Sukta 8.37
सेहान उग्र पृतना अभि द्रुहः शचीपत इन्द्र विश्वाभिरूतिभिः । माध्यंदिनस्य सवनस्य वृत्रहन्ननेद्य पिबा सोमस्य वज्रिवः ॥

O gewaltiger Indra, voranstürmend, tritt den Trügen in den Schlachten entgegen – mit all deinen Hilfen (ūti). Beim Mittags-Pressopfer (savana), o Vṛtrahan, Tadelloser, trink vom Soma, o Vajrin, Träger der Vajra.
