Rig Veda 10.93.8: Mandala 10, Sukta 93, Mantra 8

Sukta 10.93

Devata: R̥bhus (triad); imagery overlaps with Indraic ‘harī’ and vājin (force-bearer)
Chandas: Gāyatrī/Anuṣṭubh not applicable; likely Triṣṭubh/related (needs verification for 10.93.1 specifically)

ऋभुॠभुक्षा ऋभुर्विधतो मद आ ते हरी जूजुवानस्य वाजिना । दुष्टरं यस्य साम चिदृधग्यज्ञो न मानुषः ॥

ṛbhúṛbhukṣā́ ṛbhúrvīdható máda ā́ te hárī jūjuvāná sya vā́jinā | duṣṭáraṃ yásya sā́ma cid ṛ́dhag yajñó ná mā́nuṣaḥ ||

R̥bhu, R̥bhukṣa, R̥bhu – die Wonne des Ordners kommt heran; zu dir, o Herr der Fülle, sind deine beiden Rosse angespannt, die des Eifrigen, des Sieghaften. Schwer zu durchqueren ist seine Harmonie (sāman), und das Opfer (yajña) wird zu einer eigenen, nichtmenschlichen Macht.
