Ṛgveda Saṃhitā 3.2.10

RV 3.2.10

विशां कविं विश्पतिम् मानुषीर् इषः सं सीम् अकृण्वन् स्वधितिं न तेजसे । स उद्वतो निवतो याति वेविषत् स गर्भम् एषु भुवनेषु दीधरत् ॥

viśāṃ kaviṃ viśpatim mānuṣīr iṣaḥ saṃ sīm akṛṇvan svadhitiṃ na tejase | sa udvato nivato yāti veviṣat sa garbham eṣu bhuvaneṣu dīdharat ||

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

Man's sacrificial food hath sharpened like an axe, for brightness, him the Sage of men, the people's Lord, Busied with sacred rites he mounts and he descends. He hath laid down his vital germ within these worlds.

Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)
