Sukta 37
भी॒मा इन्द्र॑स्य हे॒तयः॑ श॒तमृ॒ष्टीर्हि॑र॒ण्ययीः॑ । ताभि॑र्हविर॒दान् ग॑न्ध॒र्वान॑वका॒दान् व्युऽषतु
bhīmā́ índrasya hetáyaḥ śatamṛṣṭī́r hiraṇyáyīḥ | tā́bhir haviradā́n gandharvā́n avakādā́n vy-uṣatu ||
Terrible are Indra’s missiles, golden, with a hundred edges: with these let them scorch away the Gandharvas, eaters of the oblation, the Avakāda-eaters.
इंद्र के बाण बहुत खतरनाक हैं। यह सोने के हैं और सौ धार वाले हैं। इन बाणों से गंधर्व और अवकाद खाने वाले को जला दो। यह लोग हवन का खाना खाते हैं, इन्हें सज़ा दो।
