jātaḥ - has been born; sutaḥ - a son; hi - indeed; anena - by this son; aṅga - O Hariścandra; mām - unto me; yajasva - offer sacrifice; iti - thus; saḥ - he, Varuṇa; abravīt - said; yadā - when; paśuḥ - an animal; nirdaśaḥ - has passed ten days; syāt - should become; atha - then; medhyaḥ - suitable for offering in sacrifice; bhavet - becomes; iti - thus (Hariścandra said).

Thereafter, when the child was born, Varuṇa approached Hariścandra and said, “Now you have a son. With this son you can offer me a sacrifice.” In answer to this, Hariścandra said, “After ten days have passed since an animal’s birth, the animal becomes fit to be sacrificed.”
