RV 10.42.9

उत प्रहाम् अतिदीव्या जयाति कृतं यच् छ्वघ्नी विचिनोति काले । यो देवकामो न धना रुणद्धि सम् इत् तं राया सृजति स्वधावान् ॥

uta prahām atidīvyā jayāti kṛtaṃ yac chvaghnī vicinoti kāle | yo devakāmo na dhanā ruṇaddhi sam it taṃ rāyā sṛjati svadhāvān ||

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

Yea, by superior play he wins advantage, when he, a gambler, piles his gains in season. Celestial-natured, he o'erwhelms with riches the devotee who keeps not back his treasure.

Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)
