The bearer of heaven, touched by its dust, the lofty chariot — not the wind — sets treasures in order; he who fashioned the regions made known the divided share of the sun, and measured out the strength of the kine.

📖 Book ReferenceWisdomLibRig Veda English TranslationSource ↗

The upholder of heaven and of the firmament, the wind, like a chariot traversing the upper (region) accompanied by the Vasus; the clother of the night (with gloom), the parent of the sun, the distributor of the portion (allotted to the pious), like the words (of the wealthy appropriating to all) the food.

📖 Book ReferenceRalph T.H. GriffithThe Rig Veda, 1896Source ↗

Supporting heaven, the high back of the region, his car is Vayu with his team of Vasus. Illumining the nights, the Sun's creator, like Dhisana he deals forth strength and riches.
