RV 7.87.5

तिस्रो द्यावो निहिता अन्तर् अस्मिन् तिस्रो भूमीर् उपराः षड्विधानाः । गृत्सो राजा वरुणश् चक्र एतं दिवि प्रेङ्खं हिरण्ययं शुभे कम् ॥

tisro dyāvo nihitā antar asmin tisro bhūmīr uparāḥ ṣaḍvidhānāḥ | gṛtso rājā varuṇaś cakra etaṃ divi preṅkhaṃ hiraṇyayaṃ śubhe kam ||

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

On him three heavens rest and are supported, and the three earths are there in sixfold order. The wise King Varuna hath made in heaven that Golden Swing to cover it with glory.
