Ṛgveda Saṃhitā 5.31.11

RV 5.31.11

सूरश् चिद् रथम् परितक्म्यायाम् पूर्वं करद् उपरं जूजुवांसम् । भरच् चक्रम् एतशः सं रिणाति पुरो दधत् सनिष्यति क्रतुं नः ॥

sūraś cid ratham paritakmyāyām pūrvaṃ karad uparaṃ jūjuvāṃsam | bharac cakram etaśaḥ saṃ riṇāti puro dadhat saniṣyati kratuṃ naḥ ||

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

When night was near its close he carried forward e'en the Sun's chariot backward in its running. Etaga brought his wheel and firmly stays it: setting it eastward he shall give us courage.
