AVŚ 20.17.3

विषूवृद् इन्द्रो अमुतेर् उत क्षुधः स इद् रायो मघवा वस्व ईशते । तस्येद् इमे प्रवणे सप्त सिन्धवो वयो वर्धन्ति वृषभस्य शुष्मिणः ॥३॥

viṣūvṛd indro amuter uta kṣudhaḥ sa id rāyo maghavā vasva īśate | tasyed ime pravaṇe sapta sindhavo vayo vardhanti vṛṣabhasya śuṣmiṇaḥ ||3||

Devanagari rendered by HREEM from the edition's roman (IAST) text; the IAST is the edition's own.

From indigence and hunger Indra turns away: Maghavan hath dominion over precious wealth. These the Seven Rivers flowing on their downward path increase the vital vigour of the potent Steer.

Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)This is the translator's rendering of the same verse where it occurs at RV 10.43.3; the wording of this text may differ in places.
