Recitation with translationRig Veda 2.25.2

vīrébhir vīrā́n vanavad vanuṣyató góbhī rayíṃ paprathád bódhati tmánā | tókaṃ ca tásya tánayaṃ ca vardhate yaṃ-yáṃ yújaṃ kṛṇuté bráhmaṇas-pátiḥ ||

वीरांच्या साहाय्याने तो प्रयत्नशीलासाठी वीरांना जिंकतो; गोभिः (किरण/गव) यांच्या द्वारे तो रयि (समृद्धी) विस्तारतो आणि आपल्या आत्मबलाने तिला जागवतो. मग त्याचा तोक (वंश) आणि त्याचा तनय (संतती) वाढतो—ज्याच्यासाठी ब्रह्मणस्पती प्रत्येक युज् (सहकारी शक्ती) घडवतो.
