RV 2.15.2 — Ṛgveda Saṃhitā

RV 2.15.2

अवंशे द्याम् अस्तभायद् बृहन्तम् आ रोदसी अपृणद् अन्तरिक्षम् । स धारयत् पृथिवीम् पप्रथच् च सोमस्य ता मद इन्द्रश् चकार ॥

avaṃśe dyām astabhāyad bṛhantam ā rodasī apṛṇad antarikṣam | sa dhārayat pṛthivīm paprathac ca somasya tā mada indraś cakāra ||

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

High heaven unsupported in space he stablished: he filled the two worlds and the air's mid-region. Earth he upheld, and gave it wide expansion. These things did Indra in the Soma's rapture.

Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)
