देवेभ्यो हि प्रथमं यज्ञियेभ्यो ऽमृतत्वꣳ सुवसि भागम् उत्तमम् । आद् इद् दामानꣳ सवितर् व्य् ऊर्णुषे ऽनूचीना जीविता मानुषेभ्यः ॥
devebhyo hi prathamaṃ yajñiyebhyo 'mṛtatvam̐ suvasi bhāgam uttamam | ād id dāmānam̐ savitar vy ūrṇuṣe 'nūcīnā jīvitā mānuṣebhyaḥ ||

For thou at first producest for the holy Gods the noblest of all portions, immortality: Thereafter as a gift to men, O Savitar, thou openest existence, life succeeding life.
Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)This is the translator's rendering of the same verse where it occurs at RV 4.54.2; the wording of this text may differ in places.
