RV 7.20.7

यद् इन्द्र पूर्वो अपराय शिक्षन्न् अयज् ज्यायान् कनीयसो देष्णम् । अमृत इत् पर्य् आसीत दूरम् आ चित्र चित्र्यम् भरा रयिं नः ॥

yad indra pūrvo aparāya śikṣann ayaj jyāyān kanīyaso deṣṇam | amṛta it pary āsīta dūram ā citra citryam bharā rayiṃ naḥ ||

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

Whene'er the elder fain would help the younger the greater cometh to the lesser's present. Shall the Immortal sit aloof' inactive? O Wondrous Indra, bring us wondrous riches.

Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)
