RV 8.40.5

प्र ब्रह्माणि नभाकवद् इन्द्राग्निभ्याम् इरज्यत । या सप्तबुध्नम् अर्णवं जिह्मबारम् अपोर्णुत इन्द्र ईशान ओजसा नभन्ताम् अन्यके समे ॥

pra brahmāṇi nabhākavad indrāgnibhyām irajyata | yā saptabudhnam arṇavaṃ jihmabāram aporṇuta indra īśāna ojasā nabhantām anyake same ||

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

To Indra and to Agni send your prayers, as was Nabhaka's wont,- Who open with sideway opening the sea with its foundations seven-Indra all powerful in his might.

Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)
