7.2.1.13

tā haike parastādarvācīrupadadhati | pāpmā vai nirṛtirnetpāpmānaṃ nirṛtimanvavāyāmeti na tathā kuryātparācīrevopadadhyātparāñcameva tatpāpmānaṃ nirṛtimapahate

Now some lay (the bricks) down from the farther end towards themselves,--Nirriti (corruption) being evil,--lest they themselves should go the way to corruption. Let him not do so, but let him lay them down in the direction away from him: he thus drives evil, corruption, away from him.

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