RV 7.18.6

पुरोळा इत् तुर्वशो यक्षुर् आसीद् राये मत्स्यासो निशिता अपीव । श्रुष्टिं चक्रुर् भृगवो द्रुह्यवश् च सखा सखायम् अतरद् विषूचोः ॥

puroḷā it turvaśo yakṣur āsīd rāye matsyāso niśitā apīva | śruṣṭiṃ cakrur bhṛgavo druhyavaś ca sakhā sakhāyam atarad viṣūcoḥ ||

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

Eager for spoil was Turvasa Purodas, fain to win wealth, like fishes urged by hunger. The Bhrgus and the Druhyus quickly listened: friend rescued friend mid the two distant peoples.

Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)
