Sanskrit recitationRig Veda 4.17.10

ayáṃ śṛṇve ádha jáyann utá ghnann ayám utá prá kṛṇute yudhā́ gā́ḥ | yadā́ satyáṃ kṛṇuté manyúm índro víśvaṃ dṛḷháṃ bhayate éjad asmāt ||

Man hört ihn — dann siegt er und schlägt; er erringt im Kampf die Gās, die Strahlen. Wenn Indra seinen Zorn zur wahrhaften Kraft macht, erbebt alles Feste in Furcht vor ihm.
