उद् उ ष्य देवः सविता सवाय शश्वत्तमꣳ तदपा वह्निर् अस्थात् । नूनꣳ देवेभ्यो वि हि धाति रत्नम् अथाभजद् वीतिहोत्रꣳ स्वस्तौ

Up has that god Savitā risen for the impelling, the draught-conveyor, most constant in that work. Now indeed he apportions treasure to the gods, and he gave a share, in welfare, to him whose oblation is enjoyed.
