Sukta 1.165

Rishi: Agastya Mānavā
Devata: Indra speaking to the Maruts (dialogue)
Chandas: Tr̥ṣṭubh (probable; metrical verification recommended)

क्व स्या वो मरुतः स्वधासीद्यन्मामेकं समधत्ताहिहत्ये । अहं ह्युग्रस्तविषस्तुविष्मान्विश्वस्य शत्रोरनमं वधस्नैः ॥

kvà syā́ vo marutaḥ svadhā́sīd yán mām ékaṃ samádhattā́hihatye | aháṃ hy ùgrás tavíṣas tuvíṣmān víśvasya śátror ánamam vadhasnáiḥ ||

Wo war denn eure Svadhā, o Maruts, als ihr mich allein gegen das Erschlagen der Schlange stelltet? Denn ich — furchtbar, stark, höchst gewaltig — beugte jeden Feind des Alls mit meinen Waffen der Vollstreckung nieder.
