Ṛgveda Saṃhitā 4.54.2

RV 4.54.2

देवेभ्यो हि प्रथमं यज्ञियेभ्यो ऽमृतत्वं सुवसि भागम् उत्तमम् । आद् इद् दामानं सवितर् व्य् ऊर्णुषे ऽनूचीना जीविता मानुषेभ्यः ॥

devebhyo hi prathamaṃ yajñiyebhyo 'mṛtatvaṃ suvasi bhāgam uttamam | ād id dāmānaṃ savitar vy ūrṇuṣe 'nūcīnā jīvitā mānuṣebhyaḥ ||

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

For thou at first producest for the holy Gods the noblest of all portions, immortality: Thereafter as a gift to men, O Savitar, thou openest existence, life succeeding life.
