Ṛgveda Saṃhitā 1.164.1

RV 1.164.1

अस्य वामस्य पलितस्य होतुस् तस्य भ्राता मध्यमो अस्त्य् अश्नः । तृतीयो भ्राता घृतपृष्ठो अस्यात्रापश्यं विश्पतिं सप्तपुत्रम् ॥

asya vāmasya palitasya hotus tasya bhrātā madhyamo asty aśnaḥ | tṛtīyo bhrātā ghṛtapṛṣṭho asyātrāpaśyaṃ viśpatiṃ saptaputram ||

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

Of this benignant Priest, with eld grey-coloured, the brother midmost of the three is lightning. The third is he whose back with oil is sprinkled. Here I behold the Chief with seven male children.
