Rig Veda 7.65.3

ता भूरिपाशावन्र्तस्य सेतू दुरत्येतू रिपवे मर्त्याय | रतस्य मित्रावरुणा पथा वामपो न नावा दुरिता तरेम

IAST Romanisation

tā bhūripāśāvanṛtasya setū duratyetū ripave martyāya | ṛtasya mitrāvaruṇā pathā vāmapo na nāvā duritā tarema

English Translation (Griffith)

Bonds of the sinner, they bear many nooses: the wicked mortal hardly may escape them. Varuṇa-Mitra, may your path of Order bear us o’er trouble as a boat o’er waters.
