Sukta 7.28
हवं त इन्द्र महिमा व्यानड्ब्रह्म यत्पासि शवसिन्नृषीणाम् । आ यद्वज्रं दधिषे हस्त उग्र घोरः सन्क्रत्वा जनिष्ठा अषाळ्हः ॥
haváṃ ta indra mahimā́ vyā́naḍ bráhma yát pā́si śavasinn ṛ́ṣīṇām | ā́ yád vájraṃ dadhíṣe hásta ugra ghoráḥ sán kratvā́ janiṣṭhāḥ áṣāḷhaḥ ||
The call to you, O Indra, has spread your greatness—this brahman which you protect by your force among the seers. When you set the thunderbolt in your hand, fierce and formidable, you are born by will as the unconquered power.
