4.6.5.4

annameva grahaḥ | annena hīdaṃ sarvaṃ gṛhītaṃ tasmādyāvanto no 'śanamaśnanti te naḥ sarve gṛhītā bhavantyeṣaiva sthitiḥ

The graha, forsooth, is food; for by food everything is kept (grah) here: hence as many as eat our food, all those are kept by us. Such is the natural order of things.

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