10.42.9

u̱ta pra̱hām a̍ti̱dīvyā̍ jayāti kṛ̱taṁ yac chva̱ghnī vi̍ci̱noti̍ kā̱le |
yo de̱vakā̍mo̱ na dhanā̍ ruṇaddhi̱ sam it taṁ rā̱yā sṛ̍jati sva̱dhāvā̍n ||

Yea, by superior play he wins advantage, when he, a gambler, piles his gains in season. Celestial-natured, he o'erwhelms with riches the devotee who keeps not back his treasure.

Ralph T. H. Griffith 1889, The Hymns of the Rigveda
