RV 9.78.1

प्र राजा वाचं जनयन्न् असिष्यदद् अपो वसानो अभि गा इयक्षति । गृभ्णाति रिप्रम् अविर् अस्य तान्वा शुद्धो देवानाम् उप याति निष्कृतम् ॥

pra rājā vācaṃ janayann asiṣyadad apo vasāno abhi gā iyakṣati | gṛbhṇāti ripram avir asya tānvā śuddho devānām upa yāti niṣkṛtam ||

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

Raising his voice the King hath flowed upon his way: invested with the waters he would win the kine. The fleece retains his solid parts as though impure, and bright and cleansed he seeks the special place of Gods.

Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)
