Sukta 10.30

Devata: Āpaḥ (Waters); with Mitra-Varuṇa invoked as upholders of great dhāsi (support)

प्र देवत्रा ब्रह्मणे गातुरेत्वपो अच्छा मनसो न प्रयुक्ति । महीं मित्रस्य वरुणस्य धासिं पृथुज्रयसे रीरधा सुवृक्तिम् ॥

prá deva-trā́ bráhmaṇe gātúr etv ápo ácchā mánaso ná prá-yukti | mahī́ṃ mitrásya váruṇasya dhā́sīṃ pṛthú-jrayase rīradhā suvṛ́ktim ||

Que o caminho avance ao divino pela Palavra—Brahman; como um impulso guiado da mente, vai às Águas. Para o que vai longe, estabelece uma fala bem composta: grande é o poder sustentador de Mitra e de Varuṇa.
