Translations
Thus, manifold sacrifices are spread out before Brahman at the face of Brahman. Know them all to be born of action, and thus knowing, you shall be liberated.

Thus, various kinds of sacrifices are spread at the mouth of the Vedas. Know them all to be born of action. Knowing this, you will become liberated.
इस प्रकार और भी बहुत तरहके यज्ञ वेदकी वाणीमें विस्तारसे कहे गये हैं। उन सब यज्ञोंको तू कर्मजन्य जान। इस प्रकार जानकर यज्ञ करनेसे तू (कर्मबन्धनसे) मुक्त हो जायगा।Commentary
The word Brahmanah has also been interpreted to mean In the Vedas. Various kinds of sacrifices are spread out at the mouth of Brahman, i.e., they are known from the Vedas. Know that they are born of action, because the Self is beyond action. If you realise that these actions do not concern me, they are not my actin, and I am actionless, you will surely be liberated from the bondage of Samsara by this right knowledge. (Cf.IX.27XIII.15)
