AVŚ 20.91.4

अवो द्वाभ्यां पर एकया गा गुहा तिष्ठन्तीर् अनृतस्य सेतौ । बृहस्पतिस् तमसि ज्योतिर् इछन् उद् उस्रा आकर् वि हि तिस्र आवः ॥४॥

avo dvābhyāṃ para ekayā gā guhā tiṣṭhantīr anṛtasya setau | bṛhaspatis tamasi jyotir ichan ud usrā ākar vi hi tisra āvaḥ ||4||

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

Apart from one, away from two above him, he drave the kine that stood in bonds of falsehood. Brhaspati, seeking light amid the darkness, drave forth the bright cows: three he made apparent.

Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)This is the translator's rendering of the same verse where it occurs at RV 10.67.4; the wording of this text may differ in places.
