Ṛgveda Saṃhitā 1.151

मित्रं न यं शिम्या गोषु गव्यवः स्वाध्यो विदथे अप्सु जीजनन् । अरेजेतां रोदसी पाजसा गिरा प्रति प्रियं यजतं जनुषाम् अवः ॥

mitraṃ na yaṃ śimyā goṣu gavyavaḥ svādhyo vidathe apsu jījanan | arejetāṃ rodasī pājasā girā prati priyaṃ yajataṃ januṣām avaḥ ||

Heaven and earth trembled at the might and voice of him, whom, loved and Holy One, helper of all mankind, The wise who longed for spoil in fight for kine brought forth with power, a Friend, mid waters, at the sacrifice.

yad dha tyad vām purumīḷhasya sominaḥ pra mitrāso na dadhire svābhuvaḥ | adha kratuṃ vidataṃ gātum arcata uta śrutaṃ vṛṣaṇā pastyāvataḥ ||

As these, like friends, have done this work for you, these prompt servants of Purumilha Soma-offerer, Give mental power to him who sings the sacred song, and hearken, Strong Ones, to the master of the house.
