1.4.2.12

atūrto hotā tūrṇirhavyavāḍiti | na hyetaṃ rakṣāṃsi taranti tasmādāhātūrto hoteti tūrṇirhavyavāḍiti sarvaṃ hyeṣa pāpmānaṃ tarati tasmādāha tūrṇirhavyavāḍiti

Further, 'The unsurpassed Hotri, the surpassing bearer of oblations;' for him the Rakshas do not surpass (tar): for this reason he says 'the unsurpassed (atûrta) Hotri.' 'The surpassing (tûrni, rather 'swift') bearer of oblations,' for he overcomes (tar) every evil: therefore he says 'the surpassing bearer of oblations.'

Julius Eggeling 1882, The Satapatha-Brahmana according to the Text of the Mâdhyandina School (SBE 12, 26, 41, 43, 44)
