Rig Veda 3.4.7: Mandala 3, Sukta 4, Mantra 7
Sukta 3.4
दैव्या होतारा प्रथमा न्यृञ्जे सप्त पृक्षासः स्वधया मदन्ति । ऋतं शंसन्त ऋतमित्त आहुरनु व्रतं व्रतपा दीध्यानाः ॥
daivyā́ hótārā prathamā́ ny ṛ́ñje saptá pṛkṣā́saḥ svadháyā madanti | ṛtáṃ śáṃsanta ṛtám ít tá āhuḥ ánu vratáṃ vrata-pā́ dīdhyā́nāḥ ||
The divine Hotṛ-priests, the first, take their seats; the seven strong ones rejoice in their own law of being. Proclaiming ṛta, they speak ṛta indeed; guarding the ordinances, they blaze in aspiration, following the vow.
