AVŚ 20.17.9

उज् जायतां परशु ज्योतिषा सह भूया ऋतस्य सुदुघा पुराणवत् । वि रोचताम् अरुषो भानुना शुचिः स्वर् न शुक्रं शुशुचीत सत्पतिः ॥९॥

uj jāyatāṃ paraśu jyotiṣā saha bhūyā ṛtasya sudughā purāṇavat | vi rocatām aruṣo bhānunā śuciḥ svar na śukraṃ śuśucīta satpatiḥ ||9||

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

Let the keen axe come forth together with the light: here be, as erst, the teeming cow of sacrifice. Let the Red God shine bright with his refulgent ray, and let the Lord of heroes glow like heaven's clear sheen.

Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)This is the translator's rendering of the same verse where it occurs at RV 10.43.9; the wording of this text may differ in places.
