RV 8.40.11

तं शिशीता स्वध्वरं सत्यं सत्वानम् ऋत्वियम् । उतो नु चिद् य ओहत आण्डा शुष्णस्य भेदत्य् अजैः स्वर्वतीर् अपो नभन्ताम् अन्यके समे ॥

taṃ śiśītā svadhvaraṃ satyaṃ satvānam ṛtviyam | uto nu cid ya ohata āṇḍā śuṣṇasya bhedaty ajaiḥ svarvatīr apo nabhantām anyake same ||

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

Inspire him worshipped with fair rites, the glorious Hero truly brave. He brake in pieces Susna's brood who still expected not the stroke, and won for us the heavenly streams. Let all the others die away.

Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)
