sāsmā̱ ara̍m bā̱hubhyā̱ṁ yam pi̱tākṛ̍ṇo̱d viśva̍smā̱d ā ja̱nuṣo̱ veda̍sa̱s pari̍ |
yenā̍ pṛthi̱vyāṁ ni krivi̍ṁ śa̱yadhyai̱ vajre̍ṇa ha̱tvy avṛ̍ṇak tuvi̱ṣvaṇi̍ḥ ||

Fit for the grasping of his arms is what the Sire hath fabricated from all kind of precious wealth. The thunderbolt, wherewith, loud-roaring, he smote down, and striking him to death laid Krivi on the earth.
