Rig Veda 2.30.4: Mandala 2, Sukta 30, Mantra 4
Sukta 2.30
बृहस्पते तपुषाश्नेव विध्य वृकद्वरसो असुरस्य वीरान् । यथा जघन्थ धृषता पुरा चिदेवा जहि शत्रुमस्माकमिन्द्र ॥
bṛ́haspate tápūṣā́śneva vidhya vṛ́ka-dvaraso ásurasya vīrā́n | yáthā jaghántha dhṛṣatā́ purā́ cid evā́ jahi śátrum asmā́kam indra ||
O Bṛhaspati, pierce with the heat as with a stone the heroes of the Asura whose gates are wolf-like. As once you struck them down with bold force, so now too slay our enemy, O Indra.
