RV 5.41.17

इति चिन् नु प्रजायै पशुमत्यै देवासो वनते मर्त्यो व आ देवासो वनते मर्त्यो वः । अत्रा शिवां तन्वो धासिम् अस्या जरां चिन् मे निरृतिर् जग्रसीत ॥

iti cin nu prajāyai paśumatyai devāso vanate martyo va ā devāso vanate martyo vaḥ | atrā śivāṃ tanvo dhāsim asyā jarāṃ cin me nirṛtir jagrasīta ||

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

Thus thinking, O ye Gods, the mortal wins you to give him increase of his herds of cattle: the mortal wins him, O ye Gods, your favour. Here he wins wholesome food to feed this body: as for mine old age, Nirrti consume it
