इमे हि ते ब्रह्मकृतः सुते सचा मधौ न मक्ष आसते । इन्द्रे कामं जरितारो वसूयवो रथे न पादमा दधुः ॥ १६७६
ime hi te brahmakṛtaḥ sute sacā madhau na makṣa āsate . indre kāmaṃ jaritāro vasūyavo rathe na pādamā dadhuḥ .. 1676
Devanagari rendered by HREEM from the edition's roman (IAST) text; the IAST is the edition's own.
For here, like flies on honey, these who pray to thee sit by the juice that they have poured. Wealth-craving singers have on Indra set their hope, as men set foot upon a car.
Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)This is the translator's rendering of the same verse where it occurs at RV 7.32.2; the wording of this text may differ in places.
