Sukta 70
इन्द्रं वयं महाधन इन्द्रमर्भे हवामहे । युजं वृत्रेषु वज्रिणम्
índraṃ vayáṃ mahādhána índram árbhe havāmahe | yújaṃ vṛtréṣu vajríṇam ||
Indra—rich in mighty treasure—Indra we invoke, even in the lesser need: the yoked ally, the Vajra-bearer, amid the Vṛtras.
Rishi: Indra-stuti tradition (RV-derived; in AV 20 the seers follow the RV source-hymn attribution)
Devata: Indra (Vajrin)
Chandas: Anuṣṭubh (RV-style cadence; AV 20 often preserves RV meters)
