यो वाचा विवाचो मृध्रवाचः पुरू सहस्राशिवा जघान । तत्तद् इद् अस्य पौंस्यं गृणीमसि पितेव यस् तविषीं वावृधे शवः ॥६॥

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

We laud and praise his several deeds of valour who, father like, with power hath made us stronger; Who with his voice slew many thousand wicked ones who spake in varied manners with contemptuous cries.

Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)This is the translator's rendering of the same verse where it occurs at RV 10.23.5; the wording of this text may differ in places.
