Ṛgveda Saṃhitā 8.40.6

RV 8.40.6

अपि वृश्च पुराणवद् व्रततेर् इव गुष्पितम् ओजो दासस्य दम्भय । वयं तद् अस्य सम्भृतं वस्व् इन्द्रेण वि भजेमहि नभन्ताम् अन्यके समे ॥

api vṛśca purāṇavad vratater iva guṣpitam ojo dāsasya dambhaya | vayaṃ tad asya sambhṛtaṃ vasv indreṇa vi bhajemahi nabhantām anyake same ||

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

Tear thou asunder, as of old, like tangles of a creeping plant, Demolish thou the Dasa's might. May we with Indra's help divide the treasure he hath gathered up.
