Rig Veda 4.21.3: Mandala 4, Sukta 21, Mantra 3
Sukta 4.21
आ यात्विन्द्रो दिव आ पृथिव्या मक्षू समुद्रादुत वा पुरीषात् । स्वर्णरादवसे नो मरुत्वान्परावतो वा सदनादृतस्य ॥
ā́ yā́tv índro divá ā́ pṛthivyā́ mákṣū samudrā́d utá vā́ purī́ṣāt | svàr-narād ávase no marútvān parāváto vā́ sádanād ṛtásya ||
Let Indra come from heaven, from earth, swiftly from the ocean-depth or from the rich fullness (purīṣa). From the luminous man-strength (svar-narā), for our protection, with the Maruts, let him come—whether from the far beyond or from the seat of the Truth (ṛta).
