Rig Veda 10.149.2: Mandala 10, Sukta 149, Mantra 2
Sukta 10.149
यत्रा समुद्रः स्कभितो व्यौनदपां नपात्सविता तस्य वेद । अतो भूरत आ उत्थितं रजोऽतो द्यावापृथिवी अप्रथेताम् ॥
yátrā samudráḥ skabhitó vyàunad apā́ṃ napāt savitā́ tásya veda | áto bhū́r áta ā́ utthítaṃ rájo 'to dyā́vā-pṛthivī́ aprathetām ||
Where the ocean, propped, spread out—Savitṛ, child of the waters, knows that. From that arose the Earth; from that the expanse was lifted; from that Heaven-and-Earth were widened: thus the ordered worlds came to manifestation.
