth is strong. And in the lap of these stars Soma is set firm.
10.85.3

सोमं॒ यं ब्र॒ह्माणो॑ वि॒दुर्न तस्या॑श्नाति॒ कश्च॒न ॥
He who has drunk thinks he has Soma, when they crush the herb. The Soma that the priests know, no one at all eats of it.

ग्राव्णा॒मिच्छृ॒ण्वन्ति॑ष्ठसि॒ न ते॑ अश्नाति॒ पार्थि॑वः ॥
Guarded with coverings and sacred formulas, O Soma, you are protected. Hearing the sound of the pressing-stones, you stand; no earthly mortal eats you.

वा॒युः सोम॑स्य रक्षि॒ता समा॑नां॒ मास॒ आकृ॑तिः ॥

चित्ति॑रा उप॒बर्ह॑णं॒ चक्षु॑रा अ॒भ्यञ्ज॑नम् ।
द्यौर्भूमिः॒ कोश॑ आसी॒द्यदया॑त्सू॒र्या पति॑म् ॥
The comb was her adornment, her eyes her collyrium; heaven and earth were her dowry-chest when Sūryā went to her husband.
10.85.8
स्तोमा॑ आसन्प्रति॒धयः॑ कु॒रीरं॒ छन्द॑ ओप॒शः ।
सू॒र्याया॑ अ॒श्विना॑ व॒राग्निरा॑सीत्पुरोग॒वः ॥
The hymns were the responsive chants, the Kurīra and the meter the Opaśa; the Aśvins were Sūryā's two bridegrooms, and Agni went before as leader.
10.85.9
सोमो॑ वधू॒युर॑भवद॒श्विना॑स्तामु॒भा व॒रा ।
सू॒र्यां यत्पत्ये॒ शंस॑न्तीं॒ मन॑सा सवि॒ताद॑दात् ॥
Soma became eager for the bride; both Aśvins became the two bridegrooms, when Savitṛ with his mind gave Sūryā, who praised, to her husband.
10.85.10
मनो॑ अस्या॒ अन॑ आसी॒द्द्यौरा॑सीदु॒त छ॒दिः ।
शु॒क्राव॑न॒ड्वाहा॑वास्तां॒ यदया॑त्सू॒र्या गृ॒हम् ॥

श्रोत्रं॑ ते च॒क्रे आ॑स्तां दि॒वि पन्था॑श्चराच॒रः ॥
Your two oxen, made known by the Ṛc and the Sāman, are these two Sāman-chants here; your ear was your two wheels, and in heaven were the paths moving and unmoving.

शुची॑ ते च॒क्रे या॒त्या व्या॒नो अक्ष॒ आह॑तः ।
अनो॑ मन॒स्मयं॑ सू॒र्यारो॑हत्प्रय॒ती पति॑म् ॥

अ॒घासु॑ हन्यन्ते॒ गावोऽर्जु॑न्योः॒ पर्यु॑ह्यते ॥
The procession of Sūryā's bride went forth, which Savitar had sent. Cows are slain in the unlucky places; she is led around between the two Arjunī.

O Aśvins, when you two came asking with the three-wheeled chariot to the bridal carriage of Sūryā, all the gods knew that concerning you two. Pūṣan chose the parents as a son.

यदया॑तं शुभस्पती वरे॒यं सू॒र्यामुप॑ ।
क्वैकं॑ च॒क्रं वा॑मासी॒त्क्व॑ दे॒ष्ट्राय॑ तस्थथुः ॥
When you two went, O lords of the auspicious, I would choose Sūryā. Where was your one wheel? Where did you two stand for the goal of the race?

अथैकं॑ च॒क्रं यद्गुहा॒ तद॑द्धा॒तय॒ इद्वि॑दुः ॥
Your two wheels, O Sūryā, the brahmans know in due season. But that one wheel, because it is hidden, only the truly knowing know.
10.85.17
सू॒र्यायै॑ दे॒वेभ्यो॑ मि॒त्राय॒ वरु॑णाय च ।
ये भू॒तस्य॒ प्रचे॑तस इ॒दं तेभ्यो॑ऽकरं॒ नमः॑ ॥

विश्वा॑न्य॒न्यो भुव॑नाभि॒चष्ट॑ ऋ॒तूँर॒न्यो वि॒दध॑ज्जायते॒ पुनः॑ ॥

10.85.21
उदी॒र्ष्वातः॒ पति॑वती॒ ह्ये॑षा वि॒श्वाव॑सुं॒ नम॑सा गी॒र्भिरी॑ळे ।
अ॒न्यामि॑च्छ पितृ॒षदं॒ व्य॑क्तां॒ स ते॑ भा॒गो ज॒नुषा॒ तस्य॑ विद्धि ॥

सम॑र्य॒मा सं भगो॑ नो निनीया॒त्सं जा॑स्प॒त्यं सु॒यम॑मस्तु देवाः ॥
May our paths be unobstructed and straight, by which companions come to us and the bridegroom's choice is made. May Aryaman lead us together, may Bhaga lead us together; O gods, may the conjugal life be well governed.

एध॑न्ते अस्या ज्ञा॒तयः॒ पति॑र्ब॒न्धेषु॑ बध्यते ॥
This kṛtyā (magical snare) becomes dark-and-red; her attachment is scattered apart. Her kinsmen flourish, and the husband is bound in fetters.

कृ॒त्यैषा प॒द्वती॑ भू॒त्वी आ जा॒या वि॑शते॒ पति॑म् ॥

सू॒र्यां यो ब्र॒ह्मा वि॒द्यात्स इद्वाधू॑यमर्हति ॥
This ground food is bitter; it is poisonous and not fit to eat. Only the brahman who knows Sūryā truly deserves the bridal gift.

तां पू॑षञ्च्छि॒वत॑मा॒मेर॑यस्व॒ यस्यां॒ बीजं॑ मनु॒ष्या॑ वप॑न्ति ।
या न॑ ऊ॒रू उ॑श॒ती वि॒श्रया॑ते॒ यस्या॑मु॒शन्तः॑ प्र॒हरा॑म॒ शेप॑म् ॥
