देवान्भावयतानेन ते देवा भावयन्तु वः | परस्परं भावयन्तः श्रेयः परमवाप्स्यथ
devānbhāvayatānena te devā bhāvayantu vaḥ . parasparaṃ bhāvayantaḥ śreyaḥ paramavāpsyatha
“你们以此滋养众神，愿众神亦滋养你们。相互滋养，你们将获得至高福祉。”
'You nourish the gods with this. Let those gods nourish you. Nourishing one another, you shall attain the supreme Good.'
此节描述了一种共生关系：人类通过祭祀滋养众神，而众神则以雨水等回馈人类，这种相互滋养最终将引导众生获得至高无上的福祉。
Deva literally means the shining one. By this sacrifice you nourish the gods such as Indra. The gods shall nourish you with rain? etc. the highest good is the attainment of the knowledge of the Self which frees one from the round of births and deaths. The highest good may mean the attainment of heaven also. The fruit depends upon the motive of the aspirant.
