Sukta 4.21
उप यो नमो नमसि स्तभायन्नियर्ति वाचं जनयन्यजध्यै । ऋञ्जसानः पुरुवार उक्थैरेन्द्रं कृण्वीत सदनेषु होता ॥
úpa yó námo námasi stabhāyán níyarti vā́caṃ janáyan yájadhyai | ṛñjasānás puru-vā́ra uktháir índraṃ kṛṇvīta sádanēṣu hótā ||
He who, drawing near with reverence, steadies homage by homage, sets in motion the word and brings it to birth for the act of worship—straightening himself, rich in many openings, with hymns he makes Indra present in the seats as the priest of the offering.
