Ṛgveda Saṃhitā 4.53.4

RV 4.53.4

अदाभ्यो भुवनानि प्रचाकशद् व्रतानि देवः सविताभि रक्षते । प्रास्राग् बाहू भुवनस्य प्रजाभ्यो धृतव्रतो महो अज्मस्य राजति ॥

adābhyo bhuvanāni pracākaśad vratāni devaḥ savitābhi rakṣate | prāsrāg bāhū bhuvanasya prajābhyo dhṛtavrato maho ajmasya rājati ||

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

Lighting all living creatures, ne'er to be deceived, Savitar, God, protects each holy ordinance. He hath stretched out his arms to all the folk of earth, and, with his laws observed, rules his own mighty course.
