Rig Veda 2.17.8: Mandala 2, Sukta 17, Mantra 8
Sukta 2.17
भोजं त्वामिन्द्र वयं हुवेम ददिष्ट्वमिन्द्रापांसि वाजान् । अविड्ढीन्द्र चित्रया न ऊती कृधि वृषन्निन्द्र वस्यसो नः ॥
bhójāṃ tvām indra vayáṃ huvema dadíṣ ṭvám indrāpā́ṃsi vā́jān | avíḍḍhīndra citráyā na ū́tī́ kṛdhí vṛṣann indra vásyaso naḥ ||
Dich, o Indra, rufen wir an als Bhoja, den Genießenden, den Herrn der Fülle; du, o Indra, gibst die Werke und die Vāja‑Kraft. Durchstoße für uns, o Indra, mit deiner lichten, vielfarbigen Hilfe; mache uns, o Stier der Macht, zu Besitzern des besseren Loses.
