Ṛgveda Saṃhitā 3.39.5

RV 3.39.5

सखा ह यत्र सखिभिर् नवग्वैर् अभिज्ञ्व् आ सत्वभिर् गा अनुग्मन् । सत्यं तद् इन्द्रो दशभिर् दशग्वैः सूर्यं विवेद तमसि क्षियन्तम् ॥

sakhā ha yatra sakhibhir navagvair abhijñv ā satvabhir gā anugman | satyaṃ tad indro daśabhir daśagvaiḥ sūryaṃ viveda tamasi kṣiyantam ||

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

Where as a Friend with friendly men, Navagvas, with heroes, on his knees he sought the cattle. There, verily with ten Dasagvas Indra found the Sun lying hidden in the darkness.
