Sukta 1.151
प्र सा क्षितिरसुर या महि प्रिय ऋतावानावृतमा घोषथो बृहत् । युवं दिवो बृहतो दक्षमाभुवं गां न धुर्युप युञ्जाथे अपः ॥
prá sā́ kṣitír asura yā́ máhi priyā́ ṛtā́vānāv ṛtám ā́ ghoṣatho bṛhát | yuváṃ divó bṛható dákṣam ā́bhuvaṃ gā́ṃ na dhury úpa yuñjāthe ápaḥ ||
This great and beloved sovereignty, O Asura-powers, you proclaim as the Vast Truth, you who are possessed of ṛta. You two have become the mighty skill of the wide heaven; and you yoke the Waters like a draught-cow to the yoke—making the currents serve the work.
