RV 3 56.1
न ता मिनन्ति मायिनो न धीरा व्रता देवानाम् प्रथमा ध्रुवाणि । न रोदसी अद्रुहा वेद्याभिर् न पर्वता निनमे तस्थिवाꣳसः
na tā minanti māyino na dhīrā vratā devānām prathamā dhruvāṇi | na rodasī adruhā vedyābhir na parvatā niname tasthivāṁsaḥ
Neither the wielders of magic nor the wise damage them, the first, firm commandments (vrata) of the gods; nor are the two guileless worlds to be bent down by their devices, nor the mountains as they stand.
