Ṛgveda Saṃhitā 1.85.7

RV 1.85.7

ते ऽवर्धन्त स्वतवसो महित्वना नाकं तस्थुर् उरु चक्रिरे सदः । विष्णुर् यद् धावद् वृषणम् मदच्युतं वयो न सीदन्न् अधि बर्हिषि प्रिये ॥

te 'vardhanta svatavaso mahitvanā nākaṃ tasthur uru cakrire sadaḥ | viṣṇur yad dhāvad vṛṣaṇam madacyutaṃ vayo na sīdann adhi barhiṣi priye ||

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

Strong in their native strength to greatness have they grown, stepped to the firmament and made their dwelling wide. When Visnu saved the Soma bringing wild delight, the Maruts sate like birds on their dear holy grass.
