Ṛgveda Saṃhitā 7.61.4

RV 7.61.4

शंसा मित्रस्य वरुणस्य धाम शुष्मो रोदसी बद्बधे महित्वा । अयन् मासा अयज्वनाम् अवीराः प्र यज्ञमन्मा वृजनं तिराते ॥

śaṃsā mitrasya varuṇasya dhāma śuṣmo rodasī badbadhe mahitvā | ayan māsā ayajvanām avīrāḥ pra yajñamanmā vṛjanaṃ tirāte ||

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

I praise the strength of Varuna and Mitra that strength, by mightiness, keeps both worlds asunder. Heroless pass the months of the ungodly he who loves sacrifice makes his home enduring.
