Tafsiri

The gods, nourished by the sacrifice, will give you the desired objects. So, he who enjoys the objects given by the gods without offering (in return) to them, is verily a thief.

Maelezo

The verse states the moral consequence of the cycle of sacrifice. What we enjoy in life, food, rain, health, is given to us by powers beyond ourselves. To take these gifts without giving anything back is a kind of theft. The word stena, thief, is strong and deliberate. It suggests that ownership is never absolute; everything we have is received. Many readers extend this beyond ritual to a general ethic of gratitude and responsibility toward nature and society, which sustain each person's life.
