RV 2.38.2

विश्वस्य हि श्रुष्टये देव ऊर्ध्वः प्र बाहवा पृथुपाणिः सिसर्ति । आपश् चिद् अस्य व्रत आ निमृग्रा अयं चिद् वातो रमते परिज्मन् ॥

viśvasya hi śruṣṭaye deva ūrdhvaḥ pra bāhavā pṛthupāṇiḥ sisarti | āpaś cid asya vrata ā nimṛgrā ayaṃ cid vāto ramate parijman ||

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

Having gone up on high, the God broadhanded spreads his arms widely forth that all may mark him. Even the waters bend them to his service: even this wind rests in the circling region.

Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)
