14.6.8

bṛhaspatiruvāca |
amartyaṃ yājayitvāhaṃ yājayiṣye na mānuṣam |
marutta gaccha vā mā vā nivṛtto'smyadya yājanāt || 8 ||

Vrihaspati said, 'Having, O Marutta, acted as priest to the Immortals, how can I act as such to mortal men, and whether thou dost depart hence or stay, I tell thee, I have ceased to act as priest to any but the Immortals. O thou of mighty arms, I am unable to act as thy priest now. And according to thy own desire, thou canst appoint any one as thy priest who will perform thy sacrifice.'

Kisari Mohan Ganguli 1883, The Mahabharata of Krishna-Dwaipayana Vyasa
