RV 1.116.9 — Ṛgveda Saṃhitā

RV 1.116.9

परावतं नासत्यानुदेथाम् उच्चाबुध्नं चक्रथुर् जिह्मबारम् । क्षरन्न् आपो न पायनाय राये सहस्राय तृष्यते गोतमस्य ॥

parāvataṃ nāsatyānudethām uccābudhnaṃ cakrathur jihmabāram | kṣarann āpo na pāyanāya rāye sahasrāya tṛṣyate gotamasya ||

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

Ye lifted up the well, O ye Nasatyas, and set the base on high to open downward. Streams flowed for folk of Gotama who thirsted, like rain to bring forth thousandfold abundance.

Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)
