Sanskrit recitationRig Veda 7.33.3

Transliteration

evén nu kaṃ síndhum ebhís tatāra evén nu kaṃ bhedám ebhír jaghāna | evén nu kaṃ dāśarājñé sudā́saṃ prā́vad índro bráhmaṇā vo vasiṣṭhāḥ ||

Translation

Demikianlah sungguh ia menyeberangi sungai dengan (para penolong) ini; demikianlah sungguh ia menewaskan Bheda dengan ini. Demikianlah sungguh, dalam peperangan Sepuluh Raja, Indra melindungi Sudās dengan brahman kamu, wahai Vasiṣṭha—dengan daya Sabda yang diilhamkan.
