RV 4.23.3 — Ṛgveda Saṃhitā

RV 4.23.3

कथा शृणोति हूयमानम् इन्द्रः कथा शृण्वन्न् अवसाम् अस्य वेद । का अस्य पूर्वीर् उपमातयो ह कथैनम् आहुः पपुरिं जरित्रे ॥

kathā śṛṇoti hūyamānam indraḥ kathā śṛṇvann avasām asya veda | kā asya pūrvīr upamātayo ha kathainam āhuḥ papuriṃ jaritre ||

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

How heareth Indra offered invocation? How, hearing, marketh he the invoker's wishes? What are his ancient acts of bounty? Wherefore call they him One who filleth full the singer?

Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)
