RV 10.124.4

बह्वीः समा अकरम् अन्तर् अस्मिन्न् इन्द्रं वृणानः पितरं जहामि । अग्निः सोमो वरुणस् ते च्यवन्ते पर्यावर्द् राष्ट्रं तद् अवाम्य् आयन् ॥

bahvīḥ samā akaram antar asminn indraṃ vṛṇānaḥ pitaraṃ jahāmi | agniḥ somo varuṇas te cyavante paryāvard rāṣṭraṃ tad avāmy āyan ||

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

I tarried many a year within this altar: I leave the Father, for my choice is Indra. Away pass Agni, Varuna and Soma. Rule ever changes: this I come to favour.

Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)
