RV 10.58.3

यत्ते॒ भूमिं॒ चतु॑र्भृष्टिं॒ मनो॑ ज॒गाम॑ दूर॒कम् । तत्त॒ आ व॑र्तयामसी॒ह क्षया॑य जी॒वसे॑ ॥
यत्ते भूमिं चतुर्भृष्टिं मनो जगाम दूरकम् । तत्त आ वर्तयामसीह क्षयाय जीवसे ॥

Translations:

Griffith: Thy spirit, that went far away, away to the four-cornered earth, We cause to come to thee again that thou mayst live and sojourn here.

Comment: There are believing the incorrect flat earth model. Even in flat earth there can be many different models like infinite one with no border, finite with circular border etc. There are believing in a finite square flat earth it seems.

RV 10.121.1

हि॒र॒ण्य॒ग॒र्भः सम॑वर्त॒ताग्रे॑ भू॒तस्य॑ जा॒तः पति॒रेक॑ आसीत् । स दा॑धार पृथि॒वीं द्यामु॒तेमां कस्मै॑ दे॒वाय॑ ह॒विषा॑ विधेम ॥
हिरण्यगर्भः समवर्तताग्रे भूतस्य जातः पतिरेक आसीत् । स दाधार पृथिवीं द्यामुतेमां कस्मै देवाय हविषा विधेम ॥

Translations:

Griffith: In the beginning rose Hiranyagarbha, born Only Lord of all created beings. He fixed and holdeth up this earth and heaven. What God shall we adore with our oblation?

Wilson: Hiraṇyagarbha was present at the beginning; when born, he was the sole lord of created beings; heupheld this earth and heaven– let us offer worship with an oblation to the divine Ka.

Comment: Again flat earth.

RV 10.121.7

आपो॑ ह॒ यद्बृ॑ह॒तीर्विश्व॒माय॒न्गर्भं॒ दधा॑ना ज॒नय॑न्तीर॒ग्निम् । ततो॑ दे॒वानां॒ सम॑वर्त॒तासु॒रेक॒: कस्मै॑ दे॒वाय॑ ह॒विषा॑ विधेम ॥
आपो ह यद्बृहतीर्विश्वमायन्गर्भं दधाना जनयन्तीरग्निम् । ततो देवानां समवर्ततासुरेकः कस्मै देवाय हविषा विधेम ॥

Translations:

Griffith: What time the mighty waters came, containing the universal germ, producing Agni, Thence sprang the Gods’ one spirit into being. What God shall we adore with our oblation?

Wilson: When the vast waters overspread the universe containing the germ and giving birth to Agni, then wasproduced the one breath of the gods – let us offer worship with an oblation to the divine Ka.

Comment: The universe isn’t filled with water. Water is actually very rare in our universe. Also giving birth to fire after earth and heaven are separated is nonsense. Earth is only 4.543 billion years. There were many burning stars before earth.
