Sukta 6.20
दिवो न तुभ्यमन्विन्द्र सत्रासुर्यं देवेभिर्धायि विश्वम् । अहिं यद्वृत्रमपो वव्रिवांसं हन्नृजीषिन्विष्णुना सचानः ॥
divó ná túbhyam ánv indra satrā́ asúryaṃ devébhir dhāyi víśvam | áhíṃ yád vṛtrám apó vavrivā́ṃsaṃ hán ṛjīṣin víṣṇunā sacānáḥ ||
As from heaven, to you, O Indra, the divine world-order was set in place among the gods; when you slew the serpent Vṛtra who had covered the waters, O wielder of the tawny steeds, acting in companionship with Vishnu.
