RV 9.86.8

राजा समुद्रं नद्यो वि गाहते ऽपाम् ऊर्मिं सचते सिन्धुषु श्रितः । अध्य् अस्थात् सानु पवमानो अव्ययं नाभा पृथिव्या धरुणो महो दिवः ॥

rājā samudraṃ nadyo vi gāhate 'pām ūrmiṃ sacate sindhuṣu śritaḥ | adhy asthāt sānu pavamāno avyayaṃ nābhā pṛthivyā dharuṇo maho divaḥ ||

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

The Sovran dips him in the sea in and the streams, and set in rivers with the waters' wave moves on. High heaven's Sustainer at the central point of earth, raised on the fleecy surface Pavamana stands.
