RV 10.139.2

नृचक्षा एष दिवो मध्य आस्त आपप्रिवान् रोदसी अन्तरिक्षम् । स विश्वाचीर् अभि चष्टे घृताचीर् अन्तरा पूर्वम् अपरं च केतुम् ॥

nṛcakṣā eṣa divo madhya āsta āpaprivān rodasī antarikṣam | sa viśvācīr abhi caṣṭe ghṛtācīr antarā pūrvam aparaṃ ca ketum ||

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

Beholding men he sits amid the heaven filling the two world-halves and air's wide region. He looks upon the rich far-spreading pastures between the eastern and the western limit.

Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)
