Ṛgveda Saṃhitā 1.89.2

RV 1.89.2

देवानाम् भद्रा सुमतिर् ऋजूयतां देवानां रातिर् अभि नो नि वर्तताम् । देवानां सख्यम् उप सेदिमा वयं देवा न आयुः प्र तिरन्तु जीवसे ॥

devānām bhadrā sumatir ṛjūyatāṃ devānāṃ rātir abhi no ni vartatām | devānāṃ sakhyam upa sedimā vayaṃ devā na āyuḥ pra tirantu jīvase ||

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

May the auspicious favour of the Gods be ours, on us descend the bounty of the righteous Gods. The friendship of the Gods have we devoutly sought: so may the Gods extend our life that we may live.
