Rig Veda 10.74.5: Mandala 10, Sukta 74, Mantra 5
Sukta 10.74
शचीव इन्द्रमवसे कृणुध्वमनानतं दमयन्तं पृतन्यून् । ऋभुक्षणं मघवानं सुवृक्तिं भर्ता यो वज्रं नर्यं पुरुक्षुः ॥
śacī́-va indram ávase kṛṇudhvam anā́nataṃ damáyantaṃ pṛtanyū́n | ṛbhukṣáṇaṃ maghávānaṃ su-vṛktíṃ bhártā yó vájraṃ náryaṃ puru-kṣúḥ ||
O you who have the power of right action, make Indra for our help—he who does not bow, who tames the fighters within. The builder of effective works, the bountiful, the lord of a good word, he bears the manly thunder-force, wide in his power of increase.
