Recitation with translationRig Veda 4.25.7

Transliteration

ná revátā paṇínā sakhyám índro ’súnvatā suta-pā́ḥ sáṃ gṛṇīte | ā́sya védaḥ khidáti hánti nagnáṃ ví súsve paktáye kévalo bhūt ||

Translation

इंद्र उस अमीर से दोस्ती नहीं करता जो सोम नहीं चढ़ाता। जो सोम पीता है, वो उसके साथ नहीं होता। इंद्र की समझ से सच साफ हो जाता है, झूठ का कुछ नहीं बचता। जो लोग अच्छे से सोम पीसते हैं, इंद्र उनके लिए पूरा रेडी हो जाता है।
