Recitation with translationRig Veda 1.80.15

nahi nu yād adhīmási indraṃ ko vīryā paraḥ | tasmin nṛmṇam uta kratuṃ devā ojāṃsi saṃ dadhuḥ arcann anu sva-rājyam ||

जब हम इंद्र को सबसे ऊपर मानते हैं, तो कौन है जो उसकी ताकत से बड़ा हो सकता है? देवताओं ने उसमें ताकत और समझ डाल दी है। गाने वाले लोग उसकी अपनी राज्य शक्ति के पीछे चले जाते हैं।
