RV 10.23.5

यो वाचा विवाचो मृध्रवाचः पुरू सहस्राशिवा जघान । तत्-तद् इद् अस्य पौंस्यं गृणीमसि पितेव यस् तविषीं वावृधे शवः ॥

yo vācā vivāco mṛdhravācaḥ purū sahasrāśivā jaghāna | tat-tad id asya pauṃsyaṃ gṛṇīmasi piteva yas taviṣīṃ vāvṛdhe śavaḥ ||

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

We laud and praise his several deeds of valour who, father like, with power hath made us stronger; Who with his voice slew many thousand wicked ones who spake in varied manners with contemptuous cries.

Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)
