Rig Veda 8.96.5: Mandala 8, Sukta 96, Mantra 5
Sukta 8.96
आ यद्वज्रं बाह्वोरिन्द्र धत्से मदच्युतमहये हन्तवा उ । प्र पर्वता अनवन्त प्र गावः प्र ब्रह्माणो अभिनक्षन्त इन्द्रम् ॥
ā́ yád vájraṃ bāhvór indra dhátse madá-cyutam áhaye hántavā́ u | prá párvatā án-avanta prá gā́vaḥ prá bráhmāṇo abhi-nákṣanta índram ||
Ketika engkau menempatkan Vajra di lenganmu, wahai Indra—mencurahkan ekstasi daya yang tak tergoyahkan—untuk membunuh Sang Ular, maka gunung-gunung melepaskan perlawanan; sinar-sinar (lembu-lembu) maju mendesak; dan mantra-mantra para ṛṣi bergerak menyongsong Indra.
