Rig Veda 1.55.5: Mandala 1, Sukta 55, Mantra 5
Sukta 1.55
स इन्महानि समिथानि मज्मना कृणोति युध्म ओजसा जनेभ्यः । अधा चन श्रद्दधति त्विषीमत इन्द्राय वज्रं निघनिघ्नते वधम् ॥
sa ín mahā́ni samithā́ni majmánā kṛṇóti yudhmá ójasā jánebhyaḥ | ádhā caná śrád dadhati tviṣī́mate índrāya vájraṃ ni-gháni-ghnate vadhám ||
Er vollbringt wahrlich die großen Schlachten durch seine Fülle — der Kämpfer — mit Kraft für die Völker. Dann setzen sie ihr Vertrauen in den Strahlenden; für Indra schmieden sie den Vajra, schlagend und wieder schlagend, und formen die tötende Macht gegen das Hindernis.
