RV 2.1.8

त्वाम् अग्ने दम आ विश्पतिं विशस् त्वां राजानं सुविदत्रम् ऋञ्जते । त्वं विश्वानि स्वनीक पत्यसे त्वं सहस्राणि शता दश प्रति ॥

tvām agne dama ā viśpatiṃ viśas tvāṃ rājānaṃ suvidatram ṛñjate | tvaṃ viśvāni svanīka patyase tvaṃ sahasrāṇi śatā daśa prati ||

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

To thee, the people's Lord within the house, the folk press forward to their King most graciously inclined. Lord of the lovely look, all things belong to thee: ten, hundred, yea, a thousand are outweighed by thee.

Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)
