Recitation with translationRig Veda 10.98.4

ā nó drapsā́ mádhumanto viśántv índra dehy ádhirathaṃ sahásram | ní ṣīda hótram ṛtuthā́ yajasva devā́n devāpe havíṣā saparya ||

आसमान से मीठा पानी हम्मे मिलता रहे। इंद्र से दुआ है कि वो हम्मे ताकत दे, एक से ज़्यादा। पुजारी की जगह बैठ के सही वक़्त पर पूजा करो। भगवान को भोग लगाओ, देवापि, ताकि सब काम सही से हो।
