Ṛgveda Saṃhitā 4.25.3

RV 4.25.3

को देवानाम् अवो अद्या वृणीते क आदित्यां अदितिं ज्योतिर् ईट्टे । कस्याश्विनाव् इन्द्रो अग्निः सुतस्यांशोः पिबन्ति मनसाविवेनम् ॥

ko devānām avo adyā vṛṇīte ka ādityāṃ aditiṃ jyotir īṭṭe | kasyāśvināv indro agniḥ sutasyāṃśoḥ pibanti manasāvivenam ||

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

Who claims to-day the Deities' protection, asks Aditi for light, or the Adityas? Of whose pressed stalk of Soma drink the Asvins, Indra, and Agni, well-inclined in spirit?
