Rig Veda

  1. O SAPIENT man, call the Two Gods, the very wise, who slay the foe. For Varuṇa, whose form is Law, place offerings for his great delight. 2 For they have won unbroken sway in full perfection, power divine. And, like high laws, the world of man hath been made beautiful as light. 3 Therefore we praise you that your cars may travel far in front of ours- You who accept the eulogy of Ratahavya with his hymns. 4 And ye show wMom, Wondrous Gods with fulness of intellIgence. By men’s discernment are Ve marked, O ye whose might is purified. 5 This is the Law sublime, O Earth: to aid the Ṛṣis’ toil for fame The Two, wide-spreading, are prepared. They come with ample overflow. 6 Mitra, ye Gods with wandering eyes, would that the worshippers and we Might strive to reach the realm ye rule, most spacious and protected well,
